This file describes what has been done in the preparation of LyX 1.6.3
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_6_X branch, which you
can get with the command
svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_6_X lyx-1.6.x

What's new
==========
** Updates:
***********
* DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION
- New Indonesian localization of the user interface.
- New Indonesian translation of the Introduction manual.
- New French translation of LyX's list of defined shortcuts.
- Updated German, Czech, Italian, and Polish localization of the user
interface.
- Updated English Extended manual.
- Updated German and Spanish User's Guide manual.
- Updated English, French, German, and Spanish Introduction manual.
- Updated Spanish Shortcuts list.
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
- Tex2lyx is now able to read files in all latex supported encodings and
transform them into the proper unicode-based format introduced in 1.5.0.
This paves the way for many other improvements in LaTeX->LyX translation
(bugs 3035, 4379, 4917).
- Quotes in InsetListings are now plain quotes, rather than InsetQuote
entries (bug 5782).
- Improved re-import from LaTeX of documents containing unadorned unicode
symbols in math.
* USER INTERFACE
- Store the command buffer history in the session file and show it in
a pop-up list in the command buffer.
- Added locking capabilities for SVN version control support.
Read Extended manual for details.
- Add Jump-back navigation button to the standard toolbar (bug 898).
- Add Open/Close items to context menu of collapsable insets.
- LFUN_NEXT_BUFFER (Ctrl-PgUp) and LFUN_PREV_BUFFER (Ctrl-PgDn) now skip
documents that are loaded but not displayed in a window. Such documents
are also shown in a sub-menu of the Document menu. (Bug 5872)
- Added tooltips for citation insets.
* WINDOWS INSTALLER
* BUILD
** Bug fixes:
*************
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
- Fix reading of document when a customizable inset name contains a
space.
- Fix LaTeX export of an isolated Japanese character when using
ISO-2022-JP encoding (bug 5802).
- Fix encoding failure after Listing insets in utf-8 documents (bug 5783).
- Fix conversion of the lilypond external inset with lilypond >= 2.11.x
(bug 5834).
- Fix LaTeX import when the AMS math package is used (bug 5846).
- Correct the LaTeX output of the GREEK ANO TELEIA symbol (part of
bug 5239).
- Disable page size, orientation and margin settings with beamer and
powerdot, since those values are hardcoded by the class. Thus, a
geometry option clash is avoided (bug 5863).
- Perform extra LaTeX run when requested by the French lettre class
(bug 5818).
- Support LATIN CAPITAL LETTER SHARP S. Note that only selected fonts
provide this character. Others output <SS>.
* USER INTERFACE
- Validate the input of Preferences>Output>Date Format and the argument
of the date-insert function. This fixes a crash on Windows with invalid/
unsupported date specifiers (bug 5827).
- Fix crash when issuing the command "buffer-switch <buffer>" and there
is no buffer called <buffer>.
- Fix crash in shortcut editor: Pressing delete again after deleting
a key binding causes segfault.
- After reloading a child document, correctly re-assign the master
(bug 5873).
- Adjust the color of deletions slightly when using change tracking. It
is now easier to distinguish between added and deleted text (bug 5629).
- Fix the bug that the view source window remained disabled forever when
the window got disabled while the autoUpdate checkbox was unchecked.
- Fix the loss of clipboard contents on exit (bug 5769).
- Fix the annoying behaviour that the cursor got hidden by auto-toggling
of the math or table toolbar(s) (bug 4733).
- Fix the LFUN_SCREEN_RECENTER (bug 5526).
- Improve the selection of table cells with the keyboard (bug 1802).
- Correct cursor movement in cases where the cursor jumped to a different
paragraph while leaving a double space or an empty paragraph (bug 5088).
- Hide the close buffer button even when the tabbar is hidden (bug 5357).
- Prevent warning when opening the document settings or preferences
dialogs (bug 5799).
- Do not close the math delimiters dialog when selecting a delimiter
without "match" being chosen (bug 5789).
- Ensure that in various dialogs the OK button is the default when the
Cancel and/or the Apply buttons are enabled too (bugs 4441, 5695).
- Do not create a new document when cancel is pressed in the "new from
template" dialog (bug 5848).
- Close the correct document when the close tab button is pressed while
the cursor is in another tabgroup (with split-screen) (bug 5819).
- Correctly restore documents that are assigned to a master.
- Accidentally adding more than two rows for cases environments in
formulas is no longer possible (bug 4141).
- Enable the possibility to specify icons for commands with backspaces.
- Disable the Edit->Math submenu when not in math (bug 4218).
- Fix display of release date in Help>About for development builds.
- Remove empty checkbox for menu entries like Edit>Math>Delete row
(which were only visible with some themes).
- Multicolumn cell alignment can now be changed via toolbar (bug 5709).
- Fix some dialog layouts when using Qt 4.2.
- Fix some key accelerators in the Preferences dialog.
- Remove empty paragraphs and superfluous spaces after LFUN_SCREEN_UP
and LFUN_SCREEN_DOWN (bug 5434).

which all children are disabled.
- Fix the enabling and disabling of the version control submenu.
- Do not reload the document after pressing cancel in the version
control user interface.
- Remove black box around the document which is visible with Qt4.5.
- Do not sort the colors in the preferences dialog case-sensitively
(bug 4673).
- Add Listings Settings to the Edit menu.
- Add child-exclusive branches to the Insert>Branch submenu (bug 5851).
- Correct placement of the cursor in description styles (bug 4067).
- Prevent the document from scrolling to the cursor when the view is
resized (e.g. when the tabbar is toggled) (part of bug 4174).
- Fix some icons/bitmaps not being loaded from external source (bug 5812).
* DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION
