FYI, Paul, there's also a full screen mode in LyX (which I think

implemented), if you really want more space.
I didn't know about that either (I'm learning so much from the
answers to my simple question). It would be nice is to be able to
fully customise the toolbars, then I could add just the icons I use
regularly, which would easily fit in a single row.
Yes, you can fully customize the toolbars
https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/UserInterface
It’s been a long time since I have done it, but I recall it was just
editing some text files.
Yes, that's right. It's all text files.
Short version: Copy the toolbars file from LYXLIB/ui/stdtoolbars.inc to
HOMELIB/ui/stdtoolbars.inc, then edit that file. Here, LYXLIB is your
'system library' directory and USERLIB is the user library. Both of
these can be found from Help> About LyX. The local file will then be
loaded instead of the system file. The syntax should be relatively
clear. Ask if not. See Help> LyX Functions for all the different
functions you can assign to buttons, etc.
You can both modify the standard toolbars this way and create new
toolbars. You can also do this with menus (stdmenus.inc) and context
menus (stdcontext.inc).
