It seems that I can't search for items in child documents in the
master, but have to go to the various childs in the master and
repeat there the search. Or is there something I missed?

grep

do you mean I can use the grep in lyx?? How?
Wolfgang


Not in LyX, from the command prompt. It will tell you which child
file(s) has the target string. Then you load that child file into LyX.

Which command would you use
say for finding 'predator'?

I followed Scotts proposal >

In advanced find, one workaround is to click on "Settings" and then
"Open documents"

and it is very convenient.

"Open documents".

I wish that advanced find had an option for "child documents" that was
selected by default. It is on my todo list, but I doubt I would get to
it for a few years.

Thanks, Scott,

 for the hint to open child documents and search through.
It is fine this way.
