This is a low hanging fruit, since it's already available (although
quite hidden)
Generally, output "not set" i a pref is not set rather than an empty
string.
With this commit, info insets leave the dark backstage room of an opaque
and quite hidden dev-only feature and come frontstage.
In the UI, they present themselves as "Fields" since this is what people
know from word processors. Other user-related fields that could be
implemented next: time, user name (I plan to do that for 2.4).
Since this supersedes date-insert, I removed Insert > Date from
the menu and propose to ditch date-insert and the corresponding rc.
The lyx2lyx reversion routine has lots of room for improvement and
attractive tasks for pythons (file timestamp, switch of localization).
Please feel invited!
This is a file format change.
The checkProg() function was separating a command from its parameters
by splitting at the first space. This was a problem if the command
was specified with a full path containing spaces. Now the checkProg()
function separates a command from the parameters by splitting at the
first non-quoted space. So, it suffices quoting a path to solve the
issue.
This effectively enables linebreaks, multipars and layout changes in
non-fixed width (i.e., standard) table columns.
Fixes: #6577
TODO: metrics are wrong (too wide) on screen with linebreaks.
Each source file is to be copied to the test directory
Created files are to be compared to the corresponding expected file (if it is not set to "undef")
This is an extra command used for sidenote citations. Since we do not
provide \cite with natbib (which tufte uses) as a choice, we use the
new AddToCiteEngine feature to add it.
File format change.
Fixes: #11150
Now layout files and modules can extend the cite engines or completely
overwrite them, and modify the cite formats.
Any CiteEngine definition in a layout/module will completely overwrite
those by cite engine files.
AddToCiteEngine will extend them (add if they do not exist yet).
Any CiteFormat definition in a layout will be preferred to those in cite
engines. CiteFormat definitions that are not touched by the former are
still active, though (so, as opposed to CiteEngine, a CiteFormat does
not completely overwrite those by the engine files).
Layout format change.
LyX on Mac uses a user directory with version suffix. On change of the version suffix the existence of the directories with previous versions is checked and the latest one is used for a copy on first configure run. For 2.4 the candidate list starts with 2.3 now as it should.
It is now possible in the float settings (doc dialog) to specify a global
(inner) alignment for floats, and in the float settings, this can be
overridden (just as with float placement)
Fixes: #8665
File format change.
"Benutzerdefiniert" means "user defined", which is not what "custom"
means here (custom insets/text styles are usually not user defined,
but provided by a class/module).
This revives a ten year old idea (and patch) by Dov.
You can now mark in the character dialog text and exclude it from spell
checking.
Fixes: #1042
File format change
Remaining issue: The instant spell checking marks are not immediately
removed, but only after some editing.
Combining accent charactrs were not supported at the time the Russian
documentation was written. Eventual display problems with some GUI
fonts are still less distracting than ERT.
I'm open to putting this elsewhere on the toolbar, or even on a
different toolbar. Also, we need decent icons. These ones are not
intended seriously but were just borrowed for testing purposes.
Anyone have good ideas about icons?
We have a couple of converters (using Sweave and knitr to "tangle"
an intermediate file) that are used for exporting code chunks
contained in a .lyx file. Since the code is just exported to a text
file and is not executed, needauth is not necessary.
A Note inset contained two example files. The linguistics example
file caused terminal messages like
step: Counter does not exist: examplei
An alternative to removing the example file would be to add the
module, but it is not clear we want example files in the merged
file anyway.
Otherwise utf8 inputenc chokes.
It is also possible to enter those accented chars directly, but this
results in display problems in the workarea (the line is shifted downwards).
The objective is to identify common operations and place them
in functions in order to improve the readability and correctness of the code.
is_document_option(document, option):
Find if _option_ is a document option (\\options in the header).
insert_document_option(document, option):
Insert _option_ as a document option.
remove_document_option(document, option):
Remove _option_ as a document option.
A feature can now be required only for specific input or font encodings:
- <feature>=enc1;enc2... Require the feature <feature> only if the
character is used in one if the specified font
or input encodings.
- <feature>!=enc1;enc2... Require the feature <feature> only if the
character is used in a font or input encoding
that is not among the specified.
The fixes are simple and on line with the changes made during
the 2.3 development. It was an oversight to leave them out.
With this commit all the python scripts should be supported by
python 2 and 3.
Following a request by Günter, we consider the document fonts (only rm
for now) when selecting an appropriate font encoding.
See #9741
The new default font encoding setting "auto" does
* consider the font encoding needed by the language(s), which can now
have fallback alternatives
* Consider which font encoding is provided by the document font
Thus, cm now will result in OT1 fontenc, if the language can deal with
that.
The font_enc pref is ditched: it is no longer needed.
The automatism is still very basic and is subject to extension.
File format and prefs format change.
