Well, I found this answer to be a little rude, and this moved me to
answer. Maybe it was not the intention, but it looks to me that way.
What is wrong with asking LyX to be adapted to one's needs? Nothing,
in my opinion. If LyX is becoming a more and more powerful and
comfortable to use tool is thanks to the developers, but also thanks
to all the people that suggest feature improvements (based on their
own needs). A different thing is demanding your request to be
fulfilled! But that was not what bigblop did. He was just wondering
about any potential plans for showing separate pages in LyX.
I guess he was just not aware that this is actually not feasible in
LyX, as Richard G. Heck kindly explained.
What if it would be feasible ? Would it be an added value or is it too
the-non-tex-way ?
