The top and bottom window borders of the LyX window are much too
large.
 They're what I'd expect to see on a monitor with a resolution of
 800x600, but my monitor is running at 1280x1024. I've asked on the
 xfce mail list and no one there has a clue what might be causing
 this.
 
You can see what I mean by grabbing the tarball:
http://www.appl-ecosys.com/publications/screenshots.tgz
 and comparing the two images. The first is the LyX window and the
 second is a firefox-0.9.3 window. The latter has menu text and icon
 sizes the same as all other applications I'm running. LyX is on
 steriods, I guess.
 
This discrepancy has not occurred on previous versions running on
a
 monitor at a resolution of 1024x768. Any ideas why the borders are
 so large will be appreciated.

By Borders, you mean the size of the text in the menubar, toolbar 
and minibuffer, and the size of the icons in the toolbar?

1. You are running the Qt-frontend version of LyX. Qt look and feel 
(text size in this case) is controlled by QControlCenter or suchlike. 
Maybe QConfig. I forget the name, but the point is that it is 
controlled from a single place and covers all Qt apps. LyX itself 
controls only how text appears inside the main LyX screen.

2. Icons. We provide only a single size of icons. See 
$PREFIX/share/lyx/images. Including the math subdirectory, there are 
over 550 images in there. You want us to create half-sized and 
double-sized bitmaps? Get real! There's only 4 or 5 of us making this 
stuff happen and life is far, far too short.

Speaking of QT issues, I've run into a regular frustration since switching
over from the xforms interface: if I hit ALT, the menu bar is highlighted so
I can go through it with the arrow keys. Aside from the many LyX shortcuts
using ALT, I have some set up through my window manager. It happens several
times during any particular editing session that I start a shortcut and
change my mind or move the window using ALT and end up with the menu
selected when I don't want it.

Is there any way I can disable this or shove it off to an unused key?

Peter,
  Why not set up your key bindings in ~/.lyx/bind/my.bind You can copy
either cua.bind or emacs.bind to my.bind and futz away to your heart's

Because it's a QT thing, not a LyX thing.

I hope you're not suggesting I remap every LyX keybinding to not use ALT,
relearn them all, remap every personal shortcut to not use ALT, relearn all
those, reprogram my window manager to not use ALT, and lastly relearn it.
Because that would be silly.

so I can go through it with the arrow keys. Aside from the many LyX
shortcuts using ALT, I have some set up through my window manager. It
happens several times during any particular editing session that I start a
shortcut and change my mind or move the window using ALT and end up with
the menu selected when I don't want it.
Is there any way I can disable this or shove it off to an unused key?
Peter,
  Why not set up your key bindings in ~/.lyx/bind/my.bind You can copy
either cua.bind or emacs.bind to my.bind and futz away to your heart's
content.

Because it's a QT thing, not a LyX thing.

I hope you're not suggesting I remap every LyX keybinding to not use ALT,
relearn them all, remap every personal shortcut to not use ALT, relearn all
those, reprogram my window manager to not use ALT, and lastly relearn it.
Because that would be silly.
