1 LyX file-format changes
2 -----------------------§
4 2006-10-03 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
6 * format incremented to 251: save show_label param for charstyles.
8 On revert, the show_label param is just removed. Nothing to convert.
10 2006-10-12 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
12 * Format incremented to 250: allow optional arg to environments
14 No material format change. Now optargs for environments are allowed
15 to be specified in layout files and will be handled properly. When
16 converted back to older formats, they will be ignored in LaTeX
19 2006-08-14 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
21 * format incremented to 249: Unicode
23 LyX documents are now always encoded in utf8. The value of
24 \inputencoding does now only determine the encoding of the created
26 Up to format 248 the value of \inputencoding did also determine the
27 encoding of the LyX file:
29 \inputencoding LyX file encoding
30 auto as determined by the document language
32 everything else as determined by \inputencoding
34 2006-07-03 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
36 * format incremented to 248: Basic booktabs support
38 The <features> tag has a new switch: booktabs="true|false".
39 An absent switch is equivalent to booktabs="false".
40 Horizontal lines are set with the booktabs package if this switch
43 The <row> tag of tabulars has the following new attributes:
44 topspace, bottomspace and interlinespace. All take a LyXLength
45 as value, or the special keyword "default".
47 2006-06-10 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
49 * format incremented to 247. The Grand Font Interface Rewrite.
50 (1) Split font selection to rm, sf, tt:
51 \fontscheme -> \font_roman, \font_sans, \font_typewriter
53 \fontscheme \font_roman \font_sans \font_typewriter
54 default default default default
56 times times default default
57 palatino palatino default default
58 helvet default helvet default
59 avant default avant default
60 newcent newcent default default
61 bookman bookman default default
62 pslatex times (or \usepackage{pslatex})
64 \font_roman: cmr (-> \renewcommand{\rmdefault}{cmr}),
65 lmodern, charter, utopia, ccfonts, chancery, beraserif
66 (-> \usepackage{<name>})
67 \font_sans: cmss, lmss, cmbr
68 (-> \renewcommand{\sfdefault}{<name>})
69 berasans (-> \usepackage{<name>})
70 \font_typewriter: cmtt, lmtt, cmtl,
71 (-> \renewcommand{\sfdefault}{<name>})
72 courier, luximono, beramono
73 (-> \usepackage{<name>})
74 (2) New param \font_default_family (rmdefault, sfdefault, ttdefault)
75 (3) New param \font_sc (true, false).
76 (4) New param \font_osf (true, false).
77 (5) New param \font_sf_scale (float)
78 (6) New param \font_tt_scale (float)
79 Support for the following fonts has been added:
80 bera, ccfonts, chancery, charter, cmbright, computer modern (explicitely),
81 courier, lmodern, luximono, utopia.
82 Support for the following font has been removed:
83 pslatex (it's superseded by mathptmx (times)).
85 2006-06-03 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
87 * format incremented to 246. The framed.sty package is
88 now supported with note types framed and shaded.
90 2005-10-12 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
92 * format incremented to 245. The \quotes_times parameter
95 2005-09-24 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
97 * format incremented to 244. Rename '\InsetSpace \,'
98 to '\InsetSpace \thinspace{}', because the comma was
99 not parsed by lyxlex, and '\InsetSpace \space' to
100 '\InsetSpace \space{}' in favour of consistency.
102 2005-07-18 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
104 * format incremented to 243.
106 * this change only affects the preamble, the paperpackage
107 option was removed and papersize is changed to default.
109 2005-06-21 Jean-Marc Lasgouttes <lasgouttes@lyx.org>
111 * format incremented to 242. There is no file format per
112 se, but the "frenchb" language has been removed from lib/language
113 and has to be translated to "french" by lyx2lyx.
115 2005-02-03 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
117 * format incremented to 241.
119 All following changes apply only to text in ERT insets. The
120 rationale is that text in ERT is simply ASCII text, and nothing more.
