I don't know if you understood it already (or maybe I did not get your
point).
I understood you answer.
There are two possibilities according to Duden 1996:
I check my Duden once again and couldn't find it. No way. The new Duden
even has no R.x rules. they are named K.x
I you have a page numer or something that would be great.
In *both* cases, referring to a sectino results e.g. in "Section 1.2"
(i.e. without the dot after the last number!).
The KOMA option "pointlessnumbers" gives you the result of possibility
1, even if there is an appendix.
The KOMA option "pointednumbers" gives you the result of possibility 2,
even if there is no appendix.
Thanks for your clarification.
Since I have a appendix LaTeX came up with the automatic solution
described in the documentation.
What troubles me most is that it also puts these dots after the words
Figure and Table in all captions which not desired at all.
This was written also at:

appendix. But if you change something in the lyx document and compile
again, the change should become effective.
I try. If not I'd rather switch off than having also doted captions.
