We describe several new ways of specifying the behaviour of Lemaitre-Tolman (LT) models, in each case presenting the method for obtaining the LT arbitrary functions from the given data, and the conditions for existence of such solutions. In addition to our previously considered `boundary conditions', the new ones include: a simultaneous big bang, a homogeneous density or velocity distribution in the asymptotic future, a simultaneous big crunch, a simultaneous time of maximal expansion, a chosen density or velocity distribution in the asymptotic future, only growing or only decaying fluctuations. Since these conditions are combined in pairs to specify a particular model, this considerably increases the possible ways of designing LT models with desired properties.
