Yes, or else, to be coherent, "no color" should mean invisible. :-)

I understand that the color property is dealt in the WYSIWYM such that the mean 
part. And that 
we conflate two different properties, what it should look like in the screen 
and what it should 
look like in the printed output.

So for example, in the above case, it is not possible to select some range and 
have it displayed 
in green in the final output, because green is default color of the text in the 
paragraph.

This only applies to using the character properties, I am aware and I prefer to 
use a logical 
markup where e.g. green is the color for emphasized text that can be declared 
in a layout 
module.

My point, not trying to transform this discussion in to an academic exchange, 
is this behavior is 
different from what we get in a "Standard" layout.


In what follows I use the source pane with the format: LyX.

Create a paragraph and select some text and change it to "no color". The lyx 
file format is 
unchanged.

If you do the same in the "Example Block" you get in the lyx format:

\color none
No colour.


IMHO that is the problem. It should be the same as in the standard paragraph 
case where no 
color means the default text color.

I hope that this makes sense.


PS: Using a Portuguese expression "to rain on a wet floor" and I would also 
like to congratulate 
you for the amazing work you have been doing in the beamer support. It is 
appreciated and it 
really helps a lot when using beamer inside lyx.
