The old text was incorrect and came from the 2.0 release. LyX works fine if
the default python interpreter is python 3, as long as python 2 is available
as well.
Building LyX does also work with python 3, but since I did not check all
special build steps with both cmake and autotools, I kept a note about
possible problems.
This is used when scaling graphics previews. It is also used on a rare occasion
to scale instant previews when the user's configuration mixes low-dpi and
high-dpi monitors (#10114).
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.
With this change, it becomes possible to run the following commands:
inset-forall Separator:latexpar char-delete-forward
inset-forall Separator:parbreak inset-modify separator plain
The first one deletes all latexpar separators. The second one turns parbreak
separators into plain separators. This is safe, flexible, and avoids adding a
new LFUN.
We ensure that configure.py is called by python2, regardless whether 'python'
is python 2 or 3. Therefore we can simply call TeXFiles.py with the currently
running interpreter. This fixes configuration on systems where 'python' is
python 3.
Lyx files converted from 2.1 to 2.2 contain parbeak and latexpar separators that
would not appear if the lyx file was written in 2.2 from scratch. The script
removes latexpar separators and transforms parbreak separators into plain
separators. Then it displays a diff of the resulting pdf files (requires
diffpdf) for manual control. All lyx files shipped with lyx should be updated in
this way. See #10068.
example usage:
cd lib/doc
../development/tools/separator-convert.sh Math.lyx
The difference has been validated with diffpdf.
The following could not be tested and were left unchanged:
docbook_article.lyx
lilypond.lyx
linguistics.lyx
springer/sv*.lyx
de/linguistics.lyx
es/linguistics.lyx
ja/FeynmanDiagrams.lyx
ja/lilypond.lyx
ja/beamer.lyx
ja/xypic.lyx
The following is the script that I used (in lib/examples):
LYX=../../build/src/lyx
$LYX -E pdf2 $1.old.pdf $1
sed -i "s/^\\\\begin_inset Separator parbreak$/\\\\begin_inset Separator plain/" $1
sed -i "/^\\\\begin_inset Separator latexpar$/ { N; d; }" $1
$LYX -e lyx $1
$LYX -E pdf2 $1.pdf $1
diffpdf $1.old.pdf $1.pdf
The difference has been validated with diffpdf.
The following could not be tested and were left unchanged:
AEA.lyx
IJMPC.lyx
ja_beamer-conference-ornate-20min.lyx
The following is the script that I used (in lib/templates):
LYX=../../build/src/lyx
$LYX -E pdf2 $1.old.pdf $1
sed -i "s/^\\\\begin_inset Separator parbreak$/\\\\begin_inset Separator plain/" $1
sed -i "/^\\\\begin_inset Separator latexpar$/ { N; d; }" $1
$LYX -e lyx $1
$LYX -E pdf2 $1.pdf $1
diffpdf $1.old.pdf $1.pdf
This is what the polib version does already. If a translation is marked
fuzzy then it is not used, so if the other file contains a non-fuzzy
translation we do not throw away useful information if we overtake it.
If the -o option is given, we may overwrite existing translations with
translations from the other .po file. In this case, we have to delete or set
the fuzzy flag accoring to the updated translation.
2.1.x allows some document settings to have negative values where
2.2.0rc1 does not (because of the bug fix at 9e166088). If a user of
2.2.0rc1 opens a document from 2.1.x that contains one such negative
value, it will appear as though no change to the document settings
can be saved because 2.2.0rc1 treats the document settings as
invalid immediately on opening the dialog. Further, unless the user
manually goes through each tab they will not see the red text next
to the input that is now considered invalid. This could lead to
confusion for users. One example of such confusion is [1].
The following settings now allow negative values, which is
consistent with 2.1.x. Negative values in these settings do not lead
to LaTeX errors:
- Text Layout tab: the two line edits enabled with "Custom"
- Page Margins tab: all eight line edits
The following settings are not changed by this commit, so they now
(with 2.2.0) do not allow negative values that 2.1.x allowed. This
change makes sense because negative values lead to LaTeX errors in
these cases:
- Page Layout tab: the "Height" and "Width" line edits, which are
enabled when "Custom" is selected
