2017-12-21 23:59:46 +00:00
- It is now possible to cancel background export processes. A menu entry
to do so will appear on the Document menu when such a process is underway.
The LFUN for this is export-cancel.

Align fontenc with document fonts Following a request by Günter, we consider the document fonts (only rm for now) when selecting an appropriate font encoding. See #9741 The new default font encoding setting "auto" does * consider the font encoding needed by the language(s), which can now have fallback alternatives * Consider which font encoding is provided by the document font Thus, cm now will result in OT1 fontenc, if the language can deal with that. The font_enc pref is ditched: it is no longer needed. The automatism is still very basic and is subject to extension. File format and prefs format change.
2018-04-22 17:06:46 +00:00
* \font_encoding
The font encoding is now automatically set depending on the document
fonts and languages.

2017-09-09 08:55:37 +00:00
* \use_qimage
This is no longer necessary due to the rewrite of the painter.
Add note about required svg support in Qt.
2016-05-23 01:04:55 +00:00
Remove support for pixmap cache This code has issues and there is no evidence that it improves performance. Remove LyXRC variable \use_pixmap_cache and update rc format to 29. Now the global pixmap cache is only used by GuiCompleter. Therefore there is no need to reset it when fonts change.
2018-10-07 12:48:05 +00:00
* \use_pixmap_cacheqimage
There is no evidence that this painting mode was useful anymore.
So long, date-insert! This function is superseded by info-insert date, which is much mightier and more flexible.
2018-08-20 07:25:22 +00:00
* \date_insert_format
The function date-insert has been removed and superseded by info-insert date.
The latter does not need a pref value anymore.
RELEASE-NOTES: advise MSVC 2015 update 2 on Win When compiling with Qt 5.6, MSVC 2015 update 2 is recommended in order to avoid #9892.

RELEASE-NOTES: add the new LFUN branch-invert
2016-08-04 05:44:04 +00:00
New LFUN lyx-activate to focus LyX window On Linux and Mac OS, this action brings the LyX window into focus. Such behavior is not allowed by Windows OS so instead the color of the taskbar entry is changed to indicate that the window has changed in some way. The action is hidden in the shortcuts menu because it would make sense to assign a shortcut to it. The only way to execute shortcut would be if the LyX window is already activated. lyx-activate will be used (see next commit) to allow the PDF viewer to switch to LyX after executing a reverse search.

2019-03-26 09:09:55 +00:00
* file-insert: optional second parameter "ignorelang" to make the insertion
ignore the inserted file's main language (and rather adapt it to the insertion
context's language).

* As a result of a major restructuring of the templates and example
directories, almost all examples and templates files have been renamed and
moved to subfolders that reflect the layout category.
The files now have much more decriptive (and longer) names, and they use
URL encoding for specific special characters such as '(', ')' and '&'.
Notably also the file that opens for new users has been renamed (from
splash.lyx to Welcome.lyx).

RELEASE-NOTES: reference wiki with previous notes If users are upgrading from an older version of LyX than the previous major series, they should consult the release notes from the releases in-between.

2018-03-26 19:54:46 +00:00
* Several ttf fonts (esint10.ttf, stmary10.ttf, wasy10.ttf) were changed
to reflect the fact that newer Qt libraries do not support displaying certain
codepoints anymore (bug #8493, #10161).
Distribution packagers need to repack those font files in case they are
delivering the fonts as a separated package dependent from core LyX.
