From 09fe21bd11c418d0465ff519949b75d716586597 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Stefan Schimanski <sts@lyx.org>

Subject: [PATCH] * QWidget::show is synchronous, hence we see the LyX logo for
 a moment, even if   in the next moment the new buffer appears. So we first
 create the buffer and   then show the view.
