I’m trying to figure out how the books draw a box perhaps with different background around a digression/example? Preferably how this would be accomplished in lyx, but latex solution would be welcomed as well 😀

    The color package should allow you to use the \colorbox command.

    Examples (cited from this page, where you will find more details):

    \colorbox{red}{Black text on red background}

\fcolorbox{blue}{red}%
  {Black text, red background, blue frame}

    If you need just a border and no background color, the built-in \fbox{text} command should do fine.