122 * paragraph breaks are now a single newline in latex and not a
123 paragraph break anymore (bug 698).
124 * \newline is not allowed anymore, because it is redundant (see above)
125 * layouts other than Standard, paragraph parameters and font changes
126 are not allowed anymore. They never made sense and were ignored for
127 latex output, but now they can't be read or set anymore (bug 922).
130 2005-01-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmüller@gmx.de>
132 * format incremented to 240.
134 \output_changes {true|false}
135 (should the change tracking marks be visible in the output or not?)
136 * lyx2lyx should just delete the param in 239.
138 2005-01-06 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
140 * format incremented to 239.
141 * the paragraph parameters are displayed in their own line. This
142 change is consistent with the insets behaviour, and corresponds
143 to a more uniform treatment of the paragraphs since some of them
144 had already their own line.
146 An example of a single paragraph follows:
148 \begin_layout Standard
149 \paragraph_spacing single
155 2004-12-03 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
157 * format incremented to 238.
158 * The compatibility code to read old latex accents from 0.12.x in
159 InsetLatexAccent::checkContents has been removed.
160 The following translations are done:
162 "\i \xy" -> "\i \x{y}"
163 "\i \x y" -> "\i \x{y}"
164 "\i \x\i" -> "\i \x{\i}"
165 "\i \x\j" -> "\i \x{\j}"
166 x is a latex accent command, y the base character. \, i and j are
168 lyx did these changes already from 0.12.x -> 215, but not lyx2lyx,
169 so formats 215 - 237 can have both versions.
172 2004-10-10 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
174 * format incremented to 237.
175 * In the header, the following statments use now booleans values,
181 2004-08-15 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
183 * format incremented to 236.
190 * The options for \papersize are changed:
193 * All whitespaces are removed at the end of lines, when
194 not necessary. As an example we have all the lines in the header that
195 do not belong to the preamble.
197 2004-07-01 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
199 * format incremented to 235.
200 * \paperpackage had an off-by-one error. Translation table:
202 234: a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
203 235: none a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
205 The "widemarginsa4" setting of 235 has no equivalent in 234.
207 2004-05-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
209 * format incremented to 234.
210 * the citation engine is specified explicitly rather than being
211 deduced from 3 bools.
214 \use_numerical_citations 0 -> \cite_engine <style>
217 where <style> is one of "basic", "natbib_authoryear",
218 "natbib_numerical" or "jurabib".
220 2004-04-29 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
222 * format incremented to 233.
223 * insetgraphics does not allow filenames without extension anymore.
224 The complete filename has to be given.
226 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
228 * format incremented to 232.
230 * Support for bibtopic (sectioned bibliographies).
231 - bufferparam \use_bibtopic [1|0]
232 - the bibtex inset has a second argument for bibtopic's
233 btPrint{Cited|NotCited|All} command:
235 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>]{<database>}
237 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>][<btPrintX>]{<database>}
238 Forwards, there's nothing to be done. Backwards, \usepackage[dot]{bibtopic}
239 has to be inserted to the preamble. Instead of the bibtex inset, the LaTeX
240 \bibliographystyle{<style>}
241 \begin{btSect}{<database>}
246 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
248 * format incremented to 231.
250 * Support for sidewaysfigure/sidewaystable (rotating package).
251 insetfloat has now a param \sideways [true|false] (default is false).
252 The param should be erased on downwards conversion, if it was true,
253 the inset should be replaced by
254 \begin{sidewaysfigure} <content> \end{sidewaysfigure}
256 \begin{sidewaystable} <content> \end{sidewaystable}
259 2004-02-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
261 * format incremented to 230.
263 * Support for a second optional argument in insetcommand.
264 currently, citation uses this to support natbibs second
265 optional argument \cite[before][after]{key}.
266 I think there's nothing to convert upwards. Downwards, the
267 commands with 2 optional args need to be converted to ERT.
