Problem with a table...

Both columns of your table are of type l, which does not break lines. Use m-columns as mentioned earlier.

is there a way to switch to m-columns in LyX, so i don't have to use LyX AND another latex editor at the same time?

OK, i have found a solution to half of the problem.
thanks for the advice for m-column. it brought me to this site, which helped:
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Tables#toc4

now, setting a defined table width leads to line breaks in the columns.
so far, so good.

but i still have the problem of having the picture stick out too far. or put another way, the text after the table still overlaps with the picture, if the height of the picture is larger than the height of the text inside of the table.

Hm, I would test it, but I would need the code. Maybe you can prepare a LyX example with that table, and post the LaTeX export and the image here in the forum, as attachment?
