Interesting...
I have KDE 1.1 here
LyX 1.0.3pre4
Linux kernel 2.2.9
LyX performs the behaviour Stephan describes. Here minimising either the
main window or the paragraph window causes both windows to be iconised
into the same icon in the taskbar.
by contrast, in KLyX-0.9.9 the windows are totally independent and have
separate icons in the tastbar.
Make of it what you will.
Wonderful program! Discover something new about it every day.
Shame it's necessary to have both prongs of the fork for full
functionality.
