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. Regards, -- José Abílio
