1 LyX file-format changes
2 -----------------------
4 2006-06-10 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
6 * format incremented to 247. The Grand Font Interface Rewrite.
7 (1) Split font selection to rm, sf, tt:
8 \fontscheme -> \font_roman, \font_sans, \font_typewriter
10 \fontscheme \font_roman \font_sans \font_typewriter
11 default default default default
13 times times default default
14 palatino palatino default default
15 helvet default helvet default
16 avant default avant default
17 newcent newcent default default
18 bookman bookman default default
19 pslatex times (or \usepackage{pslatex})
21 \font_roman: cmr (-> \renewcommand{\rmdefault}{cmr}),
22 lmodern, charter, utopia, ccfonts, chancery, beraserif
23 (-> \usepackage{<name>})
24 \font_sans: cmss, lmss, cmbr
25 (-> \renewcommand{\sfdefault}{<name>})
26 berasans (-> \usepackage{<name>})
27 \font_typewriter: cmtt, lmtt, cmtl,
28 (-> \renewcommand{\sfdefault}{<name>})
29 courier, luximono, beramono
30 (-> \usepackage{<name>})
31 (2) New param \font_default_family (rmdefault, sfdefault, ttdefault)
32 (3) New param \font_sc (true, false).
33 (4) New param \font_osf (true, false).
34 (5) New param \font_sf_scale (float)
35 (6) New param \font_tt_scale (float)
36 Support for the following fonts has been added:
37 bera, ccfonts, chancery, charter, cmbright, computer modern (explicitely),
38 courier, lmodern, luximono, utopia.
39 Support for the following font has been removed:
40 pslatex (it's superseded by mathptmx (times)).
42 2006-06-03 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
44 * format incremented to 246. The framed.sty package is
45 now supported with note types framed and shaded.
47 2005-10-12 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
49 * format incremented to 245. The \quotes_times parameter
52 2005-09-24 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
54 * format incremented to 244. Rename '\InsetSpace \,'
55 to '\InsetSpace \thinspace{}', because the comma was
56 not parsed by lyxlex, and '\InsetSpace \space' to
57 '\InsetSpace \space{}' in favour of consistency.
59 2005-07-18 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
61 * format incremented to 243.
63 * this change only affects the preamble, the paperpackage
64 option was removed and papersize is changed to default.
66 2005-06-21 Jean-Marc Lasgouttes <lasgouttes@lyx.org>
68 * format incremented to 242. There is no file format per
69 se, but the "frenchb" language has been removed from lib/language
70 and has to be translated to "french" by lyx2lyx.
72 2005-02-03 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
74 * format incremented to 241.
76 All following changes apply only to text in ERT insets. The
77 rationale is that text in ERT is simply ASCII text, and nothing more.
79 * paragraph breaks are now a single newline in latex and not a
80 paragraph break anymore (bug 698).
81 * \newline is not allowed anymore, because it is redundant (see above)
82 * layouts other than Standard, paragraph parameters and font changes
83 are not allowed anymore. They never made sense and were ignored for
84 latex output, but now they can't be read or set anymore (bug 922).
87 2005-01-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmüller@gmx.de>
89 * format incremented to 240.
91 \output_changes {true|false}
92 (should the change tracking marks be visible in the output or not?)
93 * lyx2lyx should just delete the param in 239.
95 2005-01-06 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
97 * format incremented to 239.
98 * the paragraph parameters are displayed in their own line. This
99 change is consistent with the insets behaviour, and corresponds
100 to a more uniform treatment of the paragraphs since some of them
101 had already their own line.
103 An example of a single paragraph follows:
105 \begin_layout Standard
106 \paragraph_spacing single
112 2004-12-03 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
114 * format incremented to 238.
115 * The compatibility code to read old latex accents from 0.12.x in
116 InsetLatexAccent::checkContents has been removed.
117 The following translations are done:
119 "\i \xy" -> "\i \x{y}"
120 "\i \x y" -> "\i \x{y}"
121 "\i \x\i" -> "\i \x{\i}"
122 "\i \x\j" -> "\i \x{\j}"
123 x is a latex accent command, y the base character. \, i and j are
125 lyx did these changes already from 0.12.x -> 215, but not lyx2lyx,
126 so formats 215 - 237 can have both versions.
129 2004-10-10 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
131 * format incremented to 237.
132 * In the header, the following statments use now booleans values,
138 2004-08-15 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
140 * format incremented to 236.
147 * The options for \papersize are changed:
150 * All whitespaces are removed at the end of lines, when
151 not necessary. As an example we have all the lines in the header that
152 do not belong to the preamble.
154 2004-07-01 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
156 * format incremented to 235.
157 * \paperpackage had an off-by-one error. Translation table:
159 234: a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
160 235: none a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
162 The "widemarginsa4" setting of 235 has no equivalent in 234.
164 2004-05-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
166 * format incremented to 234.
