How do I enter (without using raw TeX)
\hat{x}_i?
I seem to always end up with \hat{x_i}, which isn't the same (and
doesn't look correct)
You have to be just a little careful. You can either enter the x, then
highlight it and add in the \hat from the menu, then get out of that
box and enter the _i, or you can enter the x_i, highlight the x only,
and choose the \hat from the menu. Since I don't always remember
quickly all of the commands for such decorations, it's easier for me to
do this than to use the keystrokes.

In math type \hat[return key]. You will get a box. Type x. Get out of the box.
Type _i.

A _pure_ LyX method is to select the hat box from the frame
decorations menu, enter the ‘x’, leave the hat box, then select
subscripts, and enter the ‘i’
But, really, I think that a mix of LaTeX and gooey LyX is a better way
to go. I'd probably use the method of Hal Kierstead. Professor
Johnson's second method is fine too.
