I started using the wonderful tcolorbox package in Lyx. As can be seen in the first and second pictures, I added the module "fancy color boxes" in the settings, and then chose "insert" > "custom insets" > "color box".

enter image description here

enter image description here

I also added these commands to the preamble:

\usepackage{tcolorbox}

\usepackage{tikz}

I tried modifying the design of the color box, as can be seen in the following picture:

enter image description here

I added a color box options inset, inside the color box, and wrote a simple command for the title of the box, its background color, and its frame color.

I got the error above. I searched it on the internet, but couldn't find a way to fix it. Does anybody know what is the problem, and how can it be fixed?

thanks in advance

So, apparently Lyx "adds" the command \textenglish to the color box options, because it "thinks" I changed the language to English (I write my document in Hebrew).

The solution is adding the following commands to the local layout of the document:

Format 66 InsetLayout Flex:Color_Box Argument 1 LabelString "Color Box Options" Tooltip "Insert the color box options here (see tcolorbox manual)" PassThru 1 EndArgument ResetsFont true End

Many thanks to Udi Foglle (who is an honored member of this community) who told me what was the problem, and instructed me how to fix it. I wouldn't be able to answer my own question without his help. So, all the credit goes to Udi.