167 * the citation engine is specified explicitly rather than being
168 deduced from 3 bools.
171 \use_numerical_citations 0 -> \cite_engine <style>
174 where <style> is one of "basic", "natbib_authoryear",
175 "natbib_numerical" or "jurabib".
177 2004-04-29 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
179 * format incremented to 233.
180 * insetgraphics does not allow filenames without extension anymore.
181 The complete filename has to be given.
183 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
185 * format incremented to 232.
187 * Support for bibtopic (sectioned bibliographies).
188 - bufferparam \use_bibtopic [1|0]
189 - the bibtex inset has a second argument for bibtopic's
190 btPrint{Cited|NotCited|All} command:
192 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>]{<database>}
194 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>][<btPrintX>]{<database>}
195 Forwards, there's nothing to be done. Backwards, \usepackage[dot]{bibtopic}
196 has to be inserted to the preamble. Instead of the bibtex inset, the LaTeX
197 \bibliographystyle{<style>}
198 \begin{btSect}{<database>}
203 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
205 * format incremented to 231.
207 * Support for sidewaysfigure/sidewaystable (rotating package).
208 insetfloat has now a param \sideways [true|false] (default is false).
209 The param should be erased on downwards conversion, if it was true,
210 the inset should be replaced by
211 \begin{sidewaysfigure} <content> \end{sidewaysfigure}
213 \begin{sidewaystable} <content> \end{sidewaystable}
216 2004-02-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
218 * format incremented to 230.
220 * Support for a second optional argument in insetcommand.
221 currently, citation uses this to support natbibs second
222 optional argument \cite[before][after]{key}.
223 I think there's nothing to convert upwards. Downwards, the
224 commands with 2 optional args need to be converted to ERT.
226 * Support for jurabib (param \use_jurabib [1|0], default is 0).
227 When converting downwards, \usepackage{jurabib} has to be added
228 to the preamble and, if babel is used, \usepackage{babel} before
229 (jurabib fails if babel is called afterwards). If the natbib commands
230 are used together with jurabib, they have to be converted to ERT too.
232 2003-12-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
234 * format incremented to 229.
235 * Minipages cannot be read anymore. All minipage insets will
236 be converted to frameless box insets between 228->229.
238 2003-12-15 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
240 * format incremented to 228.
241 * Change the output of all insets derived from InsetCollapsable
242 except for InsetERT (which has a similar output already), changing lines
243 "collapsed true" -> "status collapsed"
244 "collapsed false" -> "status open".
245 * Change the output of InsetERT, changing lines
246 "status Collapsed" -> "status collapsed"
247 "status Open" -> "status open".
248 "status Inlined" -> "status inlined".
250 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
252 * format NOT incremented.
253 * add a 'draft' option to InsetExternal.
255 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
257 * format incremented to 227.
258 * Change the output of InsetBox:
259 \begin_inset Boxed -> \begin_inset Box Boxed
260 \begin_inset Doublebox -> \begin_inset Box Doublebox
261 \begin_inset Frameless -> \begin_inset Box Frameless
262 \begin_inset ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box ovalbox
263 \begin_inset Ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box Ovalbox
264 \begin_inset Shadowbox -> \begin_inset Box Shadowbox
266 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
268 * format incremented to 226.
269 * Change the output of InsetNote:
270 \begin_inset Note -> \begin_inset Note Note
271 \begin_inset Comment -> \begin_inset Note Comment
272 \begin_inset Greyedout -> \begin_inset Note Greyedout
274 2003-11-28 André Pönitz
276 * Remove space_above/space_below from Paragraph.
277 This is now handled by InsetVSpace.
279 2003-10-07 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
281 * Add transformations to InsetExternal
283 boundingBox 0 0 20 20 the dimensions of the B.B..
284 Output if the B.B. is not empty.
285 clip clip the image to the B.B.
287 extra LaTeX "draft" 'extra' data passed to the primary
288 command for this output format.
289 (Possible formats LaTeX, PDFLaTeX,
290 LinuxDoc, DocBook, Ascii.)
291 The string can contain spaces and so
293 rotateAngle 30 Rotation of the data.
294 Output for non-zero rotation only.
295 rotateOrigin bottomleft Rotation origin.
296 Output for non-zero rotation and
297 non-default origin (center) only.
299 width 2cm Output only if the image is resized.
