I NEED to be able to place a box symbol AND a box rotated 1/4 (a diamond) and 
a vertical oval.  I can only find a box and diamond symbol in the Document 
Layout window under bullets.  I don't want bullets, I want the characters in 
my text.  These symbols are not available as a special math characters or any 
other character except bullets, as far as I've been able to determine.

How can I use them in a normal paragraph as symbols?  I am writing a figure 
legend and the figure has these characters in it.  So, I haven't found a 
vertically-oriented oval anywhere.  Is there such a beast available?  If so, 
how does one make it available to lyx for use as characters like circle, 
bigcircle, etc?

Help please!
