I need to compile the main.lyx file which is rather annoying.
Is there someway to compile the main.lyx file from a child document?
"Annoying" to one is a "nice feature" to another. This is actually
really a nice feature in LyX because you can actually compile and view
child documents independently from the parent, and with different
formatting (line spacing, margins, etc.). This is not easily done in
LaTeX.
I just switch the focus in LyX back to the "main" file and compile
it. Then you get the whole thing.
