Please file separate bug reports for each of these:
https://www.lyx.org/trac/newticket. You might want to look through the
existing math bugs first:

https://www.lyx.org/trac/query?status=accepted=assigned=new=reopened=mathed=id=summary=status=type=priority=milestone=component=priority

to make sure one's not already filed. If so, please feel free to add info.

Some (old?) math display problems

2018-07-24 Thread list_email
LyX Version 2.3.0
macOS 10.11.6

I’m back to writing again and I think I’m seeing some old friends that I would 
rather not see. Maybe someone can suggest work-arounds. These relate to math.

When I enter one or more inline math things in a paragraph and then hit RETURN 
to start a new paragraph, the Equations part of the Outline pane shows an empty 
set of parentheses, (), for each inline math thing. Since they don’t show any 
useful information, just (), I think this is not good. Oddly, closing and 
re-opening the file makes them disappear from the panel.

With Instant Preview on, each new numbered display equation, after rendering to 
the “preview” state, is shown numbered as equation 1. Again, after closing and 
re-opening the document, the previews show the correct equation number.

Again with Instant Preview on, equation labels are shown in a box on their own 
line below the equation. But if the label is more than a few characters long 
and if my window or split is set to say 50% of the width of my laptop’s screen, 
the label is clipped on the right, not displaying the entire label. I notice a 
polite vertical line of red dots at the place that this happens but the 
clipping is still present. Yet,there is a section of unused white space to the 
left of the label—the label could be moved left and enjoy a much larger area.
