I have a LyX file for a book that essentially contains a list of include

Since I am now fiddling with formatting details, I would like LyX/LaTeX
to typeset everything from scratch  whenever I chose the View>>PDF
option. Is it possible to do that?  Most of the times LyX seems to
relies on the previously generated files.

Thanks for the help,

Hi, could you check whether or not your problem is related to bug 1992?
http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1992


Yes, it seems to be related, but I am not sure exactly how. My situation is a bit more complex than what you and Paul described in the bug report, as I have about 10 files included in the master file. I have not been able to track down what triggers the update and what doesn't. I suppose I will have to use the "add a space/delete a space" trick on all of them to force LyX to update. I have added a few lines describing my situation to the bug report.

BTW, I could not find a panel in LyX preference related to the /temp directory. Do you know where it is?

Cheers,

S.

good luck,
sven
