I don't know what happened with the version in master because it contained outdated sections I already removed months ago in branch. I can also not see new inf that is special in LyX 2.3dev.
Therefore I re-sync hereby with the version in branch.
As I often request: please change the doc files in branch, only new features of LyX 2.3 are master-only because there is no reason not to update and improve the docs for every LyX release.
Now only an adaptation of the Additional Features manual is needed,
but I leave this for now, since that manual apparently is undergoing
a major revision.
Based on Daniel Groger's work of five years ago, with minor changes
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel%40lists.lyx.org/msg169820.html
This extends the support for Xfig LaTeX + PDF to a more modern and
actively developed vector graphics editor. Embedded Objects manual
updated, also to include a workaround for an Inkscape 0.91 bug.
Specify non-TeX fonts that work in the source for documents that
fail with "missing characters" if compiling with "non-TeX fonts"=true.
(This does not interfere with the default output in any way.)
sidecap does not work well for some reason with the Japanese doc, so
the sidecap bool is set to false to restore compilation.
The following test now passes:
export/doc/ja/EmbeddedObjects_pdf3
Please fix at first the versions in branch since this is the working copy delivered with LyX.
Also please keep the fileformat unless you need to document a new feature that requires a new fileformat.
This led to errors when compiling with polyglossia (and non-TeX fonts).
A minimal (currently non-compiling) test sample is kept in autotests/export/
and inverted in suspiciousTests.
On Linux and Mac OS, this action brings the LyX window into focus.
Such behavior is not allowed by Windows OS so instead the color of
the taskbar entry is changed to indicate that the window has changed
in some way.
The action is hidden in the shortcuts menu because it would make
sense to assign a shortcut to it. The only way to execute shortcut
would be if the LyX window is already activated.
lyx-activate will be used (see next commit) to allow the PDF viewer
to switch to LyX after executing a reverse search.
This commit documents the feature introduced at 4803c769, which
fixed#10288.
The User Guide already has a section on closing tabs, so this fits
in well.
The default for ZOOM_OUT is -20 from a user perspective. That is,
the following are equivalent:
buffer-zoom-out -20
buffer-zoom-out
The reason for this is that the argument to ZOOM_OUT is treated the
exact same way as ZOOM_IN. The only way they differ is how the
default case is handled.
This commit also clarifies that (1) the argument may be positive or
negative and that (2) the argument is interpreted as percentage
points, not percent.
The keytests were previously enabled by default if the necessary
dependencies were found. They require a GUI and mouse so can
sometimes be annoying. Further, they are not currently reliable.
They are thus now disabled by default.
The external templates requested conversion to these formats, but there was no
converter defined, so plain text export did fail, and there are no obvious ways
to create plain text representations for the files used by these templates.
Now we output the file name as for other templates and also the graphics inset.
This fixes bug #7135.
On TeX Live 2016, Math.lyx gives an error when compiling with
pdflatex. On TeX Live 2015, Math.lyx compiles but the log gives the
following warning:
Usage of deprecated font command `\it'!
This commit amends 67e45aa3.
The external date inset was implemented as a demonstrator for external insets
in general. It was never intended for production code. Now that we have several
external insets defined we do not need the demonstrator anymore. This fixes
bugs #4398 and #9948.
Although the fix affects only a content of a LyX note, it is
still surprising to get a dialog-window demanding creation
a new document if trying to edit the subdocument.
The aim of the tutorial is to explain how to use LyX and not special LaTeX issues with \frontmatter, non-TeX fonts etc. Therefore the preamble should kept clean.
