Hi,
thanks for looking into it.
I am sending you an emaciated LYX file and the corresponding compiled PDF file. The compilation is error-free, but ...
I chose TEXINDY as the index processor. (In comparison, the index processors STANDARD, MAKEINDEX and XINDY delivered even worse results.)
The result:
- The entry is now in the table of contents, but further back in the book the index is still with the title "Index".
- The page reference is incorrect.
- The cross-references are not shown, although I have written the command in the TEX code box.
- And the lexical sorting is horrible: All words that begin with an umlaut are grouped under the letter "O".
Please: Help!
Greetings
Andreas

With KOMA-Script, you better do
\KOMAOptions{index=totoc}

How about
\AtBeginDocument{%
\addto\captionsngerman{\renewcommand{\indexname}{Sachregister}}
}
If this fails as well, we need the complete error message: which
control sequence is reported as being undefined?

This depends on the index processor. I recommend texindy. This should
sort German properly. But note that there are two German sorting
varieties, called german-din and german-duden in texindy:
"German recognizes two different sorting schemes to handle umlauts:
normally, "ae" is sorted like "ae", but in phone books or dictionaries,
it is sorted like "a". The first scheme is known as DIN order, the
second as Duden order."
In Document > Settings > Index, select "texindy" as index processor and
add "-L german-din" as option.
If you prefer makeindex to xindy, you need the -g option.
HTH,

Better to ask on LyX devel. We should try to get it compilable with Qt
6. It is not surprising, though, that it isn't.

Subject: Instant preview: different sizes in different situations
Message-ID: <2353728.XAFRqVoOGU@landau>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Using:
LyX v. 2.3.6.1
OS: Fedora Core 33
TeXLive v. 9
I noticed a weird behaviour for some time already with Instant Preview.
In: Preferences -> Look & Feel -> Display -> Instant preview,
if I set Preview size 1.2, then during the edition, when a given formula is
rendered for the first time, the display size is OK.
However, when I restart LyX and resume processing the text, the same formula
is rendered with a much smaller size... very difficult to read.
If I try to circumvent this problem by setting preview size to, say, 1.5,
then on the first time the equation becomes huge, although after restart the
new size is better than with the previous setting.
Has anyone noticed this behaviour as well? I'd say this is a bug, but, I
don't know...

No, not output-wise. These are different input formats provided with
different font encodings. If you write LaTeX in an editor, ,this` is
the fastest input method, but it matches \quotesinglebase
this\textquoteleft.
Not, though, that changing quote styles (e.g. to German guillemets) is
easier if you use Alt+".

Don't think so.
