This is more simple as it is only executed when the file is changed:

Does it work with PDF updating (that is, when the PDF viewer is not
started by LyX but only the file is updated)? How do you check whether
the file has been modified?
I only have one toolbar button to view PDFs. When it is pressed the program checks if the file
exists or not and do then the needed things. That there is then only one toolbar button needed has
often been discussed in the past. I proposed to do the same also for DVI and EPS, buth there were
some arguments that this won't be a solution for Linux users.
From the Windows point of view, it is user friendly that I don't have to take care about the
correct toolbar button, I click the only one and can view my PDF. What needs to be done in the
background is not important for the user.
