When viewing, LyX dynamically choose proper preview format based on the

presence of .dvi or .pdf file in the temporary directory (i.e.
|

what format have you used for viewing this particular document).
|

Forward search works both with DVI and PDF output.

LyX simply checks which preview format you have used before (i.

\begin_inset space \thinspace{}

e., which format is already there in the temporary directory) and chooses
