When change tracking is enabled, insertions are shown in LyX as underlined blue 
and deletions are shown in a slightly lighter shade of crossed-out blue. But in 
the PDF, insertions are in blue, no underlining, and deletions are crossed-out 
red.

I’m on a second revision of a manuscript. I want to keep the changes from the 
first revision and also view changes to the second revision, but in different 
colors, both in LyX and PDF. I see that I could make myself the second author, 
as that author is set up for different colors. How do I do that? I see the 
Identity item in Preferences but it doesn’t seem to have any effect. And the 
docs seem a little shy on this topic, as far as I can tell.

BTW the manual says that to get changes to appear in the output one needs 
dvipost. Seems a little stale and no mention of PDF which output seems to 
appear without adding any packages.

Hi Jerry,

Unfortunately, changes to the Identity in the Preferences work only after a restart of LyX. And the different colors for different identities you get in the work area this way, are not visible in the PDF output. I don't think different colors for different authors in the output are supported currently.
