Thanks a lot, I'll try this. Well, I guess 1.2.0 is not far away, anyway :)

About the crash and the non working parenthesis palette, last time I checked
(Friday evening), it worked and did not crash. I don't know what had made LyX
to crash, but maybe something which was not completely its fault.

Best regards,

Olivier Ripoll.

This is a bug in lyx <= 1.1.6, but it is fixed in 1.2.0.
The workaround for lyx <= 1.1.6 is to put \newcommand{\mylimits}{\limits}
in the preamble, and use \mylimits after \iiint.

there are two possible answer...
1. LaTeX is very difficult for Word users (maybe not only for W-users,
   me too),
2. Word is very inconsistent

Have a nice weekend,

That's strange, both of these worked for me (LyX *fix4 on RedHat
7.0). BTW, I did not know about the first option (setting right
brace by right clicking). Thanks :-).

I understand shouting (and crying) of Word users, but LyX use in
background just the same LaTeX as LyX. Why they cry?

the problem is also in the fact that there is in the palette an area showing
the present set of lefgt-right parentheses you can apply. Unfortunately, I
cannot change this from the default ()

I don't have an American keyboard!
My experience with bindings is not that good I had to do something like "M-m
S-." or "M-m S-period" maybe, but Shift-. does ; for me.

Anyway, I'll try with "Meta-m Altgr-è" (on my swiss keyboard, "atlgr-è" is
"[") and "Meta-m Altgr-à" tonight

Also, I'll try "M-m l" for the \limits replacement

Well, thanks anyway ...

No, try this:
Alt-M {
Alt-M [
Alt-M (
(or Meta instead of Alt)
this should insert both left and right bracket, similarly as the math
panel.

This has always bugged me... :(
