Hello people.
I have a (rather wide) table with cross-references in it. When I rotate

Amen to that.
And the LyX list is extraordinarily polite, helpful, relevant, and
knowledgable.
I have used several lists related to L

\hyphenpenalty 1
The default setting is
\hyphenpenalty 50
I would consult with your advisor as to what format is
preferred, and whether hyphenation should be discouraged or
eliminated altogether.
