This should be \begin{center} \end{center} around the figure (not the
entire float).

Easier is placing the cursor before or behing the figure and
Format>Paragraph Centered.

But better is just \centering befor the figure (in ERT, of
course), as the center environment inserts additional vertical space.

Matt;
My Document settings has \centre in the "float placement" field, and
I've even tried {\begin center} {\end center} around the floats, but no
luck.
Any ideas?
Click in the float. Then from menu select 
Layout>>Paragraph>>alignment>>center

Hope thats what you mean.

Centering a Float in Lyx

2005-04-19 Thread Matt Williams
Dear List,

Despite reading and re-reading the lyx FAQ and User Guide, I'm still
having problems centering floats;

My Document settings has \centre in the "float placement" field, and
I've even tried {\begin center} {\end center} around the floats, but no
luck.

Any ideas?
