is it possible to inser a Linebreak after the paragraph-style? If you're using the LaTeX document classes then the answer is "not easily". I've done it myself by modifying the article.cls file (and calling it myarticle.cls). It's quite easy if you know any TeX: I just copied the definition of

How can I make Bibliography show up as a TOC item, e.g., It seems that LyX needs a FAQ. But more to the point, there should be an easy way of making starred sections show up in the TOC. For the Bibliography, it should default to showing up (because that's what most people want). I think this is

I hope LyX is gradually moving towards making it easier to customise at different levels to support currently unsupported LaTeX packages and applications. I'm interested in being able to customise the menus (this could also be useful to *remove* unused options). In particular, I'd like to be
