This file lists interface changes that might affect users in 1.6.0, some
|
|
|
|
known problems in LyX 1.6.0 and some things you have to take into account
|
|
|
|
when upgrading from earlier versions to a version of the 1.6.x series.
|
|
|
|
Note that fixes are available for some of these, but they have not yet
|
|
|
|
been applied because of incomplete testing.

The external template format recognize now a new tag: 'Preview'. This
|
|
|
|
tag is used to define how an external material should be previewed in
|
|
|
|
LyX. For more detail, see the 'external_templates' file in the resource
|
|
|
|
directory of LyX.

LyX 1.6.0 introduces support for the pLaTeX distribution which provides
|
|
|
|
extended language and script support for Japanese. The language
|
|
|
|
"Japanese" now uses this new method. Japanese support via the CJK
|
|
|
|
package is still available, but has been renamed to "Japanese (CJK)".
|
|
|
|
Old documents continue to use the CJK method. Also cf. the "known
|
|
|
|
issues" section for some remaining problems.

|
|
|
- LFUN_NEXT_INSET_MODIFY, "next-inset-modify"

2008-04-27 16:23:14 +00:00
|
|
|
- LFUN_INSET_EDIT, "inset-edit"

|
|
- LFUN_BRANCH_ACTIVATE, "branch-activate"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- LFUN_BRANCH_DEACTIVATE, "branch-deactivate"
|
|
|
|
These can be used in export mode to turn branches on and off.
|
|
|
|
Thus, something like:
|
|
|
|
lyx -e pdf2 -x "branch-activate answers" finalexam.lyx
|
|
|
|
could be used to export a pdf with the answers branch included, without
|
|
|
|
one's having to open LyX and activate the branch manually.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-06-18 18:20:38 +00:00

|
|

- LFUN_FONT_BOLDSYMBOL, "font-boldsymbol"
|
|
|
|
This is the same as LFUN_FONT_BOLD except that in math mode \boldsymbol
|
|
|
|
is used instead of \mathbf.
|
|
|
|
|
2008-09-24 15:13:39 +00:00
|
|
|
- LFUN_COMMAND_ALTERNATIVES, "command-alternatives"
|
|
|
|
This works similarly to command-sequence, except that instead of running
|
|
|
|
each of the commands, it only runs the first one that is enabled. This can
|
|
|
|
be used to bind multiple functions to a single key, and then which one is
|
|
|
|
used will depend upon the context.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2008-09-15 16:54:29 +00:00

- New pLaTeX support for Japanese:
|
|
|
|
* Documents using this method can be backported to 1.5 in pricipal, but
|
|
|
|
the backported documents are not guaranteed to work, since 1.5 falls
|
|
|
|
back to the CJK package; expect the output to differ.
|
|
|
|
* pLaTeX provides a Japanese variant of BibTeX named "jbibtex", which will
|
|
|
|
be selected automatically by LyX. If you run into problems with this or
|
|
|
|
if you need to use an alternative BibTeX program, you can change this
|
|
|
|
setting in the LyX preferences (Output->LaTeX->BibTeX command).

- Since several lyx functions have been renamed (see above), old
|
|
|
|
configuration files (*.ui, *.bind) may no longer work. If some
|
|
|
|
functions (such as Shift-right for selecting text) fail to work
|
|
|
|
after the upgrade from previous versions, make sure you do not
|
|
|
|
have any old configuration files in your LyX user directory, or
|
|
|
|
adapt these files to the new functions.
