I am having problems with greyed out note ...:

(1) Select Itemize, (2) write "Hello Bob", (3) select (i.e.
highlight) "Bob", and (4) go to Insert->Note and select "Greyed
out"

In my installation, a note containing "Bob" and inheriting the
itemize style is created. That is, the note's text appears as a new
indented item.

Uwe> Confirmed, please fill out a bug report at bugzilla.lyx.org

Note that, as far as I know, this bug has nothing to do with Notes,
but is general to all collapsable insets (footnote, short title, ...).

It is already reported here:

http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2723

However, this might not be the best place. Maybe a new bug concerning all collapsable insets should be reported.


The problem is that I cannot tell what the good behaviour is. If you
did select the whole line and chose insert note, you would have
expected to keep the itemize layout wouldn't you?

Yes, I would expect that. In general I would just expect that the words I select are changed into grey, without any other changes to the document. This behaviour would be consistent in all situations. For example, if I select a word within a given paragraph and transform it into a greyed note, I do not expect a new paragraph to be created for the note's text. I just expect the note's text to be changed into grey. If I select the whole paragraph, I expect the whole paragraph to be in grey. The same applies to itemize.

The case of footnote is slightly different, I think. However, the case of short title is exactly the same.


Since this feature uses cut and paste internally, I guess the question
is "what happens if you copy a word from an enumeration to an empty
paragraph?" When shall we copy the style along with the text?
