Dear all
I am writing a book and I need colored examples contained in colored
boxes. I get the boxes but do not know how to number them (and
reference them) automatically for each chapter separately as Fig. 1.1
and Fig. 1.2, ..
I think you can just put the colored box inside a figure float. But it
would probably be neater to to create a custom float and custom float
style. Most of that is a LaTeX thing rather than a LyX thing. See e.g.
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Floats,_Figures_and_Captions
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/95631/defining-a-new-type-of-floating-environment
Getting the new float to show up in LyX requires a little bit of layout
code, which can be adapated from stdfloats.inc, which can be found in
the system layout/ directory.
