This file describes what has been done in the preparation of LyX 2.3.2.
All comments are welcome.
We try to group things by topic and in decreasing order of importance.
Please feel free to re-arrange if that seems like a good idea.
What's new
==========
** Updates:
***********
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
- It possible to anonymize document's content for bug submissions
via buffer-anonymize lfun (bug 7259).
* TEX2LYX IMPROVEMENTS
- Add support for biblatex.
- Add support for beamer overlay arguments (bug 11068).
- Add support for chapterbib.
- Add support for \includeonly.
- Update tex2lyx quotation marks detection:
* Consider new quote styles of LyX 2.3.
* Consider changed quote styles in LYX 2.3.
* Try to be a bit smarter with ambiguous quotation marks,
depending on the main quote style and the local context.
- Consider options passed via \PassOptionsToPackage.
- Add support for URW Classico, MinionPro and the new Libertine fonts.
- Add support for \lstinputlisting and \inputminted.
- Add support for the \t*{} (bottomtiebar) macro of TIPA.
- Implement better parsing of some command options (via "literate"
function of some insets) (bug 9563).
- Add support for alignment pseudo-environments as used inside floats
(bug 7857).
* USER INTERFACE
- Overhaul the document painting mechanism. Now the screen is updated
asyncronously (as all normal applications do), which makes LyX
snappier, especially on repeated events. As an added bonus, subpixel
aliasing is honored in the work area.
- Use native file dialogs on all platforms by default. It is now
possible to switch to LyX custom dialogs (which have extra shortcuts
to relevant directories) by setting the preference
\use_native_filedialog true
- Handle properly top/bottom of inset with mac-like cursor movement
(bug 10701).
- Respect the last setting of the 'literal' checkbox when adding citations
via the LyX server (e.g., from JabRef).
- Allow unification of graphic groups inside marked block via context
menu.
- Cosmetic polishment of the "Math Options" pane of Document Settings
(bug 10777).
- UI improvements in the graphics dialog (bug 10771).
- Set tab stop in preamble editor to four characters.
- Provide simple search functionality in preamble (bug 11099).
- Change Settings -> Local Layout to Fixed-width Font and Nowrap (bug 10992).
* DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION
* BUILD/INSTALLATION
- Support new hunspell C++ ABI if LyX is built against hunspell >= 1.5
(bug 10547).
** Bug fixes:
*************
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
- Fix language settings and line spacing in InPreamble-titles
(bug 9332, 1049).
- Respect 'literal' setting when calculating longest bibitem (bug 10817).
- Do not embrace numbers in \beginL ... \endL with polyglossia in Right-
to-Left languages, since bidi handles the numbers automatically.
- Fix polyglossia language switches for Arabic (bug 11057).
- Set correct path to (biblatex) bibliography databases that are entered
relative to child documents (bug 11105).
- Load hyperref with a suitable driver (bug 6418).

with other citation type (bug 10829).

for graphics (bug 11048).

dialog (bug 11088).
