Subheading numbering

Is there a way to change the way Lyx/Latex numbers subheading, so that instead of 1 Introduction it sill produce: 1. Introduction? In other words, how do I produce a period following the last digit of a subheading number? Thanks,

Hi all, is there an option to make whitespaces visible in the Lyx GUI? You know, similar as to 'show hidden text' in Word? Reason for this: often I overlook that there is a whitespace missing before and after citations and references. Cheers -Ralf
