is there a way to modify the default font for a table? it would be
nice to change the font settings in two different ways.
(1) a latex command in the preamble so that the font size and style
would be consistent for the entire document, regardless of what
appears on the screen in lyx
(2) a way to change the table font size and style that doesn't
require clicking the "apply last" or "Text Style" buttons. in
particular, if i create a table (say 5 x 5), then the empty cells
have the default document font for standard text. i can highlight all
the cells in the table and change the font with options in the Text
Style window. however, this only works if a cell already contains
text. also, if i delete all the text in a cell, then the custom font
that reverts back to the standard. i could wait until i've completed
the table before making a final change to the font, but it would be
great to be able to set this once, especially since i often add
columns or rows to the table and then have to go back to fix the font
size and style so it matches the rest of the table.
i'm really interested in a solution to number 2.
in an attempt to come up with a work around, i've tried creating a
custom bind for the "apply last" command, which seems to be font-free-
apply. however, i've been unsuccessful in getting this to work. any
suggestions for this?
thanks,
