 Have you tried 'delete' or 'backspace' on your keyboard?


 For some reason, didn't work and so had to do multiple 'undo' actions.

The following should work for all insets (boxes) in LyX:

* Place cursor just in front of (but outside) the inset and press
  [Delete].

* Place cursor just behind (but outside) the inset and press [Backspace].

* Highight the inset and press delete.

* Close the inset and it behaves like a normal character. (Actually, it
  does so also if it is open and you are outside the inset.)

Anyway.

Tried to insert a graphic into a document but the help does not give
any instructions to delete a graphic?

Reading the help manual further, now realise there is a function,
'insert float figure'. Why is there 'insert graphic'?

'Float figures' are different from 'graphics': the former often
contains the latter. The same applies for 'Float tables'. This should
be explained in the docs.
