Because publishers get grumpy when they see a lot of extra fluff hanging

no clue what the difference between Section and Section* is.
Devvies - what about the possibility of changing "Section*" to "Unnumbered
Section", etc.? Granted you might have to make the menu panel wider ...

See Section 1.8.3 "Wrapping Text Around Figures" and Section 5.3 "Wrapping
Text Around Figures (and Tables) - Revisited" in the Extended Features

X actually is. LyX is one tool among many for
preparing documents, and is developed and maintained by a bunch of
volunteers who work on it solely for the love of developing a useful
program. Please turn off your flamethrower, read the LyX Tutorial (at
minumum), then reframe your questions in an non-confrontational tone.

It's already there. In your ~/.lyx/lyxrc file, change "\bind_file cua" to
"\bind_file emacs".

Add \widowpenalty=1000 and \clubpenalty=1 to the LaTeX preamble. This
is in the FAQ, BTW.

(I don't care about all the internal guts changes) so that we catch
everything.
Remember that at least a small part of what makes LyX so good is that it
is well documented ...

There is a FAQ: Help->FAQ in modern versions of LyX. Of course, I don't
know if I've answered this particular question yet ...

Robin,
I am one of the more active members of the LyX documentation team. If no
one from the core development team has responded to your request, let me
know and I'll provide whatever information you need. Thanks for your
interest in adding LyX.

Seems to depend on the figure and the text. I've had mixed success with
all of the above - and I wrote the docs. No matter what, you have to be
prepared to do some tinkering to make

RTFM. (Yea! I get to say it :-) Specifically, Chapter 6 of the
Customization doc. I wrote it, so let me know if it is useful.
