Upgrading from lyx 1.1.6 to 1.2 had severe impact on the layout of my thesis. In Version 1.1.6 I used minipages to put the figure captions beside the figure. It was simple and worked nice ! I have noticed that the "paragraph layout" popup menu has changed in Version 1.2 in sofar that minipages cannot be chosen by pressing the extra buttion (as it was in Version1.1.6) in the paragraph layout menu. In 1.2. I have tried to use the "sidefig.sty" for positioning the captions, but I do not like it very much and I have not found a way to insert cross-reference marks. Does anybody have an easy solution for this problem ? (I do not want to reweite the whole thing!)
Thanks in advance, Leondios
