The original problem was that I didn't know how to do what you mention in the preceding paragraph. One question remains: Will what you reveal in the preceding paragraph also make the (R) smaller and raise it to superscript? If so, I'll document it. Indeed, it does make it smaller (script-size) ans raise it, i.e. set it in superscript. Daniel -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

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.
