Hi All,

I'm writing quite a lot of documents in LyX and am starting to
get tired of moving the mouse to the upper left selection box
in order to select what kind of text to write (Standard, Title,
Section, LyX-Code, etc).  Is there any way to either bind
keyboard shortcuts or get buttons for the kinds of text I use
the most? It's the browsing in the list that annoys me.


There are shortcuts for some environments (particularly M-p s to get back to the standard environment), but there are too many environments to give them all shortcuts. I agree with you about mousing over to the list. What I use is M-p space, which opens the list. Then type the first letter of what you want. When there are multiple environments starting with the same letter, you can either keep banging on that letter (it will cycle through them) or type the first few letters (if you're fast enough -- if you pause between letters one and two, LyX will think letter two is the first letter of what you really want).
