Public release of LyX version 1.3.6

===================================

We are pleased to announce the release of LyX 1.3.5.
|
We are pleased to announce the release of LyX 1.3.6.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This is mainly a bugfix release, with few notable user-visible
|
Unix and MacOSX users should consider this to be a bugfix release.
|
||||||
improvements. However, we would like to highlight two fixes in particular:
|
|
||||||
* Nested documents (with Insert>Include File...), which have been
|
|
||||||
broken since LyX 1.2.0, should now work properly, including the
|
|
||||||
case where the files are in different directories.
|
|
||||||
* It is now possible to compile LyX with gcc 3.4.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To Windows users, however, LyX 1.3.6 is the first version of LyX
|
||||||
|
to support the platform officially. This means that we've put a huge
|
||||||
|
effort into squashing those bugs that were present in Ruurd Reitsma's
|
||||||
|
unofficial ports to Windows. Large chunks of the code base have been
|
||||||
|
touched in an attempt to resolve these problems so whilst we're
|
||||||
|
confident that LyX/Win 1.3.6 will be the best ever version of LyX on
|
||||||
|
Windows, we cannot say that it's bug free.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We would like to highlight three fixes in particular:
|
||||||
|
* It is now possible to typeset files which reside in a directory with
|
||||||
|
spaces in its name; this requires a modern TeX implementation (such
|
||||||
|
as teTeX 3.0).
|
||||||
|
* It is possible to use Ctrl-PageDown and Control-PageUp (<cmd>-tab
|
||||||
|
and <cmd>-backtab with Qt/Mac) to switch between the open documents.
|
||||||
|
* LaTeX-type accents, ligature breaks and hyphenation marks are now
|
||||||
|
considered as part of words

|
||||||
==========
|
==========
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
** Updates
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Add a new textclass, svglobal. It is needed for various
|
|
||||||
Springer Verlag journals for which no specific class exists.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Add a new bindings file mac.bind for LyX/Mac.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The script used to control the generation of bitmap images for use
|
|
||||||
in 'Instant Preview' of math equations has been re-written in python.
|
|
||||||
Windows users now have some chance of getting Instant Preview to
|
|
||||||
work for them.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The built-in Qt dialogs are now correctly translated for the
|
|
||||||
languages that Qt supports [Qt >= 3.2 only].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Add support for Icelandic, Latvian, Lithuanian and Nynorsk.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Updated the Basque, Danish, German, Italian, Romanian, Russian (fix crash
|
|
||||||
when autosaving) and Spanish localizations. Updated the Basque and German
|
|
||||||
documentation.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
** Bug fixes
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Document input/output:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Partly fix the handling of included files. External insets are still not
|
|
||||||
working correctly [bug #605].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix nesting of language change commands, especially important for
|
|
||||||
Arabic [bugs #1225, #1404].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix missing line break in front of \end{...} in some cases [bug #1225].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Run makeindex and bibtex correctly when the file name contains some
|
|
||||||
special characters [bug #1526].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Prevent clashes with LaTeX packages defining "\boldsymbol" [bug #1498].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Make import of the preamble of LaTeX files more robust [bug #1584].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix handling of floats and counters in svjog and svprobth
|
|
||||||
textclasses [bug #1430].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix handling of counters in the scrlettr and scrlttr2 classes.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix off-by-one-error which caused LyX to choose the wrong custom margin
|
|
||||||
package.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Remove extra spaces around math insets in plain text output.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Quote shell variables correctly in the generated sh script used
|
|
||||||
to control the conversion of graphics images to a loadable format.
|
|
||||||
Ditto for the convertDefault.sh script.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* User Interface:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Use opening quotation marks after an opening square bracket.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix the toggling of the short title inset in some cases.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- When the autodetection of latex classes cannot be done for some
|
|
||||||
reason, provide a sensible list of textclasses.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Honor correctly the various locale-related environment variables when
|
|
||||||
looking for translated help files.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Prevent activation of the Ok and Apply buttons in the reference
|
|
||||||
dialog when simply manipulating the list of references in the dialog.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Set the default button in the print dialog, activated on Return,
|
|
||||||
to be the Ok button rather than the Close button. [bug #1465, Qt only].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Enable instant preview to work on Solaris machines.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix an annoying "could not delete temp dir" warning.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix some math bindings like "M-m [" for german or french keyboards.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Don't allow the insertion of incomplete citation references,
|
|
||||||
which led to a crash [bug 1617].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Correct the spelling of the "Acknowledgements" style in the APA layout.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Configuration/Installation:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- When running under Windows, configure correctly the ps and pdf
|
|
||||||
viewers [bug #1508].
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The Qt-related parts of the configure script honors the environment
|
|
||||||
variables MOC and UIC if they are set.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The precompiled .pyc files in the lib/lyx2lyx/ directory are not
|
|
||||||
distributed anymore, since they were not correct anyway.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix compilation for OpenBSD.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix compilation with SGI C++ compiler.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix compilation with gcc 3.4.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix linking with Qt/Mac 3.3.1.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Fix warning with automake 1.7.
