What is going on?
I am opening a LyX file, and I can preview it using Ctrl+R. Then I
open another LyX file, and doing Ctrl+R gives zero response????
I notice that in the one case (Ctrl+R works),

What is this? Why is the menu different for different documents?
My guess is that, for some reason, the second document cannot be
compiled with pdflatex. (Without seeing the documents, it is impossible
to know for sure.) One possibility is that you are using non-TeX fonts
in that document, which requires it to be compiled with XeTeX or LuaTeX.
So the View (PDF (pdflatex)) option is not there, because it cannot be used.
If you want Ctrl-R always to compile the document, then you could assign
something different to it, such as:
buffer-export default
Or you could assign that shortcut to something else. It will use
whatever the default output format for the document is.
