This issue has been discussed before. Storing user files in the application bundle like this, and expecting the user to discover them by control-clicking or right-clicking on the app icon, IS WRONG. Apple DOES NOT EXPECT users to even know that this is possible. It is a "power user" concept. These things should be stored in /Library/Application Support/LyX/templates or /Library/Application Support/LyX-2.1/templates (as appropriate) and the path in the application should point there. A possible fallback is to store them in the app bundle, but make them accessible from menus within the app so that reverting to control-clicking on the app bundle is not necessary. I thought this had been fixed. Jerry > > > > > On Jul 16, 2014, at 1:08 PM, Julio Rojas wrote: > >> Thanks, but that is not the problem.
