Thanks David and Stephan.
My problem is that I'm working on a multi-file project so under the tmp
directory there are several directories and the location of the Latex
file
depends on the file I compiled (and of course the tmp directory has a
different
name each time under windows).
What I used to do until few months ago is opening the Latex log, and
there I
saw the full path to the compiled file, so I could copy it to a Latex
editor.
After some updates to Lyx & Latex, I see in the log only the file
name without
the path.
I can (and this is what I do) to find the current tmp directory and then
searching for all the Latex files to find the right one by its name.
I hoped there is an option to return to the previous state of easily
finding
the directory with a click.

Dear List,
(continuing on lyx-devel)
Here's a proof-of-concept patch to add an “Open directory…” button to
the log dialog. I did it very quickly which is why I only call it
“proof-of-concept”. If we want to commit this then at least somebody
with better QtDesigner skills should add the button to the interface
in a more proper way.
I, too, used to spend too much time finding the proper lyxtmpdir (for
various reasons ranging from debugging the latex output using
divide-and-conquer when LyX's debugging facility was unsufficient, to
debugging instant preview).
Your proposed button would also solve #9211 "Make the lyxpreview.log
files accessible within LyX".

And I think it's not too bad to expose the LyX internals in this way.
What do you think?
Guillaume
