All comments are welcome.

I'd be glad if some of you could take the time to check it out (or fix
|
|
a bug or two if you are feeling adventurous). Let me recall that all
|
|
these fixes have been checked into the BRANCH_1_5_X branch, which you

|
|
|
* DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION
|
|

* USER INTERFACE
|
|
|
|
- LyX gives more instructive information if a character cannot be encoded
|
|
properly. Most notably, the offending character is highlighted both in
|
|
the work area and in the "View Source" pane (bug 3511).
|
|
|
|
- Initial support for shift + right-mouse-click selection (bug 2304).
|
|
|
|
- The on-screen appearance of spaces has been improved.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
the list.
|
|
|
|
- New toolbar button to creates boxes.
|
|
|

|
|
you can use "M-p Left/Right/Up/Down" keys. Note that depth-in/decrement
|
|
LFUNs are still reachable via "M-S-Left/Right" shortcuts (bug 4456).
|
|
|
|
- Improve cursor movement around lines with ending line-breaks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
|
|
|
|
- Use package wrapfig instead of floatflt for wrap figure floats, NOTE that
|
|
this might slightly change the output (cf. the file RELEASE-NOTES).
|
|
|
|
- Support to paste text containing ligatures to LyX.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* BUILD/INSTALLATION:
|
|
|
|
- The Windows version is compiled with MSVC 2008.
|
|
It is no longer necessary to install the Windows SDK and other patches,
|
|
these things are now also included in the Express edition.
|
|
|
|
- Viewers wrapper xdg-open was removed due to the problems on environments
|
|
without desktop managers. Waiting for upstream fixes.
|
|
|
|
|
