LyX efficient language/spell-check toggle

[alex]

Hello everyone.

I have been using LyX as my LaTeX editor of choice for quite some time 
now, and I have found it to be quite helpful. I have also managed to set 
up spell checking for both the languages that I am interested in, 
English and Greek. However, the way that I currently toggle between 
those languages is quite inconvenient. That is, I use Alt + Shift to 
toggle between languages (as I usually do), which achieves the 
transition from one language to another. However, that's not enough to 
get LyX to toggle to the latter language. LyX keeps spell-checking using 
the former language. I have to use a second keyboard shortcut to get LyX 
to switch languages, as far as spell-checking goes. For example, I have 
to use 2 keyboard shortcuts in order to go from writing English 
characters with English spell-checking to writing Greek characters with 
Greek spell-checking, and vice versa. Obviously, those are one too many 
shortcuts.

So, my question is: can LyX be configured so that toggling between 
languages is made by one keyboard shortcut, or maybe so that LyX senses 
the keyboard layout (GR or US) in use and spell-checks appropriately?

This is an issue that has been bothering me for quite some time, and any 
help would be very much appreciated.

I believe it's irrelevant, but right now I am working on a Linux Mint 
system. However, I have faced the same issue in windows.

I have already posted the same question on the latex forums, on the LyX 
section, but after that realized that LyX has a mailing list, so I 
figured I would try my luck here as well.

Cheers.
