This is supposed to work. Did you read this in the RELEASE_NOTES? "Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 1.6.x ------------------------------------------------------- - Since several lyx functions have been renamed (see above), old configuration files (*.ui, *.bind) may no longer work. If some functions (such as Shift-right for selecting text) fail to work after the upgrade from previous versions, make sure you do not have any old configuration files in your LyX user directory, or adapt these files to the new functions." > 2.

As for the hfill: * Ctrl-<space> / context-menu / select hfill or create your own binding for this. Since we have proper hspace support now, we adapted the situation to that of vspace, where we didn't have a menu entry for vfill either. Jürgen
