FWIW polyglossia just received this feature for the next release
(probably due early next month):
https://github.com/reutenauer/polyglossia/commit/f737588814a73419dcd8b6c9abac485a4b623adb

This should then hyphenate such words correctly out of the box.

Is this with babel or polyglossia?

With babel, there is the shorthand "a (etc.) to implement this.
Polyglossia doesn't support this yet (worth a feature request
at https://github.com/reutenauer/polyglossia/issues)

Maybe it is polyglossia. Look at the Tex file or do not use the preamble,
but the beginning of the document.

Dutch 'trema' not handled as required in hyphenation

2023-05-28 Thread R. H. van der Gaag
Hi there fellow LyXers,
I noticed that the Dutch ‘trema’ (the dots above ü ä ï ö ë) isn’t removed when 
the word is hyphenated directly before the letter with the trema (it should, to 
comply with grammar rules. In LaTeX, 

\usepackage{newunicodechar}
\makeatletter
\newunicodechar{ë}{\@trema e}
\newunicodechar{ï}{\@trema i}
\newunicodechar{ö}{\@trema o}
\newunicodechar{ä}{\@trema a}
\newunicodechar{ü}{\@trema u}
\makeatother

takes care of this, but adding the same lines to the preamble in LyX doesn’t. 
Am I overlooking something? How can I make this work?

Thanks a lot, this takes care of it brilliantly.
