the format of all of the manuals.

Text overflows onto new pages in a vertical fashion, hence the need for
only a vertical scrollbar.
There are three cases where you might want a horizontal scrollbar.
- The first case is large figures, displayed WYSIWYG\SpecialChar \@.
- This, however, is due
- to a flaw in the routine that displays graphics on the LyX screen in a
- WYSIWYG fashion; it should rescale the graphics to fit in the window, just
- as you'd need to rescale graphics to fit on a page.

The second and third cases are tables and equations which are wider than
the LyX window.
