 The first drop-down selection list is where you set the default font
 family, i.e. the family that LyX should use as the basic family for 
 the whole document.  Now that you have told LyX what the default family
 should be (sans serif), you need to go the the Sans Serif drop-down
 list and tell it to use Helvetica as the specific sans serif font-face
 (which you already set to be used for everything).

 This will change the onscreen LyX font to Helvetica, as well as the
 typeset output.  

Just for the record: it will change the onscreen LyX (GUI) font to
sans serif which, depending on the settings in ExtrasPreferences
could be Helvetica or a better choice (e.g. DejaVu Sans).

Yes. Read Help  User Guide  3.7.2. You need to set a different Serif
font, which is used in most parts of the document.

What I meant was if there is a way to use Helvetica for the whole 
document, I found one and I didn´t like it. But, anyway, thank you for

Emil,

I'm not sure if you're still wanting Helvetica, but what works for me is to 
open the document settings and go to the Fonts section

The first drop-down selection list  is where you set the default font family, 
i.e. the family that LyX should use as the basic family for  the whole 
document.  Now that you have told LyX what the default family should be (sans 
serif), you need to go the the Sans Serif drop-down list and tell it to use 
Helvetica as the specific sans serif font-face (which you already set to be 
used for everything).

This will change the onscreen LyX font to Helvetica, as well as the typeset 
output.  

This will solve your KOMA-Script problems because KOMA will typeset the 
headings in the sans serif of your choice, which is specified as Helvetica.  It 
will then typeset the body text according to the default font family, which you 
have specified as sans serif--Helvetica.

Regards,

Daron
