Or just allow lyxfunc grouping. In emacs, it would look something like this: ( (paragraph-general-set-alignment left) (paragraph-general-set-pagebreaks above) ) and lyx knows not to do any screen updates until I gets to the end of the (compound) command. I recall sequences of commands like this being discussed a while back and people didn't like them, though.. Jules
