Please, read the release notes in the last tab of the panel that opens with the "Help->About LyX" menu and http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX22#parbreak In a nutshell, the old separator layout has gone and now a separator inset is used in its place. Given that the old separator layout was introducing a blank line in the latex output, in order to not change the output, all converted documents use the parbreak separator (denoted by the unfamiliar character). However, if that blank line is not essential, you can get the familiar line back by right clicking the unfamiliar character and changing it to the plain version. -- Enrico
