The default shortcut for generating a PDF is Ctrl + R, and to update the PDF Ctrl + Shift + R. To make these use XeTeX, go to Document --> Settings --> Output, and set PDF (XeTeX) as Default Output Format.

There is a plethora of hotkey configuration options in

Tools | Preferences | Editing | Shortcuts

If you type "space" in the Show key-bindings containing field, you'll see the existing shortcuts for some Insert | Formatting | Horizontal Space options.

You could also try to create a new, customized one if the choice is not sufficient for your needs, but that is tricky.

If you just want to get to the formatting window for horizontal spaces, the good old

Alt - I - O - O

will do the job.

One option is to reduce the font used for authors in the footline; you can try adding to the preamble the following:

\setbeamerfont{author in head/foot}{size=\tiny}

or (for even smaller size):

\setbeamerfont{author in head/foot}{size=\fontsize{4}{4.8}\selectfont}
