Automatic width setting in LyX
8
Is there any preference setting so that LyX automatically adjusts images width to linewidth when they are added, instead of doing so by hand whenever a new image is inserted?

You can set the keys associated with includegraphics globally in your LaTeX Preamble by adding to it
setkeys{Gin}{width=linewidth}
This will resize all images (either enlarging or shrinking) to make them fit to linewidth. If you only wish to shrink image that are too large, you can use (from Resize images to half of text width only if too big for page margin):
makeatletter
setkeys{Gin}{width=ifdimGin@nat@width>linewidth
linewidth
else
Gin@nat@width
fi}
makeatother
Here Gin@nat@width is the natural width of the image to be included.

This works perfectly if there are figure floats, otherwise causes latex to crash. How can I put this in an if statement such thatif there is at least a figure float setkeys{Gin}{width=linewidth} else do nothing fi

@BerkerPeköz: That should not be the case. No figure floats typically mean noincludegraphicsand therefore no use of theGinfamily of keys. One can test for the number offigures, say, in a document, but that should not be necessary here. Perhaps you can show your code to identify where you may be going wrong...?

thanks for your quick response after all these years :) A simple MWE would bedocumentclass{IEEEtran} setkeys{Gin}{width=linewidth} begin{document} This is a MWE end{document}If a figure float is present, the command runs beautifully but if not, it causes pdflatex to crash. I've been commenting it out when there is no figure and enable it as I add one, but I'm trying to automate this process with an if statement.

now it's robust to not having figures, and the solution is simple and beautiful it doesn't even need if statements. thank you so much :)
