Here is a snippet from my bind file; using these commands, you could highlight 4 paragraphs with 4 keystrokes. \bind "S-C-Up" "paragraph-up-select" \bind "S-C-Down" "paragraph-down-select" If you are unfamiliar with using key bindings, see the LyX User's Guide and Customization help. > This seemingly small problem is quite big.
