What's new in version 1.6.8? What's new in version 1.6.9?
---------------------------- ----------------------------
** Updates:
***********
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
- Add support for pBibTeX (formerly known as jBibTeX), a specific Japanese
BibTeX variant (bug 6808).
- New environment variable LYX_FORCE_OVERWRITE allows changing default
behavior when exporting from command line. Now LyX overwrites the main
file by default, but not the ancillary files. Set this variable to
"all" for letting LyX behave as in 1.6.6 and previous versions; set it
to "none" for mimicking the 1.6.7 behavior of not overwriting any file.
- New layout and template file for submissions to journals published by
the American Geophysical Union (AGU).
- New layout and template file for submissions to journals published by
the Econometric Society (bug 6761).
- New layout and template file for the document class frletter that is
used to write letters in French (bug 6915).
- New layout and template file for the document class lettre, another
French letter class.
- Add support for subtitles in the KOMA classes.
- Add support for lists and quotes in the g-brief2 letter class
(bug 6857).
- Add support for the math command \ddddot (part of bug 6872).
* USER INTERFACE
- Improve the detection of LaTeX warnings in the Log dialog.
- Citations in the outline now display the key (bug 6837).
* DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION
- Introducing Serbian (Latin) localization of LyX: A large part of the
user interface has been translated already.
- New Serbian (Latin) translation of the Splash document.
- Revised section 4.2 "Footnotes" of the EmbeddedObjects manual.
- Revised section 5.1 "Installing a new LaTeX package" of the
Customization manual.
- Describe how to use formulas in program listings in sec. 7 of the
EmbeddedObjects manual.
- Updated LaTeXConfig file.
- Updated English and German Linguistics manual.
- Updated French beamer template fr_beamer-conference-ornate-20min.
- Updated French, German, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese,
Portuguese, Spanish, Slovak and Ukrainian User Interface localizations.
* BUILD/INSTALLATION
- Allow autoconf 2.67.
** Bug fixes:
*************
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
- Fix a crash when dropping multiple files onto LyX (bug 6944).
- Fix a crash due to unrecognized \defskip (bug 7014).
- Assure that Japanese LaTeX (pLaTeX) is in fact only used for Japanese
documents. This fixes major configuration problems with TeXLive 2010.
- Fix the output of glyph 0x02e0 (MODIFIER LETTER SMALL GAMMA) (bug 6817).
- Load the amsmath LaTeX-package when the math command \dddot is used to
avoid LaTeX errors (bug 6872).
- Do not popup "invalid path" warning when using View > Source (bug 6904).
- Small tweaks to the memoir text class.
- Allow pathnames with commas for BibTeX files (bug 6914).
- Set correct anchor for the link to the bibliography in the table
of contents if hyperref is used (bug 6470).
- Save the path of pasted images as a relative path (part of bug 5561).
- Don't escape math labels when saving (bug 7019).
* USER INTERFACE
- Do not allow to rename a format's short name if the format is used by a
converter. This prevents a crash (bug 6815).
- Fix crash when mutating eqnarray-like environments with labeled lines
to display equations (bug 6858).
- Disable cut and paste inside the Math Delimiters dialog. This was of no
use and could trigger a crash (bug 6942).
- Fix a crash when editing a macro name under some circumstances (for
example, when the macro is followed by a script inset and another
macro) (bug 6965).
- Fix an assertion when unindenting empty lines in a listings inset
(bug 6869).
- Box dialog: only shaded boxes can have multiple paragraphs if there
is no inner box (fixes also bug 6992).
- Fix mouse wheel scrolling on Mac OS 10.6 (bug 6775).
- Fix tab-switching keyboard shortcut (bug 5970).
- Fix parsing of inline math environments nested in (unknown to LyX)
text-mode user macros (bug 1337).
- When undo returns to a state where the file was saved, make sure to
reset the (changed) status (bug 3733).
- Don't allow to insert margin notes and floats into tables because this
would lead to LaTeX errors (bug 6844).
- Don't allow to insert margin notes and footnotes into captions because
this would lead to LaTeX errors.
- Fix handling of commands containing a straight quote (") in shortcut
editor (bug 6786).
- Use correct mode and screen fonts for old-style font changing macros
(\bf, \cal, \it, \rm, and \tt) in math (bug 6851).
- Retain the first non-empty label when mutating eqnarray-like environments
to a display equation (bug 6793).
- Load files in correct order when passed as arguments via the command
line (bug 6848).
- Fix parsing of commands sent through the lyxserver, such that they don't
need to be terminated by a newline character (bug 6868).
- Don't try to blindly execute the latex command if no latex binary is
available (bug 6873).
- Fix button link assignment in "Select from Template" dialog.
- Don't mark document as changed when navigating with cell-forward
or cell-backward.
- Correct check for enable condition of VC repository update.
- Correct enabled check for LFUN_MATH_NUMBER_TOGGLE.
Avoid implicit conversion of enum to bool.
- Fix some accelerator conflicts in Document Class dialog (bug 6963).
- Do not warn any changes will be lost when reverting to the
saved file if the document is clean (bug 6550).
- Restore the cursor position when showing hidden documents (bug 5878).
- Make the input completion case sensitive again (bug 6983).
