when trying to set the page size of a document to a custom size I notized that

Any ideas?
enable the custom margins, then LyX enables the use
of the geometry package. But This is still a bug.

Alas, your Kornel didn't show any errors, but it didn't show the graph n the 
generated dvi or pdf !!!
Alains problem was, that he insert the image into the
caption, which causes an error. It is a bit difficult
to insert a float in the right way. With Insert-Float
LyX is by default in the caption mode, where you
should not insert the image or tabular. Insert the
caption, hit enter and then the  image/table.
If you want the image/tabular before the caption, then
put the cursor in front of the caption and  then enter.

You can cut the image from the caption line
and paste it into a new line with standard layout.
The only problem is, that LyX doesn't realize, that
there was a graphic inserted, so it doesn't write
into the preamble \usepackage{graphicx}.

I know I've posted this before, but there was no reply. I would like to

there are several solutions and if I remeber well, there
is an option for the different KOMA classes.

your code is okay, I have no problems running it with LaTeX.

2. define a new macro by typing:

You always use inline math, which is very easy to frame
and so there is no need for an separate box.
A problem is a framed display math. There is a solution
with package varwidth
\usepackage{varwidth}
\newcommand{\myMathBox}[1]{%

\abovedisplayskip=0pt

to get a narrower frame is possible, but then we have to rewrite
