Many thanks,

your changes are in the just released manual version "1.4.3-0" together 
with some other important fixes to the box section:

The manual is for Vesion 1.4.3. Please send changes in theformat of LyX 
1.4. because LyX 1.5svn is not in UI freeze.

Update to: [announce] new extended LyX manual available

I'm happily surprized that I got so much feedback about this.

Beginning from now on, the manual has a version number, according to 
LyX's version numbering scheme, to separate different versions.

The just released version 1.4.3-0 contains the bugfixes and annotations 
I received since my first announcement.
(The most notable change is the description of what happens when you 
don't set an Inner Box for boxes.)

You can download the new manual version from here:
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/DocumentationDevelopment#Extended-Insets

The Wiki page does now also reflect that you need to download the 
RAR-archive file with the images used in the document to compile the 
LyX-file.

regards Uwe

Re: Update to: [announce] new extended LyX manual available

at a glance the wiki page is quite confusing.

perhaps a sentence on which files contains what - and how they are related
to the build-in documentation?

Re: Update to: [announce] new extended LyX manual available

Without having actually looked at your manual yet, I want to thank you
for this effort, and for the general idea to improve the documentation!
Many open source projects underestimate the importance of accessible
information and manuals. Lyx used to be a notable exception, but
although 1.4 took so long, the documentation seems to lag behind and
therefore is not as useful as it was for 1.3, IMHO. I hope your work
will be successful in correcting that!

Cheers,
Sven

It compresses better.

I changed the archives from rar to zip.
