This menu item *does* toggles the status of the math toolbar, however
I think I read somewhere that the math *panel* of LyX 1.4 had been
superseded by some kind of secondary (advanced) math toolbar.
The math toolbar that is activated for me looks dissimilar to the one
as pictured at the url listed below. My toolbar is much more basic,
with no popup menus, etc. I can't remember precisely, but I suspect
it is the same as the LyX 1.4 toolbar.
Cheers,
Lee.

Hi,
I seem to be having a bit of trouble with the Math toolbar in the
new 1.5.0 and 1.5.1 versions (Mac OS X 10.4.10 PPC).
I can only utilise the basic toolbar (with delimiters, etc.),
which I turn from the View > Toolbar > Math menu. I don't have
anything like the new one as shown here: http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/
NewInLyX15#toc12
I read in a previous post that deleting ~/Library/Application
Support/LyX-1.5/session, and restarting LyX might help. This
didn't work, nor did deleting the preferences (which was also
recommended).
Clicking on the "Toggle Math Panels" (the math panel should have
gone??) icon on the toolbar gave me the following error: "Unknown
toolbar "math_panels" (toolbar-toggle math_panels)."
You need to select the toolbars you want in View > Toolbars. (The
one you're talking about is the Math Panels toolbar.)
Note that in selecting them from that list, there are 3
possibilities that cycle everytime you select them: always on,
always off, and auto. The auto setting will automatically display
the toolbar when you're in the appropriate [math or table]
environment or when change tracking is on.
The sessions feature will save the state of your toolbars, so that
relaunching LyX will put them in the same state they were previously.
