Not sure why it won't work, then. I take it you are on Linux? If so, then look at the folder ~/.config/LyX/. This is (at least here) where these kinds of settings are stored. I have two files there: lyx.conf and lyx2.4.conf. The former is the one for 'released' LyX. If you open that file (or can find lyx.conf in some other location), then you will see a bunch of stuff like: [views] 0\citation\autofind=true 0\citation\casesensitive=false Find the line beginning 0\layout. Delete that line. That should restore the defaults. Alternatively, have a look at the 0\standard lines. It is possible that 'movability' has somehow been disabled. Riki
