Perhaps I've misunderstood, but it seems to me what is wanted is
the module Theorems (Numbered by
Type within Chapters) that comes with LyX.
This allows one to number by type within chapters each of theorems,
corollaries, lemmas, propositions,
conjectures, facts, definitions, examples, problems, exercises,
remarks and claims.

Thanks Andrew. Yes, that's what I also thought, but this has no
effect... Choosing
and
seems to give the same result. I don’t understand why. (Is it because
the first selection says AMS, Numbered by Type, and the second one
doesn’t mention AMS?)
Anyway, depending on which choice I make first, not all choices are
available. Example: with the latter of these choices (both Theorems
(AMS, ...) and Theorems (Numbered by Type...)...
·if I try to select Theorems (AMS, ...) first, option “Delete” is not
available
·so I have to delete the second option first, and then after that, I
can delete “Theorems (AMS, ...)”.
Likewise, module “Theorems (Numbered by Type within Chapters)” – which
is really what I want – can only be added if I **first** add “Theorems
(AMS, Numbered by Type)”... and then it doesn’t give the expected effect.
Ideally, this is how I’d like it to work, without having to “hack” in
the preamble...

Thanks,

LyX doesn't supply all the modules necessary to use AMS environments
numbered by type within
chapters. I ran into this problem some weeks ago but found I could create
or adjust the necessary
modules using the supplied ones as models. I've attached the new/adjusted
ones to this email. Place
them in the layouts folder of your personal LyX directory.
Then you will need to reconfigure LyX so it knows of them.
There are dependencies among the modules which is why some can't be added
or deleted without
others.

Thanks, Andrew...
* I will probably be able to figure out what the "layouts folder of your personal
LyX directory" is. I *assume* that what I have to do, is simply save the attached
files in this folder. (Explorer... using %appdata%, I found folder layouts under LyX2.2.)
* "Then you will need to reconfigure LyX so it knows of them". Here, I'm lost
as to what this means. Does this simply mean: go into Document Settings of LyX, and add
the new modules in the Modules part? Or something entirely different?

OK, I see others have intervened while I've been asleep but for
completeness I'll answer anyway.
"layouts folder of your personal LyX directory": On my windows 7
machine, the folder is C:\Users\Andrew\AppData\Roaming\LyX2.2\layouts.
(On your machine obviously the "Andrew" will be different but the folder
you've discovered sounds like the right one.) Save the files to this folder.
Reconfiguring LyX: Open LyX. Under Tools > Reconfigure click
Reconfigure. A lot of activity will show in the status bar at the bottom
of the LyX window, LyX may even seem to freeze for some seconds, and
then a message box should pop up telling you to close then restart LyX.
When you do and go to Documents > Settings > Modules the new modules
should be present in the list.
