I have it also and it does not contain much that you can use to solve your problem. Spellcheck settings are saved in /home/user/.lyx/preferences Ihave there a SPELLCHECKER SECTION and a LANGUAGE SUPPORT SECTION, where spellcheck settings are stored. The system settings on an openSUSE system can be found in the file /usr/share/lyx/lyxrc.dist Of course, lyx has a nice dialogue to change the settings, but maybe this can help you to locate the problem. Hopefully this helps, Cor
Your Bibliography Environment -- 1 min poll

Disable editing / read only menu option?
Dear LyX users, What are your thoughts on having an option in the menu called something like Disable editing or Read only, which would make it so you could not edit the current document? The idea would be that sometimes you just want to read a .lyx file without being able to edit it. The disadvantage is adding another option to an already cluttered menu. This feature can always be activated on the command buffer (alt + x) with buffer-toggle-read-only. Note that this is http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/6692. Best, Scott
Re: Disable editing / read only menu option?
I would certainly use it. Have had a couple of instances when I have been comparing documents with shared authorship and accidentally edited the wrong one.
