Changing the Caption of Pictures

Post by tehir »

Hey!
I am currently trying ti work with Lyx for my thesis, that are coming up this march. I am a crude beginner, so sorry for the questions, but since my english ist poor I could not find any help on the internet.

I want to change the caption of my pictures, that were inserted as float object. For example it know says "Abbildung 1:..." (its german, using the Koma script). But I want it to say: "Bild 1:...".

I am thankful for any help!
