2016-09-23 21:29:26 +00:00
- LyX keyboard shortcuts now take precedence over Qt accelerators. In
particular, under KDE, the automatic accelerator reassignment no longer steals
keys from LyX shortcuts (but can still leave some accelerators
inoperable). (bug 10261, see http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/10261#comment:16
for a workaround to KDE's bug.)
- Do not issue an error on missing characters in 'nullfont' (bug 10394).

$\textbf{\textsc{a}}$ is also boldened on screen other than in output.
- When selecting special logos, set their color correctly.
2016-10-26 14:20:02 +00:00

line.

10135).
- Fix height of cursor inside insets (bug 10478).
- Fix bad painting of collapsable insets sub-label when selecting (bug 10475).
- Always prefer breaking lines at word boundaries even for very long words. This
fixes line breaking issues most noticeably in languages where spaces are rare
such as Chinese (bug 10299).
2016-04-16 22:23:03 +00:00
- Do not use the clipboard stack when transforming selection into an
inset (bug 6570).
Fix display and output of math macros with optional arguments This is a long standing issue, present since the new math macros inception in version 1.6. It manifests as a display issue when a macro with optional arguments appears in the optional argument of another macro. In this case the display is messed up and it is difficult, if not impossible, changing the arguments as they do not appear on screen as related to a specific macro instance. It also manifests as latex errors when compiling, even if the latex output is formally correct, due to limitations of the xargs package used to output the macros. Most probably, both aspects have the same root cause, as simply enclosing in braces the macro and its parameters solves both issues. However, when reloading a document, lyx strips the outer braces enclosing a macro argument, thus frustrating this possible workaround. This commit solves the display issue by correctly accounting for macros with optional arguments nested in the argument of another macro, and circumvents the xargs package limitations causing errors by enclosing in braces the macros with optional arguments appearing in the argument of an outer macro when they are output. This means that when loading an old document with such macros and saving it again, the macro representation is updated and will have these additional braces. However, as such braces are stripped by lyx on loading, there is no risk that they accumulate. See also this thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg197828.html
