1 LyX file-format changes
2 -----------------------
4 2005-01-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmüller@gmx.de>
6 * format incremented to 240.
8 \output_changes {true|false}
9 (should the change tracking marks be visible in the output or not?)
10 * lyx2lyx should just delete the param in 239.
12 2005-01-06 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
14 * format incremented to 239.
15 * the paragraph parameters are displayed in their own line. This
16 change is consistent with the insets behaviour, and corresponds
17 to a more uniform treatment of the paragraphs since some of them
18 had already their own line.
20 An example of a single paragraph follows:
22 \begin_layout Standard
23 \paragraph_spacing single
29 2004-12-03 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
31 * format incremented to 238.
32 * The compatibility code to read old latex accents from 0.12.x in
33 InsetLatexAccent::checkContents has been removed.
34 The following translations are done:
36 "\i \xy" -> "\i \x{y}"
37 "\i \x y" -> "\i \x{y}"
38 "\i \x\i" -> "\i \x{\i}"
39 "\i \x\j" -> "\i \x{\j}"
40 x is a latex accent command, y the base character. \, i and j are
42 lyx did these changes already from 0.12.x -> 215, but not lyx2lyx,
43 so formats 215 - 237 can have both versions.
46 2004-10-10 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
48 * format incremented to 237.
49 * In the header, the following statments use now booleans values,
55 2004-08-15 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
57 * format incremented to 236.
64 * The options for \papersize are changed:
67 * All whitespaces are removed at the end of lines, when
68 not necessary. As an example we have all the lines in the header that
69 do not belong to the preamble.
71 2004-07-01 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
73 * format incremented to 235.
74 * \paperpackage had an off-by-one error. Translation table:
76 234: a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
77 235: none a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
79 The "widemarginsa4" setting of 235 has no equivalent in 234.
81 2004-05-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
83 * format incremented to 234.
84 * the citation engine is specified explicitly rather than being
88 \use_numerical_citations 0 -> \cite_engine <style>
91 where <style> is one of "basic", "natbib_authoryear",
92 "natbib_numerical" or "jurabib".
94 2004-04-29 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
96 * format incremented to 233.
97 * insetgraphics does not allow filenames without extension anymore.
98 The complete filename has to be given.
100 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
102 * format incremented to 232.
104 * Support for bibtopic (sectioned bibliographies).
105 - bufferparam \use_bibtopic [1|0]
106 - the bibtex inset has a second argument for bibtopic's
107 btPrint{Cited|NotCited|All} command:
109 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>]{<database>}
111 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>][<btPrintX>]{<database>}
112 Forwards, there's nothing to be done. Backwards, \usepackage[dot]{bibtopic}
113 has to be inserted to the preamble. Instead of the bibtex inset, the LaTeX
114 \bibliographystyle{<style>}
115 \begin{btSect}{<database>}
120 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
122 * format incremented to 231.
124 * Support for sidewaysfigure/sidewaystable (rotating package).
125 insetfloat has now a param \sideways [true|false] (default is false).
126 The param should be erased on downwards conversion, if it was true,
127 the inset should be replaced by
128 \begin{sidewaysfigure} <content> \end{sidewaysfigure}
130 \begin{sidewaystable} <content> \end{sidewaystable}
133 2004-02-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
135 * format incremented to 230.
137 * Support for a second optional argument in insetcommand.
138 currently, citation uses this to support natbibs second
139 optional argument \cite[before][after]{key}.
140 I think there's nothing to convert upwards. Downwards, the
141 commands with 2 optional args need to be converted to ERT.
143 * Support for jurabib (param \use_jurabib [1|0], default is 0).
144 When converting downwards, \usepackage{jurabib} has to be added
145 to the preamble and, if babel is used, \usepackage{babel} before
146 (jurabib fails if babel is called afterwards). If the natbib commands
147 are used together with jurabib, they have to be converted to ERT too.
149 2003-12-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
151 * format incremented to 229.
152 * Minipages cannot be read anymore. All minipage insets will
153 be converted to frameless box insets between 228->229.
155 2003-12-15 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
157 * format incremented to 228.
158 * Change the output of all insets derived from InsetCollapsable
159 except for InsetERT (which has a similar output already), changing lines
160 "collapsed true" -> "status collapsed"
161 "collapsed false" -> "status open".
162 * Change the output of InsetERT, changing lines
163 "status Collapsed" -> "status collapsed"
164 "status Open" -> "status open".
165 "status Inlined" -> "status inlined".
167 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
169 * format NOT incremented.
170 * add a 'draft' option to InsetExternal.
172 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
174 * format incremented to 227.
175 * Change the output of InsetBox:
176 \begin_inset Boxed -> \begin_inset Box Boxed
177 \begin_inset Doublebox -> \begin_inset Box Doublebox
178 \begin_inset Frameless -> \begin_inset Box Frameless
179 \begin_inset ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box ovalbox
180 \begin_inset Ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box Ovalbox
181 \begin_inset Shadowbox -> \begin_inset Box Shadowbox
183 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
185 * format incremented to 226.
186 * Change the output of InsetNote:
187 \begin_inset Note -> \begin_inset Note Note
188 \begin_inset Comment -> \begin_inset Note Comment
189 \begin_inset Greyedout -> \begin_inset Note Greyedout
191 2003-11-28 André Pönitz
193 * Remove space_above/space_below from Paragraph.
