Hi Etinne, I know you won't exactly love this solution, but it does work. You can remove the extra space again simply by entering a spacer with a user value with a negative in front. eg -1 em. This removes the text up a line again. You have to give LyX more of a chance. Writing in LaTeX requires

wrapfigure environment options

2008-06-28 Thread James Sutherland
