Hi,
I am afraid that I have to rewarm an old discussion about the intro
(splash) screen. IMHO the current solution is still not satisfying.
Currently, if you start LyX with "lyx foo.lyx" where foo.lyx is a
non-existing file, it happens from time to time that the dialog
(warning about the missing file) is hidden by the intro screen. There are
also other occasions when the intro screen handling is rather annoying. To
me it seems like the picture is programmed as a separate window but it
should be considered as a kind of background of the main window if no
document is loaded.
Even though this can be considered a cosmetics affair, I think it is
_very_ important that LyX starts up in a trustfull. Remember: If people
meet each otherm, the first few seconds count!!!
