I have three problems with LyX all, I suspect, because I don't know where to look in the docs.
1. I would like to be able to indent the first line of a paragraph by say 1.2cm.


Use LyX's menu Layout->Document.

I've tried that, but the indent radio button seems to have no effect. Please see the attached LyX file.

\layout Standard

I would like to indent the first word of each para.
 Layout -> Document > Indent set -> would appear intended to achieve that.
 NO LUCK! However, I do get indentation on these
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset 

paras
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset 

 if the whole text is made Standard.
 The indents remain in the dvi view.
