Here is a question along the same lines: How can I modify the number
of environments shown by default?
By default, it shows 10 different types and you have to scroll up or
down.
Ideally, I would like all the environments shown with the current
one highlighted.
This has always bugged me, as I find myself scrolling up and down
for some environments.
My solution is to use shortcuts, rather than searching in this list. I
devote Alt-p (M-p) to this, and have shortcuts like:
\bind "M-p p" "layout Proof"
\bind "M-p c" "layout LyX-Code"
\bind "M-p a" "layout Author"
\bind "M-p S-A" "layout Abstract"
\bind "M-p f" "layout BeginFrame"
\bind "M-p d" "layout Definition"
\bind "M-p S-D" "layout Description"
\bind "M-p S-L" "layout Lemma"
\bind "M-p S-C" "layout Corollary"
\bind "M-p S-T" "layout Theorem"
\bind "M-p S-P" "layout Proposition"
\bind "M-p S-E" "layout Example"
\bind "M-p S-F" "layout Fact"
\bind "M-p S-N" "layout Note"
\bind "M-p C-d" "layout Definition*"
\bind "M-p C-l" "layout Lemma*"
\bind "M-p C-c" "layout Corollary*"
\bind "M-p C-t" "layout Theorem*"
\bind "M-p C-p" "layout Proposition*"
\bind "M-p C-e" "layout Example*"
\bind "M-p C-f" "layout Fact*"
\bind "M-p C-n" "layout Note*"
Note that M-p 1,2,3,4,5 etc are already assigned to chapter, section,
subsection etc.

Or M-p <space> to drop the list down, then repeatedly hit the first
letter of the environment you want (for instance, 'A' to get author)
until you get it.
