A similar (ab?)use of LyX-Notes is defining a math-macro for a command provided by a package or some other means: This will ensure the replacement is shown in LyX instead of some evil red... IMO, a "LyX-Note" could be defined as LyX-Note: seen by LyX but hidden from LaTeX. it is in a certain way the opposite of an ERT-box, which allows commands to LaTeX 'unseen' by LyX. It is my conviction, that such a tool is needed much the same as the ERT is needed for "corner cases". If we forbid the use of a LyX-Note in these cases, we would have to re-invent this tool. > I think notes should not be > part of the outliner... I would prefer to keep the LyX-note as-is and fix and propagate branches for text-parts that should be hidden to both, LyX and LaTeX. Günter
