What's new
==========
** Updates:
***********
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
- Updated Arabic, German, Russian and Slovakian user interface localization.
- It possible to anonymize document's content for bug submissions
via buffer-anonymize lfun (bug 7259).
- Support rotation of multi-page tables via (pdf)lscape (bug 9194).
- Added LFUN_MASTER_BUFFER_EXPORT, which exports the master buffer, along
the lines of LFUN_MASTER_BUFFER_VIEW (bug 11118).
- Needauth is not needed for exporting R code (only when executing the code).
- Center longtable explicitly for compatibility with some packages (bug 10690).
- Fix problems with default conversion script for graphics (part of bug 11186).
* TEX2LYX IMPROVEMENTS
- Add support for biblatex.
- Add support for chapterbib.
- Add support for \includeonly.
- Add support for beamer overlay arguments (bug 11068).
- 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
- Let caret height depend on character size in math editor.
- 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).
- Allow LFUN_UNICODE_INSERT to take multiple arguments (bug 11084).
- Added C-M-i as a shortcut for LFUN_INSET_SETTINGS (bug 7662).
* DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION
* BUILD/INSTALLATION
- Add support for v.2 of the enchant spell checker (bug 10986).
- Support new hunspell C++ ABI if LyX is built against hunspell >= 1.5
(bug 10547).
- Fix spurious warning when compiling with Qt 5.10.
