Custom enumerated section headers?
I know that I can have numbered section headers by choosing e.g.
Section or Subsection from the drop-down in the top-left. But
instead of having these render as:
1 My First Section
1.1 My first subsection
can I get custom headers such as the following?
Problem 1-- horizontal space -- My First Section
Part a ({\em My first subsection}) right-aligned ^
Thanks in advance.

Look at the titlesec package or try using one of the koma-script
packages. These allow (relatively) easy customization of headers.

The Picture Environment
The Math Panel is very useful to make complex formulas in a very easy way. Is
there something like that for the picture environment?
I mean, the picture environment is an standard, is very useful, and I can type
things like:
\setlength{\unitlength}{1cm}
\begin{picture}(6,5)
\thicklines
\put(1,0.5){\line(2,1){3}}
\put(4,2){\line(-2,1){2}}
\put(2,3){\line(-2,-5){1}}
\put(0.7,0.3){$A$}
\put(4.05,1.9){$B$}
\put(1.7,2.95){$C$}
\put(3.1,2.5){$a$}
\put(1.3,1.7){$b$}
\put(2.5,1.05){$c$}
\put(0.3,4){$F=
\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$}
\put(3.5,0.4){$\displaystyle
s:=\frac{a+b+c}{2}$}
\end{picture}
But when trying to do more complex figures it turns out to be realy annoying.

Multi-paragraph description
Hello,
Is it possible to create a multi-paragraph description in LyX, the same
way you can do so in LaTex? Something like this:
\begin{description}
\item[Para] This is a shorter item label, and some text that talks about it.
The text is wrapped into a paragraph, with successive lines indented.
This is another paragraph under the Para item.
\begin{description}
\item[Sub-Item] This is a description of an item which is within the
Para item.
\item[Sub-Item] Another sub-item.
\end{description}
\item[Short] A short item that's not part of that really long Para item.
\end{description}
Thanks,
