Forcing Indents
Now and then I would like to indent the first line of a paragraph that latex has left flush. For example, switching to a standard environment after a block quotation does not indent the first line. If this first line is still part of the paragraph which includes the block quotation, that's fine. But if this first line really is the first line of a new paragraph, then, at least in my opinion, the first line should be indented to signal the change in thought that accompanies a new paragraph. But in any case, how can one produce an indent in the first line of a given single paragraph?

Forcing Indents
After a block quotation, using either the quote or quotation environments, is finished, the first following sentence may be part of the ongoing paragraph or a new paragraph. To make sure the reader knows which of the two situations obtains, it seems to me you would want to indent if it's new paragraph. The LyX default is no indent, which is fine, except that I don't know how to change to an indent. I see no command in Layout Paragraph to force an indent. Bruce

Bruce,
I can find two different solutions:
1. Use ERT (\begin{quotation} ... \end{quotation});
2. After using the quotation environment as defined by LyX, insert an
empty ERT followed by a carriage return (i.e.., press your enter
key); then, write your paragraph.
