Hello,

thank you all. I will indeed make a copy an delete the parts I do not want to be printed, this is less effort definitely.
I am everything, but a programmer…

Thanks again, best
Jess


Yes, this would be a way, but a uncomfortable way:
As my main text is very long and has lots of branches, it would be much more convenient, if there would be a possibility to disable the main text. Otherwise I would have to put quite a few parts into a new branch.
Is there no other way?

LyX offer no other way. There is no way to disable "anything that is not
in some branch".

I can see two ways:
* Add all those branches to the rest.
* Make a copy of the document, where you delete what you don't want.

If you are a programmer, then you have more options:
* Make a script that removes anything not in a branch
 from a copy of the .lyx file. Then open the reduced copy
 in lyx, and print it. Might not be that hard, if
 you use a scripting language that is good for text
 processing.
* Or, make a script that stuffs everything that isn't in some
 branch already, into a new branch.
* If you know C++: implement what you want in LyX.
