This code has issues and there is no evidence that it improves performance. Remove LyXRC variable \use_pixmap_cache and update rc format to 29. Now the global pixmap cache is only used by GuiCompleter. Therefore there is no need to reset it when fonts change.

!!Interface changes

|
|
|
- It is now possible to cancel background export processes. A menu entry
|
|
to do so will appear on the Document menu when such a process is underway.
|
|
The LFUN for this is export-cancel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
!!Documents compilation process and images conversion

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
!!!The following pref variables are obsoleted in 2.4:
|
|
|
|
* \font_encoding
|
|
The font encoding is now automatically set depending on the document
|
|
fonts and languages.
|
|
|
|
* \use_qimage
|
|
This is no longer necessary due to the rewrite of the painter.
|
|
|
|
* \use_pixmap_cacheqimage
|
|
There is no evidence that this painting mode was useful anymore.
|
|
|
|
* \date_insert_format
|
|
The function date-insert has been removed and superseded by info-insert date.
|
|
The latter does not need a pref value anymore.
|
|
|
|

!!Changes with respect to external programs and libraries in 2.4:
|
|
|
|
* The Qt5 libraries are now used by default. In order to link against
|
|
Qt4 the configure option --disable-qt5 has to be used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
!!Known issues in version 2.4.0
|
|
|
|
* See http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome
|
|
|
|
|
|
!!Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 2.4.x
|
|
|
|
* Autotools monolithic build option for building LyX binaries was removed,
|
|
for compilation speedup use parallel building on multiple cores instead.
|
|
|
|
!! If upgrading from a LyX version before 2.3.0
|
|
|
|
* Please additionally see the release notes from the versions in-between:
|
|
https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/ReleaseNotes
|
|
|
|
* Several ttf fonts (esint10.ttf, stmary10.ttf, wasy10.ttf) were changed
|
|
to reflect the fact that newer Qt libraries do not support displaying certain
|
|
codepoints anymore (bug #8493, #10161).
|
|
Distribution packagers need to repack those font files in case they are
|
|
delivering the fonts as a separated package dependent from core LyX.
