Open a footnote. Type a few characters, then hit emphasize (Ctrl-E,
however you like). When you start typing now, the characters will be the
wrong size. This does not affect LaTeX output, but only the on-screen
rendering. This happens ONLY when you are at the end of the inset, and
only if you have not backed up or something. It's most obvious if you
put a footnote in a section title, for example. Then you get huge,
sans-serif italics, e.g.

This is in both branch and trunk. Presumably the old font or something
is still set to whatever was outside the inset.



This sounds like #7515 which I reported in April 2011. It also 
occurred with margin notes. I see it has, Keywords: cosmetic; 
Priority: lowest; Severity: trivial (all of which sound like a great 
spur to developers to roll up their sleeves and resolve it).


I've fixed the priority. Unfortunately, I don't really know much about 
how LyX handles fonts, so I'm not likely to be able to fix it.
