It is empty because that field is intended for user input. The preamble that LyX creates is never stored in the document. > Makes it really hard to debug latex problems > if you > don't know about this. I am pretty sure that the documentation tells that LyX puts some stuff into the preamble, so I don't see this as a big problem. > One could perhaps put preamble entries that come > >from the "Output" Settings in a different color (maybe even grayed > out), but > still let them show up in the preamble. Of course it must not be possible to edit the LyX generated preamble. That would be even more confusing. LyX 1.5.0 will have a View->Source menu entry, I believe that this is a good solution to examine LaTeX problems. Georg
