Re: New paragraphs within description lists, numbered lists, etc.
The system depends on the bind file you use. As far as I know the emacs-like shortcuts do have a (weird) system, not easy to learn. I use cua (common user access). You can print out a pdf with all shortcuts: http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/KeyboardShortcuts Bo Peng has modified standard shortcuts (same link) and added "Theorem" etc. shortcuts.

Re: New paragraphs within description lists, numbered lists, etc.
You can find the shortcuts in Tools > Preferences > Editing > Shortcuts. There are some presets available (.bind-file). I doubt, that there is a shortcut for "Theorem", because this is part of a an additional module. Regards Jürgen Am 12.08.2016, 09:01 Uhr, schrieb Bernt Lie: Hm.

I'm using the memoir class to produce a LyX document that's mainly
written in U.S. English but has several quotes that use British (UK)
English. So when I put the document through LyX's spell check and came
to words like "behaviours," I just marked them as UK English. But when I
tried to compile the document, LaTeX threw an error saying the command
"\foreignlanguage{british}{behaviours}" was undefined.
No problem, I thought. I'll just put a command in the document preface
to load babel with both languages: \usepackage[british,american]{babel}.
But this didn't work because LaTeX threw an error saying babel had
already been loaded. But for the life of me, I can't find where babel is
being loaded. The memoir manual says it does not duplicate the
functionality of packages like babel, and babel is not in the list of
packages memoir loads. So by a process of elimination, I can only guess
that LyX is surreptitiously loading babel. But if so, shouldn't it be
doing so with options for all the languages used in the document? (I.e.,
is this a bug in LyX?)
This is happening using LyX 2.2.1 on an iMac running OS X 10.10.5
(Yosemite), with MacTeX 2016 and all packages updated to their latest
version with the TeX Live utility. The Language settings in the LyX file
are "English (USA)," with Encoding set to Unicode (utf8), and Language
package set to "Automatic."
How can I fix this problem?
Thanks.
Re: Bug with theorems in LyX 2.2?
To seperate the two theorems, you have to go to the end of the first theorem and press 3 times "enter", a red line should occur. Then you can add your second theorem below.

Your are right. mhchem is also available in math mode. I can confirm, that there is no preview. Regards Am 09.08.2016, 18:57 Uhr, schrieb Bernt Lie Thanks for comment. I’m still confused: Ø This has nothing to do with the math mode.

Instead, it has specified “Load automatically” package “mhchem” >under “Math Options” in the Document Settings. · In the Math Help document, it is stated “After inserting \ce to a formula a new blue box appears where chemical formulas can be inserted in an intuitive way”. I assume that “to >a formula” refers to a math formula??! · In Martin Hensel’s document “The mhchem Bundle” dated August 8, 2016, he states about his package that “This works in text mode (even in headings) and in math mode.” By playing around with my document, it seems like the chemical expressions are correctly typeset in the pdf file both if I insert the \ce expressions in TeX code, and in math mode. However, my *problem* is that in *my* document, the chemical formulas do not *preview* within LyX, while in LyX’s Math Help document, the correct typesetting seems to >*preview* within LyX. · WHY this difference? · (Could it be that my document is based on LaTeX Book style, while LyX’s documentation uses KOMA-script document styles??) -Bernt L.
Re: LyX & mhchem package?
Hi,
you should put in the Preamble (Preferences, last entry) the following
code: \usepackage[version=4]{mhchem}
To insert the code (\ce{H2O}, please use (Main menu) Insert > TeX Code
(red box).
Then create pdf.
This has nothing to do with the math mode.

I’m new to LyX, and try to typeset chemical formulae using package
mhchem. It is not quite clear from “LyX’s detailed Math manual” of July
5, 2016 how to use mhchem, though.
Preliminaries:
· I use Windows 10 + LyX 2.2.1
· I *assume* that package mhchem is installed when I specify to
“Load always” “mhchem” under Math Options of the Document Settings. [The
documentation recommends that >“the LaTeX-package mhchem is installed” –
but assumes that the user knows how to install the package.]
· From the log when I typeset the document, it appears as if
package mhchem, version 4.04 is used.
Problem:
· I have assumed that the command “\ce” is to be used in math
mode, i.e., first use Ctrl+m to switch to math mode, then type “\ce “
(including the space after “\ce”) to get the >“new blue box” that is
mentioned in section 20, p. 57 of document “LyX’s detailed Math manual”.
· Assume that I want to typeset the chemical symbol for water,
H2O – but with the number (“2”) in subscript.
· So I type Ctrl+m, and then “\ce “, and then “H2O”... but it
does not preview as H_2O. Shouldn’t it? Is it only in the output/PDF
file that I see it correctly typeset?
· According to Martin Hensel’s documentation for mhchem, version
4.05, I can also typeset chemical expressions in text mode. I assume
that I have to insert the “\ce{xxx}” >expression into a TeX code to
achieve this?
Thanks!

This is a good idea. A small solution is, to write a short manual how to embed Gnuplot in Lyx on the Lyx-Webpage.
