Hello Lyx developer,

Congratulations with 1.3.0. I love the Qt frontend!

I've a rather serious problem though that stops me from switching to 1.3.0 for 
production. Using floating graphs gives latex errors.

This is what I do:

compile lyx with qt frontend
remove history for the sake of reproducability: rm -rf ~/.lyx
open lyx
new file: ctrl-n
insert->float->figure
insert->graphics (graphic is rendered in lyx window correclty)
preview: ctrl-t

error message: There were errors during the LaTeX run.
2 errors detected.
You should try to fix them.

The first error reads:
Paragraph ended before \@caption was complete.
 ...thesis_polyampholytes_kaleidagraph_GPpH5}}
                                                  
I suspect you've forgotten a `}', causing me to apply this
control sequence to too much text. How can we recover?
My plan is to forget the whole thing and hope for the best.

The second error reads:
Argument of \@caption has an extra }.
 ...thesis_polyampholytes_kaleidagraph_GPpH5}}
                                                  
I've run across a `}' that doesn't seem to match anything.
For example, `\def\a#1{...}' and `\a}' would produce
this error. If you simply proceed now, the `\par' that
I've just inserted will cause me to report a runaway
argument that might be the root of the problem. But if
your `}' was spurious, just type `2' and it will go away.

I hope this helps you improve lys,
Jos van den Oever
