But this does not solve the problems you described (renaming or moving the master), at least not if this is done outside LyX (e.g., in a file browser). > If you want a bidirectional link between child and master, you should be > able to set this from both the master as the child and in one action. I think we just have different concepts of the whole thing. I think the two directions are not immediately connected. Although a child that has a default master requires this master to include the child (at least in all sensible cases I can imagine), the opposite is not necessarily true. In my opinion, having a "default master" is a property of a specific child, not of the master. That's why it's a child buffer param. Jürgen
