Hi,

I would like to have the following features developed in LyX if
possible:

* Macro Support
This should be similar in many respects to vim's macros, whereby you can
capture keystrokes and mouse events and create a macro out of it which
you can then apply to a document.
   This should also have the functionality to save, edit and delete
        macros as desired.

* Mouse selection events
Currently LyX is unable to perform taks over selected text. For
instance, you cannot select a block of paragraphs and change them to
Double Spacing all at once.
   I would like this functionality to be implemented as well if possible
        :)

That is all, LyX is a fantastic tool for me and I use it for everything
from Assignments to CV's :) Thank you!

cheers
James

Hi,
Richard (one of the Lyx upstream devs) just told me that LyX already
supports a lot of actions on a selected paragraph.

Quoting Richard:
"""
You can do precisely what the reporter wants to do. (Select paragraphs, then
Edit>Pasragraph Settings.) Whether we need more of this is indeed debatable.
"""

So if you feel that a special action is missing please open another bugreport.
Preferable directly in the LyX Bugzilla at http://bugzilla.lyx.org so that
you can interact directly with the developers.

Sven
