The difference is explained (briefly) here:

Thank you, Jürgen. This gives me the same result as Scott's answer, though I 
can 
see a difference in source: `\noun{x}` as a result of `font-noun`, `\textsc{x}` 
from `textstyle-update shape 3`.

For defining shortcuts, `font-noun` seems to work well as it does not reset the 
text size to normal as `textstyle-update` does.

Best,
Rasmus

Hi Scott,

Thank you very much for the fast reply.

Works perfectly! Thank you!

Thank you for the tip, I will play around with that next tip I am in search!

If you mean "noun", then the function is called font-noun (here, it is bound 
to Alt+C+C).

Hi Rasmus,

I haven't tested this much, but try
textstyle-update shape 3

The way to discover LFUNs is either to start LyX with -dbg action
(from the command line, if Linux) or to enable user actions in the
messages pane. You can also see a list of LFUNs and descriptions of
them in the help menu.

Keyboard shortcut for Smallcaps

[Rasmus K . R .]

Hi!

I'm typesetting a document where I have to apply Smallcaps a lot, using LyX 
2.0.3.

I cannot seem to be able to figure out how to request smallcaps using a lyx 
function, so I have not been able to set a keyboard shortcut.

I have been able to set a shortcut for "Apply Last Text Style" by calling the 
function "textstyle-apply", but would prefer a direct shortcut.

I've played around with various commands, but cannot seem to find the correct 
one, and I was unable to look it up in the list of LyX functions.

Help would be appreciated,

Rasmus
