There could be an important disadvantage with the new setup. Now, per-graph I can overrule the prefs display by selecting one of Monochrome, Grayscale, and Color. One graph may be better visible in Grayscale, another in Color (I experienced this myself!). If the prefs sets the display mode for all graphs, and per-graph I only can check a "do/don't display", I loose this flexibility of selecting per-graph the best display mode. So if a graph is not so nice visible in LyX, I have to change the prefs, but that may affect another graph's visibility. (With "better visible" I mean the quality it appears on the LyX canvas.) Rob.
