I'm making lists of addresses in columns, and wondered if someone
knows of a convenient way to keep the address blocks from being
split at the bottoms of the columns.  I've been typing C-<ret>
after the lines within the address block, so that each address
becomes a paragraph.  The address blocks have between three and
six lines each.

I put \begin{multicols}{3}... \end{multicols} around the addresses,
then select the whole thing and apply a minipage to it with
Layout->Paragraph.

I can fiddle with spacing above and below the paragraphs when
doing the Layout bit, and I can insert \newpage after particular
addresses to push them to the next column, but of course, all
this fiddling must be done over again whenever anyone is added
or deleted from the list.

I was hoping there was some elegant way to tell LyX "don't split
this paragraph---adjust the column height accordingly."  Anyone
have a suggestion?

TIA

Jim
