When "Single Instance" is checked, LyX opens documents in an already running instance, communicating with it through the "LyXServer pipe". Lacking the one or the other, LyX opens documents in a new instance. If the problem that you experience is that the LyX window is not brought to front even when no other instance is already running, then this is not covered by the patch you reference and must be a quirk of Windows. > But it doesn't work. Just to be sure, you tested on Windows beta1, right? Yep. -- Enrico

If so, it seems not to work. If not, maybe it can make it to rc1? The patch is in beta1. If the feature doesn't work, then that means the fix didn't work for you. Yes, when opening LyX files from the explorer, LyX still does not come to the top. Strange, I thought I tested the patch before and it worked. But I probably did not try it from the explorer but rather from the command line. I am not sure there is a difference wrt the problem. It works for me. Make sure that you have "Single Instance" checked and "LyXServer pipe" defined in the preferences. I have it checked and defined, respectively. (Though I am wondering why "Single instance" should make a difference at all and "LyXServer pipe" at least for opening documents from the explorer.) But it doesn't work.
