Well, same issue, if I set a minipage to 1 inch wide or whatever, thne
it'd be nice to have some idea visually.

It's collapsed, its routine does :

        int ideal_width(...) {
                if (collapsed())
                        return COLLAPSED_PIXELS;
                ...
        }

I still don't get your question.

I can't provide a recipe right now, I have no access to a lyx I can run.
