Does this mean that it should be disabled when in one-column mode? This is limiting from latex point of view, but it seems better in terms of intuitiveness. Are there many people out there who like to mark their floats as narrow/wide although they are in a one-column document (probably because the doc will become two-columns later)?

BTW should the default be 'wide' or not?

So I can change the label if we have a good Juergen> solution. Did you take a look at http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=394 It would be nice to apply in some form the patch which is there. I planned at some time to add it to 1.2.x, but I never did it (I remember there was something I did not like, but what??). Also, make sure that this handling and interfece is the same as for minipages (are there other things that use this placement thing?). JMarc
