the minibuffer. As the comments explain, this leaves a different
bug, but (a) it isn't a crash and (b) it probably won't affect
many users, if *any* users.

* [QTBUG-34132] QFileDialog does no longer instantiate widgets if a
native dialog will be used instead. Therefore some accessors
which previously returned unused objects will now return null.
As before, you can set the DontUseNativeDialog option to ensure
that widgets will be created and used instead.
Seemingly, Qt uses native dialogs by default starting from version 5.2.0.
When trying to open a file dialog, LyX segfaults in release mode, whereas
Qt asserts in debug mode:
ASSERT failure in QList<T>::at: "index out of range",
file /usr/local/qt/5.2.0/include/QtCore/qlist.h, line 472
This is avoided by explicitly setting the DontUseNativeDialog option
in the code path selected by *not* setting USE_NATIVE_FILEDIALOG.
This option was introduced in Qt 4.5, which is the minimum required
for compiling LyX. So, it is not protected by a preprocessor macro.
LFUN_BUFFER_SAVE_AS has an optional argument where an initial format can be preset
This fixes:
* The remainder of bug #3402: Open Export As dialog when attempting to export to read-only directories
* Bug #8886: 'export as' should default to the default document output format
It is always a bad idea to compare a localized string. I think the whole method Formats::getFormatFromPrettyName (which is now unused) should be ditched. This is bound to fail.
In [19024f72\lyxgit] this line was removed. Later this caused that floats were converted to strings using ','s instead of '.'s. Readding this line fixes this.
Get the default language by a mix of QLocale and LyXRC::gui_language
Known limitations:
* encoding is supposed to be UTF-8 (the charset parameter is checked);
* context is not handled (implemented differently in LyX);
* plural forms not implemented (not used for now in LyX);.
* tThe byte endianness of the machine on which the .mo file have been
built is expected to be the same as the one of the machine where this
code is run.
(unless it's already there, in which case it should move to the end of the next paragraph).
Change the preference setting name (mac_like_word_movement to mac_like_cursor_movement)
to better reflect its function.
Patch and description from Bennett Helm
- InsetBox.cpp:
a framebox without inner box and without a width is \fbox
a framebox with inner box is also \fbox
a framebox without inner box and with width is \framebox
- GuiBox.cpp: the width checkbox must be checked if there is width
- this was forgotten to commit;
(without this we would get invalid LaTeX code when changing in the box dialog a makebox without a width to a minipage and press apply - a makebox required to specify a width, at least an invisible one like "0cm")
* InsetBox and GuiBox: Use proper empty length instead of the broken -9.99col% trick
* some slight changes to the logic of GuiBox to make sure that values are set as needed.
* lengthToWidget(): handle properly the empty length case. All the other related Qt helpers did it already, it was probably an oversight. Also set the default_unit parameter as optional (not needed in this patch actually, but I got carried away :)
* allow generating LaTeX code for an empty length, since some broken code does that.
If there is a new toolbar, it will not be restored by Qt and we need to
initialize it ourselves. However, it is not so easy to find out which
toolbars are restored by Qt and which are not. For this, the setVisible
function of GuiToolbar is 'misused'. If the visibility is set, the toolbar
must have been restored by Qt and we should leave it alone.
LyX uses QTemporaryFile to create a unique temporary directory. This
temporary directory will consist of two random characters and the process
identifier (PID).
Currently, the two random characters are often the same because Qt's
random generator was not seeded. If there are a lot of lyx temporary
directories accumulated, the chance of failing to find a unique temporary
directory is (N/100)%.
The temporary directories can be left behind if either LyX crashes, or
when a file in the temporary directory is opened in another viewer when
LyX closes. This can be a pdf that is viewed in a reader that disallows
the file to be removed while viewing it.
The default citation capability of LaTeX is not a true numerical
citation engine, rather it uses a mixture of labels/numbers. Thus
we now distinguish them: "numerical" always increments the bibitem
counter and uses its value as a numerical citation label, while
"default" only uses the bibitem counter when no label is provided.
LyX file format incremented to 471.
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.
Reason for this 'cleanup' is the strange "optional = false" lines at the
end of the "case md_item" and "case md_subitem". Then, it is nicer to
directly use the value of the switch to be the running variable and to use
this to determine whether an item is optional and whether we should quit.
The panels in GuiDocument and GuiPrefs are stored in a map. The keys are
the translated descriptions of these panels. Whenever someone changes the
gui language and reopens the Document Settings pane, LyX asserted because
it could not find the "Child Documents" pane.
In commit bd9e8fecd the currentIndex of the FindAndReplaceAdv Pane was
changed from 0 to 1. Since then LyX crashed when requesting the pane or
when changing LyX preferences.
This patch reverts this, although it is not clear why it would crash
otherwise. It is still committed like this, because LyX is unusable
without.
View Source pane layout now automatically switches between horizontal
and vertical design when docked in vertical or horizontal way.
Original idea and patch from Edwin.

Note: the long standing-fight with too bulky minimal QTextEdit size
is now solved via ViewSourceUi.sizePolicy=Ignored.
