I don't have 1.4.5, but I repeated the above experiment in 1.4.4, and 
again I got no differences.  LyX file and DVI are attached.


\[ is marked as 'bad math environment delimiter' in 1.4 so i cannot check

I didn't mean that you should insert \[ and \].  What I listed above is 
the LaTeX produced by LyX.  I used Insert->Math->Display formula, which 
provided the \[ and \] delimiters.  Within the math inset, I typed 
\frac, \dfrac and \displaystyle \frac respectively, filling in the 
arguments.

Thank you, i am following your suggestions, but found an issue.
Although  personal.bind  contains \bind_file math.bind  in its last lines, 
file math.bind   is not read by lyx. 
Any ideas?

thank you

Can you confirm that?

the \dfrac command will give you a fraction in display style without  
having to explicitly type \displaystyle. if you want fewer  
keystrokes, then an alternative to setting the default fraction to be  
in display style would be to create a custom bind for dfrac.


hope that helps,
