Hm... I opened a new document of the template, and in this new template, the

where I'm in the process of inserting text from an OCR scanned paper copy of a
document I wrote 30 years ago... (using Adobe Acrobat for OCR).
This is weird. Maybe some junk from the imported, scanned document? I'll test
some more.
You can also try whether making a copy of your problem document and
opening the copy makes a difference. As far as I remember this should
force LyX to regenerate the preview.

OK -- in your LyX file, Instant preview works ok. Two questions:
* Could it depend on which *style* I use?
So what style are you using? Can you send a (somewhat) minimal document where
the problem occurs?

LyX Version 2.3.1-1

That is the latest version and the same I am using.
(There might have been a misunderstanding. I thought you menat your Windows version by
"latest version" but I guess you did mean LyX. The information I sent was on
the Windows version I am using.)

I use LyX 2.3.1 (64bit) on 64bit Win 10, latest version, and have Instant
preview turned on.
I need to insert some text in an equation. Two options:
* \text{my text}
* \mathrm{text}
With \text{}, space is automatically handled. With \mathrm{}, I need to use the
escape character (backslash) to get space. There are probably also some spacing
differences -- I assume \text{} is the correct choice if I write text and not
math.
There is a problem with \text{} if I use Instant preview *on*...: if I include character
"ø" in the text string, it shows if I turn Instant preview *off*, but is
removed if I turn Instant preview *off*.
The generated PDF file *includes* the symbol "ø", but ... it does not show up
in the preview with Instant preview turned *on*.
Presumably, this is a problem with other non-English ASCII characters, too?
-B
I cannot reproduce the problem. The ø in the attached file shows with instant
preview turned on.
This is on Windows 10 Pro 64bit version 17134.345. ("latest version"
is a bit ambigous since there are different update tracks and the
recently pulled "October 2018 Update".)
