Given that Stephan can not reproduce the best workaround is perhaps permananetly change the ui file (see Eberhard's mail).

Correct? yes and no: - the setting persists, if I just close the file in LyX and click on the same file in the finder It is gone/forgotten: - if I open another file (this might be intended) - if I close LyX in the dock, so that LyX is totally closed and then click on the file again Robert -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

Actually I can. When I look into ~/Library/Preferences I see possible culprit -- there are two plist files: org.lyx.LyX-2.3.plist and second org.lyx.lyx.plist. It seems that one of them is used when lyx is launched from icon and the second when you click on some .lyx file. Robert, if you click on some .lyx file and set VC Toolbar , then quit and again click on .lyx file then the setting persists. Correct?

I cannot reproduce on Mac either. But there are reports sometimes about LyX’s settings not being persistent. There are user errors: https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/11558 or these are either Qt problems or LyX - I cannot say. https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/10364 Stephan -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

There must be something different when lyx is launched via its icon and when clicking just on the file. CC-ing lyx-devel, Stephan might have a clue what's going on.