303 2003-10-07 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
305 * Added box inset. File format:
307 \begin_inset Ovalbox Boxed/Frameless/ovalbox/Ovalbox
312 inner_pos "b" t/c/b/s
314 width "100col%" unit+width-string
315 special "none" none/height/depth
317 height "1in" unit+width-string
318 height_special "totalheight" none/height/depth
320 collapsed false true/false
322 \begin_layout Standard
329 This box (Frameless, has_inner_box=1, use_parbox=0) replaces
330 the pre-existing Minipage inset. Parameters translate as follows:
331 position 0/1/2 -> t/c/b
332 inner_position 0/1/2/3 -> inner_pos c/t/b/s
337 2003-08-19 Michael Schmitt <michael.schmitt@teststep.org>
339 * attribute valignment="center" is replaced by valignment="middle"
340 for tabular columns and cells
342 2003-08-17 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
344 * Added branch inset. File format:
346 branch definition in the header:
352 \begin_inset Branch <branchname>
353 collapsed false true/false
355 \begin_layout Standard
362 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
364 * \the_end is replaced with \end_document
366 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
368 * \layout is replaced with \begin_layout
370 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@fep.up.pt>
374 * All layouts finish now with \end_layout
376 2003-06-04 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
380 * the storage of the external inset has been changed from
382 \begin_inset External XFig,"file.fig",""
388 \begin_inset External
391 display <display_type>
396 throwing away the final arg (here "", more generally "<string>") that holds
397 the parameters variable.
398 Variables are output if present (filename) or different from the default
399 values (display, lyxscale).
401 Moreover, the RasterImage template has been scrapped. All RasterImage
402 external insets are now converted to Graphics insets.
404 2003-05-20 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
406 * Added new space insets:
407 \SpecialChar ~ is now \InsetSpace ~
408 ERT: "\ " could be converted to InsetSpace \<space>
409 ERT: "\," could be converted to InsetSpace \,
411 2003-04-24 André Pönitz <poenitz@gmx.net>
413 * Added eqref support:
414 \begin_inset LatexCommand \eqref{label}
416 2003-03-14 Dekel Tsur
418 * Format bumped to 223.
420 2003-03-12 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
422 * Added \\end_header to signify the end of the header in a
425 * use_amsmath is now a tristate {0 = never, 1 = auto, 2 = always}
427 2003-02-10 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
431 Added \\tracking_changes 0|1 to the header.
433 Added \\author to the header. This can be present multiple
434 times, and is of the form :
436 \\author "Real Name" email@address.com
438 Added \\change_deleted, \\change_inserted. Each of these does not
439 span a paragraph, and is delimited by "\\change_unchanged\n". Both are
442 \\change_inserted author time
444 where author is an integer ID reference into the author list in
445 the header, and time is time_t.
447 2002-10-24 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
449 * insetgraphicsParams.h (scale): is now a float, not an unsigned int.
451 2002-08-22 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
453 New graphics dialog. With the removal of buttons in the dialog, also
454 keywords in the graphics inset went. The following keywords do not
464 Only non-default values are saved to the lyx files. The defaults of the remaining
474 BoundingBox <from file>
477 rotateOrigin centerBaseline
479 subcaptionText <empty>
482 The remaining keywords have sufficient overlap with the old ones for a
483 smooth reading of the 1.2.x inset keywords in most common cases.
485 Compatibility is certainly broken for the old lyxwidth/lyxheight keywords.
486 They don't exist anymore and we can't translate them into a scaling value, while
487 we're reading the graphics inset. The old lyxwidth/lyxheight keyword and its
488 argument is ignored and lost.
490 Only few compatibility issues are left for lyx2lyx:
492 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
493 old-token new-token remove
494 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
495 size_kind original / size_type 0 scale 100 width <val>
499 size_kind width_height / size_type 1 - scale <val>
501 lyxsize_kind original / lyxsize_type 0 lyxscale 100 lyxscale <val>
502 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
503 [replace old-token by new-token, and remove any of subsequent tokens as listed]
505 If "rotate" is absent, lyx2lyx should ignore "rotateAngle <val>":
506 if ( "rotateAngle <val>" is there WITHOUT being preceded by the keyword "rotate" )
508 replace "rotateAngle <val>" by "rotateAngle 0"
511 2002-08-12 Andre' Poenitz <poenitz@gmx.de>
513 Added \lyxlock for locked math inset when written to .lyx file.
514 When "downgrading" .lyx files this should simple be deleted but it
515 does not hurt at all if it stays in. It does not have to be added
519 2002-08-02 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
521 Added a boolean "preview" flag to InsetCommandParams.
522 Currently it is written only by InsetInclude, because only this
523 class can generate a preview of its contents.
525 The LyX file now contains:
527 \begin_inset Include \input{snapshot_t=40.tex}
532 Earlier versions of LyX just swallow this extra token silently.
534 2002-08-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
536 The 1.2.0 InsetGraphicsParams "size_type" and "lyxsize_type" have been
537 renamed as "size_kind" and "lyxsize_kind" respectively.
539 \begin_inset Graphics FormatVersion 1
546 - lyxsize_kind original
547 + lyxsize_type original
