Hi LyX folks,

Assorted questions:

When I make up a mathematics exam, I often need to insert a series of 
formulas inline but in displaystyle size (retaining the inline 
position). I know how to force this with \displaystyle or by selecting 
the _contents_ of an inline formula and choosing Insert > Math > Display 
formula, but is there a key binding or some other method that forces 
the displaystyle (with inline position) more quickly? In LyX/Mac?

Conversely, how does one take a displaystyle size (inline position) 
formula and convert it back to inline size?

And in LyX/Mac what modifier keys produce the various accented 
characters in textmode? The User Guide mentions xkeycaps as a way to 
see a graphical version of the keyboard. Is this, or something similar, 
available for LyX/mac?

Last one: Choosing Custom line spacing in Layout > Document allows me to
pick the line spacing. If, for example, I write in the box 1.3 with 10
pt type, what line spacing does this give? I had expected that to get 3
pts leading with 10 pt type (10 on 13), say, that I should pick 1.3 =
13/10, but this appears to give much more leading than 10 on 13.

Thanks for the help.

Bruce
