Most of my brackets are unfortunantly in \texttt, so stretching them dosn't work; however for all my normal math ones I do use the stretch forms. Interestingly for functions the \left\right version of parentheses has a little extra space beforehand (so I have to counter that with a \!),

Dear Scott, It does thank you! However presing "alt+m, shift+9" is a bit unconfortable and slow. A command like \( would be more convienet, however if I make one like that with an arugment, LyX places the cursor outside the parantheses, not inside. Whereas if I name the command \per, it works

Interestingly, microsoft word has a lovely feature where it autosizes braces! So you type (a/b) and the parantheses will match the high of the fraction. I know lyx has a way of doing this with insert->math->delimiters, but it would be nice if there was an easier way. You can of course right
