This brings the external inset on par with the graphics insets as far as the
clipping option is concerned. The graphicxs package supports both: A bounding
box without units (which means that bp ia assumed), and a bounding box with
units, so we can simply output the values including the units.
Being able to compile document with zipped .eps files was a useful feature of
the graphicxs package 20 years ago, but the LyX support is no longer relevant:
- The flag is ignored if preview is on
- If pdflatex is used then uncompressing happens during the compilation anyway
- If set, the flag prevents LyX from issuing proper error messages if
something with the image is wrong
- For hard disk capacities from 20 years ago not uncompressing is a useful
feature, but for current hard disk capacities it does not matter
- The external inset does not have it, and if we want to merge both insets
one day we would need to implement it there, which is even more difficult
than in InsetGraphics
The math parser could not handle multicolumn grids. This is a problem because
there is no true ERT in math (everything is parsed).
Now multicolumn cells are parsed correctly. The display is also somewhat OK,
but apart from that any multicolumn related UI is missing. Since the file
format change is now done the UI can be added at any later point. The most
important part of bug 396 is now fixed: tex2lyx does not create invalid .lyx
files anymore for formulas containing \multicolumn.
I updated the tex2lyx test cases that produce correct output. tex2lyx does
still produce invalid output for the test cases which are not updated because
of the previous format change.
Revert "tex2lyx testfiles: update to latest fileformat"
This reverts commit afdfc3cf43501a0728cef79385b31afe6f4cf877.
The tex2lyx test vrefernces must be produced by tex2lyx, otherwise the tests
would still fail.
This is the rersult of a discussion on the list. Now all special characters
have meaningful names, and it is clear that the LyX file syntax is not LaTeX.
Previously, LyX did replace some words with typeset logos, and there was no
way to prvent this except putting them, in ERT (bug #4752). Now we have
special insets for these words, and standard text is left alone.
Previously, consecutive dashes in .lyx files were combined to endash and emdash
in some cases, and in other cases they were output as is. This made the code
complicated, and resulted in inconsitencies ((bug #3647).
Now, a dash in a .lyx file is always a dash in the output, for all flavours.
The special handling is moved to the input side, so that you still get an
endash if you type two hyphens. If needed, this can be changed or made
customizable without the need to update the file format again. Many thanks
for the fruitful mailing list dicsussion, which contributed significantly to
the final version.
This is a follow-up of bug #8967. The implementation is self-explaining, the
only part which needs a comment is lyx2lyx: Since a 100% correct solution is
not possible, it has been decided not to switch amsmath off in the forward
conversion if no other ams command than \smash[t] and \smash[b] is used, but
to consider it a bug that older versions do not load amsmath automatically for
these commands. In the backward direction it is easy to keep the document
compilable, so just do that.
LyX, lyx2lyx and tex2lyx produce now all the same version indicator consisting
only of the major and minor version. It is not decided yet whether future
development versions will add a -dev suffix, but for 2.1.0 this change fixes
the inconsistencies.
In roundtrip mode, tex2lyx produces documents with extension lyx.lyx, so that
the original files are not overwritten on re-export. This was not done for
included documents which were converted, and this broke 'make dist'.
These should be used if any new style needs to be introduced in the stable
2.1 series: If the ForceLocal flag of the style is set, it will always be
written to the document header, so that even older 2.1 versions can read
and correctly output the document.
The LyX file format only supports one CJK font mapping per document.
Therefore all CJK environments which use a different mapping than the main
one are output in ERT. THis is now explained in the test case, and also the
converion to ERT is improved (although it is still wrong e.g. for paragraphs).
These encodings were not defined, since they must not be used as document
encodings (the characters {, } and \ may appear in high bytes, and latex
would be confused). However, they are supported by CJK.sty (which uses a
preprocessor to circumvent the limitations of the latex executable). These
encodings are now defined, but used for import in tex2lyx only.
The test case CJK.tex contained fake tests for shift-jis and big5 (the
japanese and chinese characters were entered using the utf8 encoding), and
therefore the wrong interpretation of these encoding looked as if it worked.
The comments about missing iconv support of shift-jis and big5 were wrong as
well (otherwise shift-jis-plain would not work either).
Actually, the test case showed several problems:
- ERT insets did use layout "Standard", not "Plain Layout"
- The font scale was read correctly, but tex2lyx claimed that it did ignore
the option "scaled=0.95"
- If a third argument of the CJK environment was given, it caused the whole
environment to be put in ERT with a broken encoding. This is now fixed for
the bug test case by using the \font_cjk header variable, but the encoding
problem still exists for unsupported encodings. I'll file a separate bug
for that.
- The CJKutf8 package was not handled in the preamble parsing. Therefore the
chinese comment in the preamble was read with a wrong encoding, and guessing
the document language did not work.
The new file CJKutf8.tex was created by copying and modifying CJK.tex, but
unfortunately it is impossible to tell git to inherit the history of CJK.tex
for the new file (search the web for git svn copy if you want to know details).
The fix is basically mechanical, the additional code for fraction like insets
with three arguments was stolen from \unitfrac. As any math package,
stackrel.sty needs a buffer parameter to switch it off.
I also added the two stackrel flavours to the toolbar.
The stmaryrd package adds support for lots of math symbols, using a font
designed to accompany the computer modern fonts. The changes in detail:
- Fix generate_symbols_list.py to work with stmaryrd.sty. It loooks like it
was automatically translated from a perl version and never used.
- Generate the new symbols in lib/symbols using generate_symbols_list.py and
add some manual adjustments
- Generate stmary10.ttf by a simple ttf export from stmary10.sfd with fontforge
- Add license info for stmary10.ttf
- Create a test file with all symbols from stmaryrd.sty. Actually it would be
nice to have this for the other fonts as well.
- The mechanics: lyx2lyx, tex2lyx, font machinery etc.
The previous output was read correctly by LyX as well, but the new version is
more similar to the files written by LyX. Also update TODO with recent file
format changes.
