I guess that you mean in the beamer class. Right? Lyx lacks the possibility to have class sensitive key-bindings. But you can always make a binding that inserts something, but then the binding will be valid in all documents. This is what I have in my personal bind-file to create an ERT \bind M-r "command-sequence ert-insert; self-insert \\rb{} ; inset-toggle" So by pressing M-r the macro creates a ERT put \rb{} into it and closes it.


There's a work-around if you want, for instance, bindings unique to the beamer class. Create a separated document home directory for beamer presentations. The first time you start LyX in that directory, it should create another copy of the local file tree. (If you've edited preferences, you'll either need to do so again here, or copy the preferences file from your usual document home.) Now copy your key bindings file into the ./bind folder of the new directory and edit that copy to contain beamer-specific bindings.


I think.  (Haven't actually done this myself.)
