In 0aead96461 it was introduced that the toolbar popup menu buttons are not
initialized until they are being used (i.e. pressed at for the first
time). As a consequence, these buttons are always enabled on start. Now
that we have the sticky button for view and update, I'm now annoyed by
this every time I start LyX.
This addresses #6543 by adding an option to prevent fonts such as Palatino and Times to automatically adapt the math font (IOW it lets you load the text font only for a bunch of fonts where this is easily possible).
Furthermore it adds an interface to select a specific math font, which is defined in latexfonts. Currently, this is only euler (the only one I know), but if there are other math-only tex fonts, they can be added easily (but note that this changes the file format).
Non-TeX math fonts are not yet supported. Eventually, unicode-math support can use the existing UI, but this is not on my agenda.
The LaTeX font now do not specify simply alternative packages or packages for OT1 encoding etc., but they refer to complete AltFonts (which are not directly accessible via the GUI). This way, alternative fonts can also have options (osf, sc etc.), and they can use all sorts of initializing methods (\usepackage, \setrmfamily etc.).
This assures that refs to existing labels are not being touched if a new label with a duplicate name is created, and the name then changed by the duplicate checker.
Branch candidate.
Fix thinko in Undo::endUndoGroup.
Do not reset undo groups in Undo::clean
The underlying problem remains: the various VC functions should not
always reload the buffer or at least should use the parameter
clearUndo=false.
Filenames embraced in <...> can occur anywhere on the line and multiple times. This fixes for me the case that graphics included via ERT were not tracked. It probably also fixes#8336.
This is a candidate for branch.
GuiTabular.cpp: a cell can either be a multicolumn or multirow, not both the same time, this is already respected by the toolbar and context menu, only the dialog allowed to set this although this was correctly never applied
should also go to branch
The stderr message "Object::disconnect: Unexpected null parameter"
often appeared when closing and opening buffers.
GuiView::on_currentWorkAreaChanged should not pass a null pointer
to Object::disconnect.
Fixes 2 issues:
1. LyX uses for a decimal alignment a multicolumn and having for a cell a multicolumn _and_ a multirow is invalid LaTeX.
2. It was impossible to unset a decimal alignment via the context menu or toolbar button.
The previous scheme of loading all possible translations and checking
whether the work is a bit too much "brute force" and causes problems
on Mac OS X (documents loaded with the wrong language).
Now there is an helper static method in Messages class that checks
whether a readable .mo file exist for the language. There should be an
API in gettext for doing that, but alas it is not possible.
As a consequence the method Language::translated() has been removed,
along with its cache.
This is the same protection used for \cite{}. Although "ulem" commands
don't strictly need this protection with \ref{} and friends, this helps
when one wants to use another package souch as "soul".
Indeed, ulem's \uline{} doesn't hyphenate words, while soul's \ul{} does,
and thus the output is much nicer.
With this patch, replacing ulem with soul is as simple as adding
\usepackage{soul}
\renewcommand{\uline}[1]{\ul{#1}}
to the preamble, without worrying about manually enclosing in \mbox the
\ref commands. In any case, the output from ulem remains unchanged.
Another possibility offered by soul is that of typesetting as
"yellow highlighted" the underlined text. This is achieved by adding
\usepackage{color,soul}
\renewcommand{\uline}[1]{\hl{#1}}
to the preamble.
The mhchem package treats the caret both as a shorthand for \uparrow or
as a superscript operator according to whether it is surrounded by
spaces or not. The \ce and \cf insets allow inserting spaces but there
is no provision for inserting a space after the caret, which is always
considered by LyX as a superscript operator. The solution here is to
insert a space after the caret if the superscript is empty or an empty
brace inset.
Mathed does not allow empty superscripts, so an empty brace has to be
inserted when working in LyX. On the other hand, when importing latex
code, an empty superscript is retained.
This has no effect whatsoever for normal latex code, as a space after
the caret is ignored. In any case, the output is only changed if an
empty brace inset is used as superscript. Specifically, the output is
changed from "^{{}}" to "^ {}".
The code in DocIterator::sanitize now follows more closely the
previous StableDocIterator::asDocIterator code. In particular, it adds
the slices one by one, since fixIfBroken will chop the cursor
otherwise.
In order to interact with native osx applications, AppleScript support is a plus.
Here is a patch that makes LyX respond to a simple command (run) and that allows to communicate with LyX as with the LyX client.
Example of use:
tell application "LyX" to run "server-get-filename" with argument ""'
returns
message:/Users/bpiwowar/newfile1.lyx, code:0
with a message and the error code
