Fine hacking, but what about using the general font définition mechanism ?
I don't know about the TIPA fonts, but for sans serif for instance, you
just have to put \usepackage{helvet} or \usepackage{avant} to shift
fron helvetica to avant-garde. Su if TIPA is a sans-serif familiy, this
should work:
- program the Font button to go to sans-serif in the layout character
menu;
- every time you mark a word by the Font button,
it is in sans-serif, and the font is selected by the package.
If you need two different sans-serif fonts,
it is more complicated of course. Never tried it.
