I think that you are referring to something that it used to be in
"Edit->Text Style".
IIRC there was an option called "Apply previous change..." or something like
it. I always found it confusing because it did not work for me if I wanted to
apply it to logical/markup text styles like Code, Noun, ...
Interestingly enough the feature that you mention seems to be present in the
development version (2.4) in "Edit->Text Properties->Apply Last Settings". In
2,4 the logical/markup text styles are/will be in a different entry
"Entry->Custom Text Styles".
If my search-fu is correct this should be
https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/11427
I hope that this helps,
