Allow page break in boxes........

[Charlie]

Hello Everyone,

Using Debian Jessie, LyX 2.0.6. But even Wheezy and before that.

I just read this:

http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/63861

The above exchange seemed weird, because I have never had any type of
box in Lyx that allowed page breaks? Even a frameless box, which is
hardly a box at all?

Maybe I'm missing something.

The "Allow page breaks" option is always greyed out. If I use 100%
column or less.

Maybe this is just the case in koma-script pages?

Or, is something missing here?

Please note I am only curious, as when I've need a page break in a box,
just create another box.

Be well,
Charlie

Sorry for the noise.

Played round and found that had to \usepackage{framed} and then went
single frame. Not realising that double frame is a box within a box.

So it works like that.

You do not have to load framed manually. Just insert a Box with a simple
frame. Then, in the Box settings dialog, select "no inner box (no Parbox or
Minipage)". Then you can check "allow page breaks". This loads framed
internally.

From my keyboard:

Thank you Jürgen,

It works a treat just as you say. I didn't think to look at the
"Inner box" setting to see if there was something that might be
done there.

I started the box off as a double frame box.

Thank you again,
Charlie
