Oh. I got it.
Thanks.
I am trying to expand the support of the IEEEtran layout in LyX, and on the
format for Computer Society Conferences the following could be read:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
% *** SUBFIGURE PACKAGES ***
(...)
%\usepackage[caption=false]{caption}
%\usepackage[font=footnotesize]{subfig}
% subfig.sty, also written by Steven Douglas Cochran, is the modern
% replacement for subfigure.sty. However, subfig.sty requires and
% automatically loads Axel Sommerfeldt's caption.sty which will override
% IEEEtran.cls handling of captions and this will result in nonIEEE style
% figure/table captions. To prevent this problem, be sure and preload
% caption.sty with its "caption=false" package option. This is will preserve
% IEEEtran.cls handing of captions. Version 1.3 (2005/06/28) and later
% (recommended due to many improvements over 1.2) of subfig.sty supports
% the caption=false option directly:
%\usepackage[caption=false,font=footnotesize]{subfig}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, if I understand everything well, and since LyX will only load the
caption package if it wasn't already loaded, I do not have to care about
this, right?
Cheers,