269 * Support for jurabib (param \use_jurabib [1|0], default is 0).
270 When converting downwards, \usepackage{jurabib} has to be added
271 to the preamble and, if babel is used, \usepackage{babel} before
272 (jurabib fails if babel is called afterwards). If the natbib commands
273 are used together with jurabib, they have to be converted to ERT too.
275 2003-12-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
277 * format incremented to 229.
278 * Minipages cannot be read anymore. All minipage insets will
279 be converted to frameless box insets between 228->229.
281 2003-12-15 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
283 * format incremented to 228.
284 * Change the output of all insets derived from InsetCollapsable
285 except for InsetERT (which has a similar output already), changing lines
286 "collapsed true" -> "status collapsed"
287 "collapsed false" -> "status open".
288 * Change the output of InsetERT, changing lines
289 "status Collapsed" -> "status collapsed"
290 "status Open" -> "status open".
291 "status Inlined" -> "status inlined".
293 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
295 * format NOT incremented.
296 * add a 'draft' option to InsetExternal.
298 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
300 * format incremented to 227.
301 * Change the output of InsetBox:
302 \begin_inset Boxed -> \begin_inset Box Boxed
303 \begin_inset Doublebox -> \begin_inset Box Doublebox
304 \begin_inset Frameless -> \begin_inset Box Frameless
305 \begin_inset ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box ovalbox
306 \begin_inset Ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box Ovalbox
307 \begin_inset Shadowbox -> \begin_inset Box Shadowbox
309 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
311 * format incremented to 226.
312 * Change the output of InsetNote:
313 \begin_inset Note -> \begin_inset Note Note
314 \begin_inset Comment -> \begin_inset Note Comment
315 \begin_inset Greyedout -> \begin_inset Note Greyedout
317 2003-11-28 André Pönitz
319 * Remove space_above/space_below from Paragraph.
320 This is now handled by InsetVSpace.
322 2003-10-07 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
324 * Add transformations to InsetExternal
326 boundingBox 0 0 20 20 the dimensions of the B.B..
327 Output if the B.B. is not empty.
328 clip clip the image to the B.B.
330 extra LaTeX "draft" 'extra' data passed to the primary
331 command for this output format.
332 (Possible formats LaTeX, PDFLaTeX,
333 LinuxDoc, DocBook, Ascii.)
334 The string can contain spaces and so
336 rotateAngle 30 Rotation of the data.
337 Output for non-zero rotation only.
338 rotateOrigin bottomleft Rotation origin.
339 Output for non-zero rotation and
340 non-default origin (center) only.
342 width 2cm Output only if the image is resized.
346 2003-10-07 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
348 * Added box inset. File format:
350 \begin_inset Ovalbox Boxed/Frameless/ovalbox/Ovalbox
355 inner_pos "b" t/c/b/s
357 width "100col%" unit+width-string
358 special "none" none/height/depth
360 height "1in" unit+width-string
361 height_special "totalheight" none/height/depth
363 collapsed false true/false
365 \begin_layout Standard
372 This box (Frameless, has_inner_box=1, use_parbox=0) replaces
373 the pre-existing Minipage inset. Parameters translate as follows:
374 position 0/1/2 -> t/c/b
375 inner_position 0/1/2/3 -> inner_pos c/t/b/s
380 2003-08-19 Michael Schmitt <michael.schmitt@teststep.org>
382 * attribute valignment="center" is replaced by valignment="middle"
383 for tabular columns and cells
385 2003-08-17 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
387 * Added branch inset. File format:
389 branch definition in the header:
395 \begin_inset Branch <branchname>
396 collapsed false true/false
398 \begin_layout Standard
405 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
407 * \the_end is replaced with \end_document
409 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
411 * \layout is replaced with \begin_layout
413 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@fep.up.pt>
417 * All layouts finish now with \end_layout
419 2003-06-04 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
423 * the storage of the external inset has been changed from
425 \begin_inset External XFig,"file.fig",""
431 \begin_inset External
434 display <display_type>
439 throwing away the final arg (here "", more generally "<string>") that holds
440 the parameters variable.
