Re: shadow colour box

Hello, I use this settings to underline definitions and it works fine. Maybe you can try to change the 0.25 and 0.75 values to 0.5. One the the value is for the box color and the other is for the background (I don't remember which one). You can also change the definition of the color (I haven't

placing figures _below_ footnotes?

I have a situation here where a figure is placed at the bottom of a page _below_ the footnotes which go on this page. For float placement I have specified "htb". Does anybody know how to avoid this? From my perspective, footnotes should really be at the bottom of a page. -- Friedemann Baitinger

shadow colour box

I tried Yann Collet(t)e's suggestion for making a shadow box. which was: in the preamble - \usepackage{color, calc} \definecolor{gris}{gray}{0.25} \definecolor{contourgris}{gray}{0.75} and in the document, I surrounded a paragraph with red TeX \fcolorbox{contourgri

Annother feature would be the option to remove words you added to your dictionary. Because I am sloppy at 3.00 in the morning, I sometimes hit "add to dictionary" on a word that shouldn't be added. That word then keeps coming up in the list of suggestions, and it gets missed on subsequent spellche

Re: spellchecker feature suggestion

I think in case two intended words are (mis)spelled in the same way. In that case, when the spellchecker bypasses you, you don't catch it. But I think that occurrence is rare. And you only fail to catch it when you don't proofread, in which case you deserve it. On Wed, 14 Feb 2001, you wrote: >

How do I stop table linebreaks introducing a \smallskip{} ?

Hi all I am trying to generate a table using the linebreaks option. My problem is that when lyx creates the \parbox it also adds a \smallskip{} at the beginning and end of the paragraph. This places spaces at the top and the bottom of the cell--a feature I don't want as none of the other
