This is not a (some) bug of LyX, but the behaviour of LateX. So far I can see, none of the paragraphs will be indented in a \flushleft environment. Moreover, a vertical space is introduced between two \flushleft environments. Although LyX suggests that left alignment means 'no justification', it should only be used if you want the aforementioned behaviour. Maybe this should be presented less confusing in the Paragraph settings dialog. Second, wouldn't it be nice to have a document setting saying whether you would like to indent the first the first paragraph after a section heading. I don't know for English, but at least in Dutch it is common practice not to indent. If you want this, you now have to select each first paragraph individually and say it should not be aligned. This unavoidably leads to documents in which some of the first paragraphs are indented and some others are not (if you are not that awake constantly). Vincent
