I'm writing a document in LyX. I would like every new Paragraph to be indented, and it does happen to all paragraphs beside ones that are in a new section/subsection or coming after a list. Is there a way to fix that?

(sorry if it's an extremely basic question, I couldn't find the answer anywhere)

This is what I get:

Subsection
first paragraph is not indent.
    second one is
    third one is 
    list:
 1. something
 2. something else
 again not indent.

and I would like it to be:

Subsection
    first paragraph is indent.
    second one is
    third one is 
    list:
 1. something
 2. something else
    indent again!

You can insert a LaTeX command (ctrl+l or insert->TeX Code) at any place in your document.

Just place your cursor at the beginning of the line you wish to force indentation on, press ctrl+l and add the code "\indent".
