I've been using LyX for a number of years.  Because I was reusing a

loading that file at the beginning of each document with an input

macro to see how I had defined it (probably because I had since found
a better way).  But no configuration in Advanced Search that I have
tried will allow me to search math macros.  Am I missing something or
is this a feature that might be added in the future?
OK, this is a bit weird: If you USE the macro, then the definition will
be found. So use it temporarily.


I think I understand why this happens, but it is a bit of a long story,
and not a terribly interesting one. I'm not sure it is even possible to
fix this.

I think the reason is that the macro definitions are not part of any latex 
output.

Yes, that's what I assumed. Though what's odd is that the definition IS found if it is used. What's not found is the actual usage, at least in my testing.
