Search Replace in Math Mode

It would be nice to have a search replace within math mode. It could work document wide or only in currently focused math-box. It would allow you to search and replace via latex commands, for instance, search ^{2} and replace with _{2}. Maybe the search box itself could have a math-editor

Re: Search Replace in Math Mode

Thanks for your reponse. Interestingly, it seems to already sift through math-code, but the escaping code is somewhat messy. For example, if you try to replace \hbar with 'word' it will work, but if you try to replace 'word' with \hbar it will place \\hbar. I bet _that_ cannot be too hard

Feature request: Search Replace in Math Expressions (or, at least, in View Source)

Hi, I'm a long-time LyX user (and huge fan), and I often work with very large files with lots of mathematical expressions. It would be hugely useful if LyX had a search-and-replace feature that looked not just through text, but also through mathematical expressions. (Or, at the very least, if the

search/replace for math?

Hi.. is there any plan for a search/replace for math stuff within LyX? For example, if I need to change all the L_{abc} to L_{A} then I could maybe do this with a search/replace feature that looks at math characters and replaces all such occurences.. I guess I could also convert to Latex
