The reason is that it is not easy for LyX to guess what follows. With a character, a space needs to be inserted to terminate the command, but with another command, this space must be omitted as it would result in a real space. Braces work in both cases. Note though that forthcoming LyX 2.4 will be smarter and output, with your example: {\Large\textsl{Here is some long long long and even longer text that spans multiple lines of a paragraph in large size and slanted style.}}{\Large\par} There is also a reason for size switches coming before font style markup. I can't remember the details now but this is the only order that works in all cases. HTH, Jürgen