194 This is now handled by InsetVSpace.
196 2003-10-07 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
198 * Add transformations to InsetExternal
200 boundingBox 0 0 20 20 the dimensions of the B.B..
201 Output if the B.B. is not empty.
202 clip clip the image to the B.B.
204 extra LaTeX "draft" 'extra' data passed to the primary
205 command for this output format.
206 (Possible formats LaTeX, PDFLaTeX,
207 LinuxDoc, DocBook, Ascii.)
208 The string can contain spaces and so
210 rotateAngle 30 Rotation of the data.
211 Output for non-zero rotation only.
212 rotateOrigin bottomleft Rotation origin.
213 Output for non-zero rotation and
214 non-default origin (center) only.
216 width 2cm Output only if the image is resized.
220 2003-10-07 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
222 * Added box inset. File format:
224 \begin_inset Ovalbox Boxed/Frameless/ovalbox/Ovalbox
229 inner_pos "b" t/c/b/s
231 width "100col%" unit+width-string
232 special "none" none/height/depth
234 height "1in" unit+width-string
235 height_special "totalheight" none/height/depth
237 collapsed false true/false
239 \begin_layout Standard
246 This box (Frameless, has_inner_box=1, use_parbox=0) replaces
247 the pre-existing Minipage inset. Parameters translate as follows:
248 position 0/1/2 -> t/c/b
249 inner_position 0/1/2/3 -> inner_pos c/t/b/s
254 2003-08-19 Michael Schmitt <michael.schmitt@teststep.org>
256 * attribute valignment="center" is replaced by valignment="middle"
257 for tabular columns and cells
259 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
261 * \the_end is replaced with \end_document
263 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
265 * \layout is replaced with \begin_layout
267 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@fep.up.pt>
271 * All layouts finish now with \end_layout
273 2003-06-04 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
277 * the storage of the external inset has been changed from
279 \begin_inset External XFig,"file.fig",""
285 \begin_inset External
288 display <display_type>
293 throwing away the final arg (here "", more generally "<string>") that holds
294 the parameters variable.
295 Variables are output if present (filename) or different from the default
296 values (display, lyxscale).
298 Moreover, the RasterImage template has been scrapped. All RasterImage
299 external insets are now converted to Graphics insets.
301 2003-05-20 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
303 * Added new space insets:
304 \SpecialChar ~ is now \InsetSpace ~
305 ERT: "\ " could be converted to InsetSpace \<space>
306 ERT: "\," could be converted to InsetSpace \,
308 2003-03-12 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
310 * Added \\end_header to signify the end of the header in a
313 * use_amsmath is now a tristate {0 = never, 1 = auto, 2 = always}
315 2003-02-10 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
319 Added \\tracking_changes 0|1 to the header.
321 Added \\author to the header. This can be present multiple
322 times, and is of the form :
324 \\author "Real Name" email@address.com
326 Added \\change_deleted, \\change_inserted. Each of these does not
327 span a paragraph, and is delimited by "\\change_unchanged\n". Both are
330 \\change_inserted author time
332 where author is an integer ID reference into the author list in
333 the header, and time is time_t.
335 2002-10-24 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
337 * insetgraphicsParams.h (scale): is now a float, not an unsigned int.
339 2002-08-22 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
341 New graphics dialog. With the removal of buttons in the dialog, also
342 keywords in the graphics inset went. The following keywords do not
352 Only non-default values are saved to the lyx files. The defaults of the remaining
362 BoundingBox <from file>
365 rotateOrigin centerBaseline
367 subcaptionText <empty>
370 The remaining keywords have sufficient overlap with the old ones for a
371 smooth reading of the 1.2.x inset keywords in most common cases.
373 Compatibility is certainly broken for the old lyxwidth/lyxheight keywords.
374 They don't exist anymore and we can't translate them into a scaling value, while
375 we're reading the graphics inset. The old lyxwidth/lyxheight keyword and its
376 argument is ignored and lost.
378 Only few compatibility issues are left for lyx2lyx:
380 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
381 old-token new-token remove
382 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
383 size_kind original / size_type 0 scale 100 width <val>
387 size_kind width_height / size_type 1 - scale <val>
389 lyxsize_kind original / lyxsize_type 0 lyxscale 100 lyxscale <val>
390 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
391 [replace old-token by new-token, and remove any of subsequent tokens as listed]
393 If "rotate" is absent, lyx2lyx should ignore "rotateAngle <val>":
394 if ( "rotateAngle <val>" is there WITHOUT being preceded by the keyword "rotate" )
396 replace "rotateAngle <val>" by "rotateAngle 0"
399 2002-08-12 Andre' Poenitz <poenitz@gmx.de>
401 Added \lyxlock for locked math inset when written to .lyx file.
402 When "downgrading" .lyx files this should simple be deleted but it
403 does not hurt at all if it stays in. It does not have to be added
407 2002-08-02 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
409 Added a boolean "preview" flag to InsetCommandParams.
410 Currently it is written only by InsetInclude, because only this
411 class can generate a preview of its contents.
413 The LyX file now contains:
415 \begin_inset Include \input{snapshot_t=40.tex}
420 Earlier versions of LyX just swallow this extra token silently.
422 2002-08-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
424 The 1.2.0 InsetGraphicsParams "size_type" and "lyxsize_type" have been
425 renamed as "size_kind" and "lyxsize_kind" respectively.
427 \begin_inset Graphics FormatVersion 1
434 - lyxsize_kind original
435 + lyxsize_type original
