In general, get yourself a copy of the comprehensive list of LaTeX symbols:
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/symbols/comprehensive/
Look up sqint, and see what packate it requires. Include said package.

In this case, though, you can just go to Document Settings Math

Thanks Josh,

now I found it. The problem was, that I could not identify the symbol 
sets. After enabling one set it appears somewhere at the bottom, where 
several others already are shown


Just another question: How do I activate the \sqint symbol? The 
processor says: undefined symbol.


In general, get yourself a copy of the comprehensive list of LaTeX symbols:
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/symbols/comprehensive/
Look up sqint, and see what packate it requires. Include said package.

In this case, though, you can just go to Document> Settings> Math 
Options, and check "Include esint package automatically". That's the 
right package, and then LyX will take care of it.

I *like* the way LyX handles it. I give my equations labels which
_make_sense_ to me as a physicist---like "Poisson-Eqn"---not
having to coddle to the structure of the paper. If I want to
refer to the equation 20 pages later, I don't have to go back and
find the number and adapt the label or the references, nor do I
have to worry about renumbering if anything changes. The
cross-reference system built into Lyx/LaTeX takes care of that.

 My only objection is the (perhaps apocryphal, but lodged in my
brain since I've used LyX for about a decade now)
requirement/suggestion to put dashes in place of spaces in one's
labels.


Yes, LaTeX regards the space as separating tokens, and as things
now are labels get entered as raw LaTeX, not as something that
gets processed by LyX. So no spaces. That, however, would be easy
to fix.

I have written my MSc thesis in LyX and the way references are handled 
helps me a lot, but I got only one suggestion: when I set my own 
labels LyX also asigns a number to the equation which is automatically 
changed but doesn´t correspond to the "real" equation number that 
appears in the final text, so when I finally got about 120 pages 
written I detect one wrong equation and I have to spend a few time to 
detect which equation is in the LyX document because I didn´t find the 
equation 2.4 instead it was equation 17. So I think this behaviour is 
wrong and must be fixed.


Do you remember what document class, etc, you were using? It sounds like 
it set "number equations by section", and the layout file did not know 
about that.

Hi there!
Can you tell me if there is a possibility to show PDFs which are
inserted by Insert -> Image in LyX?
Which converter do I need? LyX said that the conversion fails. In
German: "Fehler bei der Konvertierung in ein darstellbares Format".
I tried this:
http://michael.orlitzky.com/articles/fixing_pdf_graphics_in_lyx.php -
but it won't work :-(
Thanks a lot!

Looking at the converter settings, it seems that "pdf2ps" or "pdftops" 
is used. This on a linux system.

Resetting footnote numbering after every chapter...

2013-08-09 Thread Frederick FN Noronha फ्रेड्रिक नोरोन्या *فريدريك نورونيا 
Could someone kindly tell me how to reset my footnote numbers (Memoire
class book) after every chapter? As of now, I'm getting continuous
chapter-numbering for the whole book.

Secondly, is there some way to use symbols for a book which has very many
footnotes? (The problem is that the footnote symbols repeats ... and is not
being accepted.) Kindly cc me in your reply. Many thanks! FN
