(#8738)
For efficiency, we add a new flag to the buffer indicating when changes are
present. This flag is updated at each buffer update, and also when explicitly
requested via a dispatch result flag.
People working on the documentation do probably want to switch this on. It
gives easy access to LyX and LaTeX logos (bug 9626), and the info and menu
separator insets.
Now the minibuffer toolbar is "auto" by default. It is opened by
command-execute (M-x) and closed when the command is executed without error.
* make lyx::dispatch return a DispatchResult struct
* there is a new MINIBUFFER type of toolbar, that can be used for this use.
* remove special handling of M-x in minnibuffer; Escape can be used instead. Fix focus in this case.
* when minibuffer toolbar is "auto", make the toolbar close itself after
- a command has been executed without error
- an empty command has been executed
- the Escape key has been used

Previously, LyX did replace some words with typeset logos, and there was no
way to prvent this except putting them, in ERT (bug #4752). Now we have
special insets for these words, and standard text is left alone.
This is a follow-up of bug #8967. The implementation is self-explaining, the
only part which needs a comment is lyx2lyx: Since a 100% correct solution is
not possible, it has been decided not to switch amsmath off in the forward
conversion if no other ams command than \smash[t] and \smash[b] is used, but
to consider it a bug that older versions do not load amsmath automatically for
these commands. In the backward direction it is easy to keep the document
compilable, so just do that.
The algorithm used for breaking a paragraph in LaTeX export is changed
for avoiding spurious blank lines causing too much vertical space.
This change is tied to the introduction of a new inset (with two
different specializations) helping in either outputing LaTeX paragraph
breaks or separating environments in LyX. Both of the above goals were
previously achieved by the ---Separator--- layout and can now be
accomplished by the new inset in a more natural way. As an example,
after leaving an environment by hitting the Return key for two times,
a third return automatically inserts a parbreak inset, which is
equivalent to the old separator layout, i.e., it also introduces a
blank line in the output. If this blank line is not wanted, the
parbreak separator can be changed to a plain separator by a right
click of the mouse. Of course, an environment can still be separated
by the following one by using the Alt+P+Return shortcut (or the
corresponding menu key), but now the plain separator inset is used
instead of the old separator layout, such that no blank line occurs in
the LaTeX output.
Old documents are converted such that the LaTeX output remains unchanged.
As a result of this conversion, the old separator layout is replaced by
the new parbreak inset, which may also appear in places where the old
algorithm was introducing blank lines while the new one is not.
Note that not all blank lines were actually affecting the LaTeX output,
because a blank line is simply ignored by the TeX engine when it occurs
in the so called "vertical mode" (e.g., after an alignment environment).
The old ---Separator--- layout is now gone and old layout files using it
are also automatically converted.
Round trip conversions between old and new format should leave a document
unchanged. This means that the new behavior about paragraph breaking is
not "carried back" to the old format. Indeed, this would need introducing
special LaTeX commands in ERT that would accumulate in roundtrip
conversions, horribly cluttering the document. So, when converting a
modified document to old formats, the LaTeX output may slightly differ in
vertical spacing if the document is processed by an old version of LyX.
In other words, forward compatibility is guaranteed, but not backwards.
The frame decoration IconPalette contains already \overset etc. and \sideset has the same logic like \over- and \underset. Moreover we should keep the math panel clean and avoid the listing of many very special commands
As discussed in trac. Unformatted Text is removed, since it is too similar to
Plain text, adn nobody knows why it is needed in the standard menu. The lfun
is kept, so users can easily activate it in private ui files if needed.
This was suggested by Jean-Marc some time ago, and I simply forgot to apply.
With this change you do not see unusable menu entries like linkback on linux
anymore. I also added an entry for emf, since this will be quite useful on
windows.
As discussed on the list. No automatic contents detection is done, the user
needs to use the special paste menu instead. I used the new TempFile class
for safe temporary file handling.
The documentation would go into section 2.2 of UserGuide.lyx, but I am not
allowed to edit that document.
Somehow I overlooked that \sideset also supports nonscript arguments for
left and right. This is now fixed, although I do not like the toolbar names.
If somebody knows something better, please improve.
The toolbar image is the one Uwe attached to the bug report. Note that
\sideset works only for operators like \sum in the nucleus. LyX allows
any content, so you might get a LaTeX error. I don't know how to prevent
wrong content in the nucleus.
The advantage of having this in LyX is the intelligent file name handling
of included files. Implementation as discussed on the list, but ensure also
that an attempt to use locked files fails.
This patch implements 'move row' and 'move column' features for tabular.
The purpose is to provide a useful behavior in tabular that is
consistent with PARAGRAPH_MOVE_UP and PARAGRAPH_MOVE_DOWN so that the
user can, for example, do alt-<up> to move a row up. Alternatively,
icons for these features are also added to the table toolbar and
context menu.
If there is any selection, the feature is disabled. This is consistent
with how PARAGRAPH_MOVE_UP works in other contexts. Additionally, 'move
row' is disabled if there is a multi-row in the current or target row;
and 'move column' is disabled if there is a multi-column in the current
or target column.
'move row' moves only the left and right borders of a cell along with
the row. Similarly, 'move column' moves only the the top and bottom
borders.
Implementing similar functionality for other insets, such as arrays and
array environments, is on my TODO list.
