of course, but from that doesn't follow that inset info show path of another file. also we should use the images b/image.eps for file b/1.lyx. and we do it -- the problem appears once master/child bussiness comes into play. >Your complaint is the intended behavior. it is not intended since such kind of scenario won't come to your mind until you get this clash ;) the fact the we care those files in a different fashion when you open directly b/1.lyx and when you open it through master document just prove it. > Don't symlink them, and you'll get what you want. no, i dont want to care about the same text 3-times. pavel
