Hello,

Is it possible to create a multi-paragraph description in LyX, the same
way you can do so in LaTex? Something like this:

\begin{description}
\item[Para] This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it.
   The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented.

   This is another paragraph under the "Para" item.

   \begin{description}
   \item[Sub-Item] This is a description of an item which is within the
      "Para" item.

   \item[Sub-Item] Another sub-item.
   \end{description}
\item[Short] A short item that's not part of that really long "Para" item.
\end{description}


Yes. Enter the description, start a new paragraph, set the environment to either Standard (for a paragraph) or Itemize (for a bullet list), type madly, then increase the depth of the paragraph (Edit->Increase List Depth, M-S-right or the appropriate tool bar button, which has a right-pointing arrow).
