The LyX team. http://www.lyx.org -What's new in LyX 2.0.1 +What's new in LyX 2.0.2 ======================= -The support for using external files in ERT has been improved by the -introduction of a prefix for the TEXINPUTS environment variable. -This prefix can be set in preferences and by default includes the -document directory (represented by a single '.'). The prefix can -be set to any list of paths separated by the default separator for -a given platform (':' on unix like systems and ';' on windows). -When a file should be included by LaTeX, the paths listed in TEXINPUTS -will be searched in turn for finding it. Note that any non-absolute -path listed in the TEXINPUTS prefix is considered to be relative to the -document directory, i.e., the directory where the LyX file lives. -Users are advised to always include '.' (the document dir) as one of -the path components, otherwise compilation may fail for some documents. -This is because the previous (undocumented) mechanism based on the use -of the \input@path macro has been dropped. The old mechanism did not -work in all cases and was kind of a hack. Old documents using that -undocumented hack for obtaining the path of the LyX file will have to -be revised. A clean way for obtaining the document path is using the -info inset through the "info-insert buffer path" LyX function. ** Updates: *********** -* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT - -- Allow for a maximum of 3 minutes for the completion of a spawned command - except on Windows, where 30 minutes are allowed. This is because the - Windows installer may trigger MiKTeX updates that suffer from network - latencies. - -- Improved XHTML output of various fractions. - -- A prefix for the TEXINPUTS environment variable can be specified in the - preferences. The directory of a LyX document is represented by a single - dot '.' or by the prefix "./". Also, any non-absolute path will be - prepended with the LyX document directory. - -- Updated templates to current LyX format, so no conversion will be - needed. - -- Allow LaTeX import of \uline (bug 7640). - -- Fix compilation error occurring when a LyX document resides in a directory - whose name contains characters that are special to LaTeX (bug 6170). - - -* USER INTERFACE - -- Updated Czech, French, German, Japanese, Interlingua, Italian, Polish, - Portuguese, Serbian (Latin), Spanish, Swedish and Ukrainian User - Interface Localization. - -- Now it is not necessary to restart LyX after changing the default - document directory and/or the PATH prefix in the preferences for them - to take effect. - -- Menu View->Source for documents with XHTML default output format now displays - only the current paragraph, except when complete source is requested - (bug 7463). - -- Size tab now enables and disables correctly depending on the capabilities - configured for the current external template (selected via the combo). - -- Sort entries in the "More Formats and Options" dialog (bug 7714). - -- Enable "Accept compound" preference setting for Aspell backend only. - Reconfigure the aspell backend when "Accept compound" preference is - changed immediately. - - -* DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION - -- UserGuide: - - new section how to define custom header/footer lines - (bug 7196). - - new section about customized lists - - new section about comparison of LyX documents - - new section about the document's colors settings - - revised Appendix A and B - -- EnbeddedObjects manual: - - describe that LyX supports now the changing of the color of the - greyed-out box text - - new chapter about objects surrounded by text - -- Math manual: add a note about column limit for decorated matrices. - -- Updated French documentation files. - -- updated template file for the latest version of the ACM siggraph - LaTeX-package. - -- updated layout and template file for the latest version of the IJMPC - LaTeX-package. - -- updated layout and template file for the latest version of the IJMPD - LaTeX-package. - - -** Bug fixes: -************* - -* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT - -- Fixed crash when outputing the unitone command to XHTML or when using - such commands with mathematica, octave, or maple. - -- Fix output of non-TeX font names with non-ASCII characters and associated - assertion (bug 7569). - -- Fix output of decimally aligned columns in unviewed (on screen) tables. - -- Fix problem with indentation of bibliography items. Note that older files - may still exhibit this problem, since the label string "References" (or a - translation of it) may have been written to the file. - -- Inform user of unknown layouts caused by class change (bug 7571). -
