Hi Barış,

I don't know if it's possible to use that particular key sequence for the 
shortcut. I tried and it doesn't work for me. In case it's still helpful, I can 
tell how to use a different key sequence.

First let's make sure we get the command-sequence that you want. The general 
way to do this is written up step-by-step here:

http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/208510/lyx-commands-to-insert-wysiwyg-horizontal-line-for-keyboard-shortcut/208531#208531

I think the command-sequence you want is the following:

  command-sequence font-emph; self-insert i.e.; font-emph

Copy that command-sequence line (starting with "command-sequence" and ending 
with the second "font-emph"), then in LyX go to Tools > Preferences > Editing > 
Shortcuts. Then click on "New". In the box "Function", paste the 
command-sequence. Then click on the blank rectangle and then press the key 
sequence you want (unfortunately I think your ideal sequence doesn't work). 
Then press "OK".

I'm sorry I couldn't figure out how to do it with "Ctrl+i+e". It did work for 
me with "Ctrl + ;".

Best,
Scott

Hi all,

On my book, I used the date environment to write "A

So I finally put the following in ERT (TeX)

This gave me a "Missing glyphs!" error.


foo\textsuperscript\textregistered

Yes, you can solve the error by using textsuperscript. However, entering 
math mode seems superfluous then. And outside of math mode, you can just 
use the LyX functionality to achieve the same result as suggested below.


Without using math, couldn't you insert a superscript (Insert >

TeX Code)?
