I just had a look. There is relsize.sty, but this seems only to change the fontsize of standard environments (could be used to make petite notes of one environment type).

It sounds logical to me, since (intention-wise) an annotation (Ia) is a completely different thing than the preparation of different results for different purposes (Ib). Of course a reasonable scenario is the combination of the two approaches, like: make a branch "draft", where my comments will get printed Greyedout. But this can be achieved by nesting Ia into Ib. > > WRT petite > > and probably greyedout I am not shure if this is in fact not a character > > style and should be handled in the hopefully-eventually-coming character > > style sheme of LyX. > > No, I disagree.
