Neither nor. Something seems to have gone wrong on your side with the
preferences, maybe during update, but this is difficult to trace back.

It seems to be working now. Many thanks. Should I have been able to figure this

The latter shouldn't be the case. How exactly did you try to change
this setting?

> When I view the master document, I get the whole document correctly.

And you should get only the included children (and the master).

What error does "View master document" give?

I am sorry, but I do not understand this. First, I do:

>  Document > Settings > Child Document from the master, include only
> the desired child and click "Maintain counters and references”. 

And save it. But if I (immediately) check again the setting is back to “Include 
all children”. When I view the master document, I get the whole document 
correctly.

Suppose I want to edit the included Chapter 2. I can right click on it in the 
master, to open the LyX version of the included file, and make changes. Now I 
would like to view those changes, with proper references, citations, and 
numbering. “View master document” gives an error.  “Buffer-view pdf” does not 
show the references, citations, and numbering. 

Am I hoping for too much or am I doing something wrong?

This is my attempt to find out what is going on:

Why are the buffer files of lyx shown, but tells they are not found?
The newest one is the first  (marked >>>1st one)kwrite
the older one are below it

If I click on the
Buffer_convertLyXFormatLIfocI.lyx  lyx_tmpbuf0  lyx_tmpbuf2
lyx opens but:

Das Dokument /tmp/lyx_tmpdir.vblaVyVPIGKk/master.lyx existiert noch nicht.

I can open it, however, with a text editor (kwrite)

All very strange and confusing for me.

Wolfgang


by the way, I have lyx 2.4.0-alpha3 in /usr/local/bin (Debian)

and lyx 2.3.1 in /usr/share

typing lyx starts 2.4.0-alpha3

since I can't work with lyx at the time being, I would like to go back 
to 2.3.1.
How would I do that and from where can I use the lyx2lyx conversion tool 
to convert my latest lyx files back into .23?

Jürgen,
I don't think there is something wrong with lyx, but something 
fundamentally with my setup.


It doesn't matter, which lyx file I open, even older ones, it is always 
complained about


/tmp/lyx_tmpdir.cdYNZXaQcdMu/Buffer_convertLyXFormatlDWwUz.lyx ist kein 
lesbares LyX-Dokument.


But I don't know how to continue the search for a reason

I'll try to ask in the User Group Tuebingen, wheter they have an idea

Is there a way to avoid the /tmp/lyx_tmpdir.cdYNZXaQcdMu/Buffer
??

Wolfgang
