John,
You are perhaps too familiar with it. I can see how a new user would have
problems understanding. The exact procedure I use is:
1. Insert > Floats > Figure.
2. With the cursor at "Figure#" press Enter. The cursor is now inside the
red outline of the float, on the line above "Figure#".
Todd,
Have you tried using Grace? Lyx accepts Grace files as figures, and it's
pretty good at producing any kind of graph.

Have occasionally increased the number when switching between more than four
files in different dire
No problem with the default number of files shown being 9.

F using Word, but it was relatively easy with LyX.
Today I finished a 33-page report with 30 figures. My total time for
completing the report was about eight hours, of which 75% was spent extracting
figures from PowerPoint presentations made by my collaborators and editing
them to look decent.

One thing you do not mention is handling figures. The documents I work
with tend to be very heavily illustrated, and I like LyX because it
handles figures so much better than Word that there is no co