441 Variables are output if present (filename) or different from the default
442 values (display, lyxscale).
444 Moreover, the RasterImage template has been scrapped. All RasterImage
445 external insets are now converted to Graphics insets.
447 2003-05-20 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
449 * Added new space insets:
450 \SpecialChar ~ is now \InsetSpace ~
451 ERT: "\ " could be converted to InsetSpace \<space>
452 ERT: "\," could be converted to InsetSpace \,
454 2003-04-24 André Pönitz <poenitz@gmx.net>
456 * Added eqref support:
457 \begin_inset LatexCommand \eqref{label}
459 2003-03-14 Dekel Tsur
461 * Format bumped to 223.
463 2003-03-12 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
465 * Added \\end_header to signify the end of the header in a
468 * use_amsmath is now a tristate {0 = never, 1 = auto, 2 = always}
470 2003-02-10 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
474 Added \\tracking_changes 0|1 to the header.
476 Added \\author to the header. This can be present multiple
477 times, and is of the form :
479 \\author "Real Name" email@address.com
481 Added \\change_deleted, \\change_inserted. Each of these does not
482 span a paragraph, and is delimited by "\\change_unchanged\n". Both are
485 \\change_inserted author time
487 where author is an integer ID reference into the author list in
488 the header, and time is time_t.
490 2002-10-24 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
492 * insetgraphicsParams.h (scale): is now a float, not an unsigned int.
494 2002-08-22 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
496 New graphics dialog. With the removal of buttons in the dialog, also
497 keywords in the graphics inset went. The following keywords do not
507 Only non-default values are saved to the lyx files. The defaults of the remaining
517 BoundingBox <from file>
520 rotateOrigin centerBaseline
522 subcaptionText <empty>
525 The remaining keywords have sufficient overlap with the old ones for a
526 smooth reading of the 1.2.x inset keywords in most common cases.
528 Compatibility is certainly broken for the old lyxwidth/lyxheight keywords.
529 They don't exist anymore and we can't translate them into a scaling value, while
530 we're reading the graphics inset. The old lyxwidth/lyxheight keyword and its
531 argument is ignored and lost.
533 Only few compatibility issues are left for lyx2lyx:
535 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
536 old-token new-token remove
537 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
538 size_kind original / size_type 0 scale 100 width <val>
542 size_kind width_height / size_type 1 - scale <val>
544 lyxsize_kind original / lyxsize_type 0 lyxscale 100 lyxscale <val>
545 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
546 [replace old-token by new-token, and remove any of subsequent tokens as listed]
548 If "rotate" is absent, lyx2lyx should ignore "rotateAngle <val>":
549 if ( "rotateAngle <val>" is there WITHOUT being preceded by the keyword "rotate" )
551 replace "rotateAngle <val>" by "rotateAngle 0"
554 2002-08-12 Andre' Poenitz <poenitz@gmx.de>
556 Added \lyxlock for locked math inset when written to .lyx file.
557 When "downgrading" .lyx files this should simple be deleted but it
558 does not hurt at all if it stays in. It does not have to be added
562 2002-08-02 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
564 Added a boolean "preview" flag to InsetCommandParams.
565 Currently it is written only by InsetInclude, because only this
566 class can generate a preview of its contents.
568 The LyX file now contains:
570 \begin_inset Include \input{snapshot_t=40.tex}
575 Earlier versions of LyX just swallow this extra token silently.
577 2002-08-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
579 The 1.2.0 InsetGraphicsParams "size_type" and "lyxsize_type" have been
580 renamed as "size_kind" and "lyxsize_kind" respectively.
582 \begin_inset Graphics FormatVersion 1
589 - lyxsize_kind original
590 + lyxsize_type original
