Figures in Lyx
I would like to insert a figure in Lyx just after a paragraph of text. I follow the procedure but the figure goes always on the top of the page...
Thank you for your help !

Figures in Lyx
Note that a .lyx file is just a text file so you can open in a text editor and paste a MWE as code here.

welcome to the forum!
Check the float placement options. Perhaps mark all places as allowed here:
So top of page, bottom of page, here if possible, ignore LaTeX rules (relaxes positioning) - but don't check "Here definitely" (overriding automatic positioning can cause bad page breaks and undesired white space).
And ensure that the figure is not too big to fit on the page, so it goes on top of the next page.
