This is a proposal, but I think you should try it out in order to comment
What this does, is:
1. Remove the toggle madness. This is really not something anyone
understands without knowing the code, and its very unusual UI
(fixes#4836)
2. Separate and group things that were put all into the "Misc" trashcan
combo
3. Let the dialog reflect the font settings at cursor (selection)
Now the dialog looks more like character dialogs from other applications,
and I think it is more in line with what users expect.
Comments very welcome (and of course I will revert if you want to have
the old idiosyncratic thing back).
Instead of "Save" (permanently) and "Apply" (temporarily), OK and Apply
now always save permanently, unless the new checkbox "Apply to current
session only" is checked.

Following a request by Günter, we consider the document fonts (only rm
for now) when selecting an appropriate font encoding.
See #9741
The new default font encoding setting "auto" does
* consider the font encoding needed by the language(s), which can now
have fallback alternatives
* Consider which font encoding is provided by the document font
Thus, cm now will result in OT1 fontenc, if the language can deal with
that.
The font_enc pref is ditched: it is no longer needed.
The automatism is still very basic and is subject to extension.
File format and prefs format change.
- the column width must be as wide as the column header text
- also center the radiobuttons in the table
- also use alternating colors for the table rows
* Describe the viewport/bb situation more accurate
* Use generic term "coordinates", since bb and viewport are flavor-specific
* Add some tooltips
* Increase the width of the options widget.
Due to its peculiarity of not being saved in the document, the
shell escape setting was applied immediately without the need
for hitting the Apply or OK buttons. However, for uniformity
sake, it is better to adhere to the established paragdim of
confirming any changes before applying them.
Allow a LaTeX backend to run external commands after user confirmation.
This is a per document and per machine setting. The authorization has
to be given through the document settings pane, but is not recorded in
the document itself. Moving the document to either another computer or
another directory on the same computer revokes the authorization.
This can also be done by right clicking the red icon that appears in
the status bar when a document is marked as one requiring shell escape.
The patch also checks whether the user has added the -shell-escape
option to a LaTeX converter and nags the user to remove the option
(which would be used for all documents) in favor of the (per document)
support offered by LyX.
Update the listings inset to optionally use the minted package
(instead of the listings one) for typesetting code listings.
Only one of the two packages can be used in a document, but it
is possible to switch packages without issues if the used options
are the same. If a switch is made and the options differ, one needs
to manually adjust them if they were entered in the advanced options
tab, or apply again the gui settings.
Note that minted requires the -shell-escape option for the latex
backend and the installation of additional software (python pygments).
- Adds a currentZoom variable which holds the current zoom level.
- The zoom stored in preferences is used as default zoom level (default binding:
M+0).
- The currentZoom is saved and restored via QSettings.
- Adds LFUN buffer-zoom for (re)setting zoom.
Rephrase positively the check box for the output of en- and em-dashes
and disable it when using non-TeX fonts. The state of the check box
is remembered, so that toggling the non-TeX fonts check box does not
cause information loss.
This commit fixes the regression introduced in 2.2 about the
output of en- and em-dashes. In 2.2 en- and em-dashes are output as
the \textendash and \textemdash macros when using TeX fonts, causing
changed output in old documents and also bugs (for example, #10490).
Now documents produced with older versions work again as intended,
while documents produced with 2.2 can be made to produce the exact
same output by simply checking "Don't use ligatures for en-and
em-dashes" in Document->Settings->Fonts.
When exporting documents using TeX fonts to earlier versions, in order
to avoid changed output, a zero-width space character is inserted after
each en/em-dash if dash ligatures are allowed. These characters are
removed when reloading documents with 2.3, so that they don't accumulate.
File format change.
This allows for the relevant InsetCommand-based dialogs (such as
citation text before/after, Bibitem label, hyperlink name etc.)
to provide both the input of verbatim code or text that is transformed
to proper LaTeX code.
Some dialogs (Nomencl, Href) already had some methods (although they
could not be toggled), which are now centralized and streamlined.
The initial work of this patch has been done by Georg Baum (see
http://www.lyx.org/trac/attachment/ticket/2751/x.diff)
Fixes: #2751, #8227.
These are biblatex-specific multicite commands that allow for multiple
pre- and postnotes, as in:
\cites(pre)(post)[pre1][post1]{key1}[pre2][post2]{key2}...
with an optional general pre- and postnote, which applies to the whole
list (like [][] in normal cite commands) and an optional pre- and
postnotes for each item, so that pagination can actually be specified in
multi-cite references, as in:
(cf. Miller 2015, 2; furthermore Smith 2013, 23-23; Jenkins 2012, 103,
also refer to chapter 6 in this book)
See the biblatex manual, sec. 3.8.3., for details.
File format change.
