 2.- Your answer to second question about space on figures is relative to
 caption space, but I would want space above and below of Float figure,
 including image o figure and caption...

You need to change the following lengths:

   \floatsep   : Space left between floats
   \textfloatsep   : Space between last top float or first bottom float
 and the text.
   \intextsep  : Space left on top and bottom of an in-text float.

Default values are
\setlength{\floatsep}{12pt plus 2pt minus 2pt}
\setlength{\textfloatsep}{20pt plus 2pt minus 4pt}
\setlength{\intextsep}   {12pt plus 2pt minus 2pt}

Just change the first number (before the 'plus').

 Hello again Lyx users...
 
 I have 3 questions...
 
 1.- How can I change the List of Tables title to another?. For instance in
 spanish I get Lista de cuadros and I would want to get Lista de
 tablas. I think that is a better translation of List of tables.

Put the following in the preamble:

\usepackage{babel}
\addto\captionsspanish{
  \renewcommand{\listtablename}{Lista de tablas}
}   
  
 2.- Is there any method to set the same separation of vertical spaces in
 above and below of all Figure Floats that has my documentation? or I have
 to change manually in all my Figure Floats elements??

\setlength{\abovecaptionskip}{10pt}
\setlength{\belowcaptionskip}{0pt}

(change the values 10  0 to your liking)

 3.- How can I get that a paragraph on a report class document has more than one
 column?, for instance 2 and the others only 1?

Read Extended.lyx (the section on multiple colunms)
