Sure, I will take notice of the thread organization. I am new to mailing lists.

Yes, the "unwanted formatting" refer to {\large\par}.

Here is a (really) MWE.

I selected the whole line, maybe lyx sees it as a paragraph.

First, please bottom post.

Second, does the "unwanted formatting" refer to {\large\par}? If so, we
would need a minimal example. It would need to be a self-contained
document (your previous MWE had include commands for child documents not
attached to the message), preferably with as little customization as
possible. Every package you add, font or language change you make, etc.
makes it a bit less likely that someone on the list has all the packages
necessary to compile your MWE.

If by "unwanted formatting" you mean that you really want the LaTeX
commands entered in the order you used in your ERT, I doubt that is
possible without resorting to ERT.
