Under File Formats its not possible to change anything. I can type eg.
KPDF under viewer for PDF(pdflatex) but its not possible save or choose
apply.
Are you clicking Modify before Save? Or do you mean that the Modify
button is disabled when you try this?
The shortcuts do exist :
Ctrl-D to view DVI (compile)
Shift-Ctrl-D to update DVI
You can see then in some menus.
There are also the usual Alt/Meta shortcuts ( the letters are underlined
in the different menus ).
You can also define your own key bindings (see manual "Customize").
In the Customize manual it says that you can make your own mappings in the
.kmap file:
The .kmap File
A .kmap file maps keystrokes to characters or strings. As the name
suggests it sets a keyboard mapping. The .kmap file keywords
kmap,kmod,ksmod, and kcomb are described in this section.
kmap Map a character to a string
But I don't want to change the kmapping I only want to make shortcuts.
Shortcuts are done in the binding file. Tools -> Preferences... -> User
interface -> bind file is where you choose this. You can copy your
current bind file from <lyx root>/Resources/bind to <home>/.lyx/bind (or
the equivalent Windows or Mac OS directory), edit it with a text editor,
then select the modified file in the Preferences dialog. Adding
bindings (shortcuts) is explained in the customization manual, and the
syntax is pretty self-evident if you look at your current bind file.
Note that shortcuts for menu items are defined in the user interface
(ui) file, also selectable in the preferences dialog. You'll want to
avoid using those key combinations for shortcuts in your bind file.
Also pay attention to whether your bind file loads other bind files. If
you define a shortcut near the top of a bind file, and it later loads
another bind file that assigns the same keys to a different command, the
second definition will overwrite yours. (An obvious solution is to put
your shortcuts last in your bind file.)
