Keyboard shortcut for cross-reference

[Hal Kierstead]

I am using LyX 2.02 on Mac 10.6.8.

How do I make a keyboard shortcut for inserting a cross-reference? I asked this a year or two ago and got very complicated answer that I have unfortunately lost. In the mean time I had instead made a keyboard short cut in OS X for the menu item, but this no longer seems to work in LyX 2.02.

In fact, each time I opened LyX, my old OS X keyboard short cut for the menu item only worked after I first inserted a cross-reference using the mouse, but I tolerated this peculiarity.

It seems that anything that you can do with a mouse click should be possible from the keyboard.

Thanks,

Hal

After discovering the LyX Users archive I found the answer:

dialog-show-new-inset ref
which is not hard.

Sorry,

Hal
