Aw: Re: Index is not displayed
Hi Riki, many thanks for your response. I have a few questions about your suggestions that I would like to quote: I have sometimes had trouble with the index not displaying the first time I export a file. If I change something trivial (add a space at the end of a paragraph, say) and re-export, then it appears. I have already made many, many changes to my 250-page book, which is far from finished. There will probably have been spaces at the end of some paragraphs. Unfortunately that had no effect. One way to try to debug this would be to export the file to LaTeX and run everything manually. Unfortunately I don't understand this: How do I export the file to LaTeX and how do I do everything manually? Or just launch LyX from a terminal, and watch the output when you export. How do I start LyX from a terminal? And how do I observe the output when exporting? Andreas Gesendet: Samstag, 13.

Index is not displayed
Dear Herbert,
I think you are responding to an email from me that is already out of date.
Meanwhile I sent another file WME_Index.lyx, which uses the text processor texindy. Jürgen recommended it to me. Unfortunately that didn't work either.
I can't find the xindex processor you mentioned in my selection list. Instead I find xindy. Did you perhaps mean that? It doesn't work with xindy either.
Even if, as you suggested, I use makeindex as the processor and enter the option "-s german.ist" (Jürgen commented that he cannot find german.ist on his computer), the index is not displayed.
I am very grateful for your other suggestions! I will be happy to implement them in time. But they probably have nothing to do with the index, which is my primary concern. So I can do that at a later time, right?
Andreas

In your preamble you have
- \emergencystretch 1.5em
This is _not_ a good idea. Should only be used in _rare cases_ if TeX is not
able to justify a paragraph. Then you can use instead
\begin{sloppypar}
text...
\end{sloppypar}
With a global setting of emergencystretch you get Word-like documents ...
- \setlength{\parskip}{\medskipamount}
\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}
This is nonsense for KOMAScript documents. Use the optional class setting
parskip=half-
- You are using the font LinixLibertine which is for ages
obsolet. Use
Libertinus Serif and Libertinus Sans instead.
- For your options of your makeindex you have:
-s german.ist -t MWE_Index.ilg -o MWE_Index.idx
That's wrong! You define -o MWE_Index.idx as output file, the reason
why you overwrite the input datafile, which is by default MWE_Index.idx.
Use only
-s german.ist
oder simply xindex as Indexprocessor with optional argument

Index is not displayed
Hi, I'm working on a book (KOMA-Script). Three years ago, a similar LYX document worked without any problems. But now the index is no longer displayed to me. Based on advice from the community (Jürgen) at the time, I chose texindy as the index generator. So far I have entered the following options in the settings: -L german-duden -C utf8 --module "C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\xindy\modules\base\numalpha" The generated idx file looks correct - it is stored in a temporary directory. I'm working with LYX 2.3.7 on Windows 11 Home, version 23H2. I am attaching a significantly reduced LYX file that focuses on creating the index. Can you help me please? Thanks in advance Andreas MWE_Index.lyx Description: application/lyx -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
