To my understanding, when you choose a View command, Lyx creates the corresponding files in a subfolder of the Temporary folder that is indicated in: Tools/Preferences/Paths/Temporary Folder box. The name of this folder begins with lyx... . When you export, it uses thye base folder in which your actual Lyx document resides.
