Here's what I have on the screen:
I looked at your example, and what you call "incrementing the depth" is in reality a text box in your math formula. LyX turns the entire formula in a multine formula since multline is a formula environment (i. e. it opens a new math formula and cannot not be used inside an existing one). What you want to try is simply not possible in LaTeX. Text inside a math formula can only contain very few constructs, in particular opnly simple math formulas. I am sure that you can get the desired effect with some other AMS environments, read the AMS docuementation if you want to know more about them. Georg
