This file describes what has been done in the preparation of LyX 1.4.4
All comments are welcome.
I'd be glad if some of you could take the time to check it out (or fix
a bug or two if you are feeling adventurous). Let me recall that all
these fixes have been checked into the BRANCH_1_4_X branch, which you
can get with the command
svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_4_X lyx-1.4.x

order of importance. This is, of course, subjective...]
What's new
==========
** Updates:
- Outline support.
- Improve Computer Algebra System support.
- Add support for fixed size math delimiters in math editor.
- Add a wmf -> eps converter (bug 2845) and a latex -> rtf converter.
- The layout lfun without an argument does now set the layout to the default
layout of the text class. This is used by a new button "Default" in the
extra toolbar.
- Add a menu entry for numbered formulas (bug 2901).
- Add the layout file and an example document for the beamer
presentation class (these files where taken from the beamer package
by Till Tantau); new layout file ISPRS (Int. Soc. Photogrammetry &
Remote Sensing); new layout file for Arabic articles; update layout
file for REVTeX4 (bug 1215)
- New external template for LilyPond (a music typesetter).
- New manual Extended-Insets available in English and Spanish. It describes
in detail how to work with tables, graphics, floats, notes, and boxes
- Updated documentation Intro.lyx
- Updated ifpdf documentation in Extended.lyx (+ small grammar and
spelling fixes)
- New Galician localization; update German, Hungarian and Romanian
localization of the interface.
- New Galician translation of the documentation (splash, Intro,
Tutorial); Update German (all), Hebrew (Intro) and Italian
(Tutorial, UserGuide) documentation.
- Convert included vector graphics to pdf instead of png for pdflatex export
(bug 2868). This is implemented with the help of a new format flag "vector"
that you have to set manually for your self defined vector graphics formats
if you want to use this feature.
** Bug fixes:
* Document Input/Output
- Write inherited colors correctly as "inherit" to the .lyx file. Previously
they where written as "default", which was then read in as "none".
Fix some help documents that contained this invalid color.
- Parse the optional argument of the AMS math environments aligned, gathered
and alignedat.
- Support lgathered and rgathered math environments.
- Fix import of \fullcite commands from LaTeX.
- Update bibliography references when the entry has been changed (bug 2744).
- Fixed undo-and-TOC-navigation bug.
- Fixed layout2layout (spurious tabs), so layout files from 1.3 can be read
again.
- Revert fix from 1.4.3 for better display of script insets with a nucleus
with more than one element (like {a'}^{2}), since it was buggy and it is
very difficult to do it right.
- Re-enable Address paragraph style in AMS article classes (bug 2890).
- Write \begin and \end alignment tags on their own lines (bug 3010).
- Fix output of \setlength commands, in order to please latex2html
(bug 2843).
- Import \guilsinglright correctly from .tex files.
- Don't create invalid .lyx files when importing \i{} and \j{} from .tex
files.
- Import \l{} and \L{} natively from .tex files (do not create ERT).
- Import correctly Sweave macros from .tex files.
* User Interface:
- Fix slowness with lots of math on Windows (bug 2900).
- Fix a crash with PageDown/Up when the next/previous paragraph is an inset
taller than the workarea.
- Fix a crash that occured on exit if the clipboard was not empty (only on
windows). This fix was already used by the official windows installer for
1.4.3.
- Fix crash when exiting empty superscript in math editor (bug 2908).
- Fix an undo crash crash with nested font changes in math (bug 3019).
- Disallow pressing the add button in the citation dialog when no citations
are available, preventing a crash (bug 3057).
- Fix deletion of empty paragraph in various situations: paragraphs
with different layouts, layouts with KeepEmpty property, ERT insets,
tabular cells (bugs 2587 and 2882).
- fix bug where icons remain disabled after opening a dialog (bug
2877).
- when a dialog is open in LyX/Mac, make sure that the menu entries
that do not make sense are disabled (bug 1720).
- Fix cursor positioning when opening the VSpace dialog (bug 2869).
- Make clicking in a "wide" inset always enter that inset.
- Avoid "wide" insets in text that is centered or right-justified.
- When selecting with the mouse an area that ends on a collapsable
inset, do not open it by mistake.
- When a box inset has been given a small width, never show it in
inlined mode, since it would make its contents unreadable.
- Give a better error message for missing layout include files.
- Don't show starred sections in Document->Numbering & TOC (bug 2910).
- Make sure that the size changing shortcuts ``M-s <digit>'' work on a
french keyboard too.
- Make all the operations that require walking over all insets faster.
Make MathBigInset working and implement GUI for fixed size math delimiters (by Georg and me) * src/lfuns.h (enum kb_action): New lfun LFUN_MATH_BIGDELIM * src/LyXAction.C (init): New lfun LFUN_MATH_BIGDELIM * src/cursor.C (macroModeClose): try to intepret the current macro before it is simply inserted * src/mathed/math_biginset.[Ch] (name): implement (isBigInsetDelim): new, test whether a given token is a valid MathBigInset delimiter (infoize2): implement to show name if the cursor is to the right * src/mathed/math_biginset.C (size): handle Big, bigg and Bigg (increase): ditto (draw): fix deco drawing (write): don't write space before delimiter but append one if necessary * src/mathed/math_factory.C (createMathInset): handle l->inset == "big" * src/mathed/math_parser.C (asInput): return a token as input, stolen from tex2lyx (parse1): create a MathBigInset when needed * src/mathed/math_nestinset.C (doDispatch): try to intepret the argument of LFUN_SELFINSERT also if it is longer than one character (doDispatch): remove debug message (doDispatch): remove LFUN_MATH_DELIM test for multiple cells (now in getStatus) (doDispatch): handle LFUN_MATH_BIGDELIM (getStatus): Disable LFUN_MATH_DELIM and LFUN_MATH_BIGDELIM when the selection spans multiple cells * src/mathed/math_nestinset.[Ch] (interpret): new, combine the previous math atom with the new character to a MathBigInset if possible * src/mathed/math_support.C (deco_table): add lbrace and rbrace * src/frontends/qt2/QDelimiterDialog.[Ch] (fix_name, QDelimiterDialog, insertClicked, size_selected): Allow for fixed size delimiters. * src/frontends/qt2/ui/QDelimiterDialogBase.ui: Added a combobox for selecting delimiter size. * src/frontends/xforms/forms/form_maths_delim.fd: ditto * src/frontends/xforms/FormMathsDelim.h: Added a private variable to store selected delimiter size * src/frontends/xforms/FormMathsDelim.C: Correct entry in delim_rversion[] for matching braces.

- Only one undo step is needed to undo inset-dissolve (bug 2982).
- Fix spellckecking of Norwegian documents with aspell (bug 2850).
- Don't reset cell selection when opening tabular dialog (bug 2715).

- Fix one more case of copied ERT inset producing wrong language (bug 2476).
- Reset the language when dissolving an ERT inset (bug 2978).

* Build/installation:
- Allow autoconf 2.60 and 2.61 for building.
- Do not warn against using gcc 4.1. It works fine.
