Dear Windows LyX users,

while trying to figure out some error reports, can you please give us feedback
whether Ctrl+Alt shortcuts do work with your setup?
You can you use e.g.  Ctrl+Alt+1 to setup bookmark and try to navigate from
other part of your document.

Meanwhile we found the problem. LyX uses the framework "Qt" for its Windows, 
Dialogs etc.:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qt_%28software%29
The latest versions of Qt have a bug that destroys some shortcuts on Windows. For example "alt+m (" in math does not work and "AltGr+7" on German keyboards does not give a "{" character.

Unfortunately the latest Windows LyX installer from came with the buggy Qt 
libraries.

So if shortcuts like "alt+m (" in math do not work for you on Windows _AND_ if you installed LyX after March 8, 2014, then please reinstall using the fixed LyX for Windows installer:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/lyxwininstaller/files/LyXWinInstaller/2.0.7/LyX-207-Installer-4.exe/download

I will make an announcement tomorrow when the new installer is available on 
www.lyx.org.

sorry for the inconvenience and regards
Uwe
