I think that we could benefit from a detailed description of how to

"LabelString" in LyX.  I never got quite what I wanted: something
like "Task 1"  "Task 2"  etc.  The closest I could get was "Task" or
"1" but not a string and a counter together.  The compiled output
looks fine, but in LyX it isn't quite what I would like...

I'll try to have a look at this. I've been puzzled myself about how
the item counters, etc, work, and frustrated by similar limitations.
I'm not sure there is any way to get exactly what you want in an item-
or list-type environment.

Look at the chapter style:

Style Chapter
        Margin                Static
        Category              Section
        LabelString               "Chapter \thechapter"
        LabelStringAppendix   "Appendix \thechapter"
        LabelType                   Counter
        LabelCounter            chapter

Easy, isn't it?

Sorry, my question was more about list-type environments, and how to change to, say, \roman in an enumeration like environment. That's now been filed as an enhancement request.

I'm not sure how this applies to the OP's issue.
