1 LyX file-format changes
2 -----------------------
4 2005-10-12 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
6 * format incremented to 245. The \quotes_times parameter
9 2005-09-24 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
11 * format incremented to 244. Rename '\InsetSpace \,'
12 to '\InsetSpace \thinspace{}', because the comma was
13 not parsed by lyxlex, and '\InsetSpace \space' to
14 '\InsetSpace \space{}' in favour of consistency.
16 2005-07-18 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
18 * format incremented to 243.
20 * this change only affects the preamble, the paperpackage
21 option was removed and papersize is changed to default.
23 2005-06-21 Jean-Marc Lasgouttes <lasgouttes@lyx.org>
25 * format incremented to 242. There is no file format per
26 se, but the "frenchb" language has been removed from lib/language
27 and has to be translated to "french" by lyx2lyx.
29 2005-02-03 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
31 * format incremented to 241.
33 All following changes apply only to text in ERT insets. The
34 rationale is that text in ERT is simply ASCII text, and nothing more.
36 * paragraph breaks are now a single newline in latex and not a
37 paragraph break anymore (bug 698).
38 * \newline is not allowed anymore, because it is redundant (see above)
39 * layouts other than Standard, paragraph parameters and font changes
40 are not allowed anymore. They never made sense and were ignored for
41 latex output, but now they can't be read or set anymore (bug 922).
44 2005-01-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmüller@gmx.de>
46 * format incremented to 240.
48 \output_changes {true|false}
49 (should the change tracking marks be visible in the output or not?)
50 * lyx2lyx should just delete the param in 239.
52 2005-01-06 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
54 * format incremented to 239.
55 * the paragraph parameters are displayed in their own line. This
56 change is consistent with the insets behaviour, and corresponds
57 to a more uniform treatment of the paragraphs since some of them
58 had already their own line.
60 An example of a single paragraph follows:
62 \begin_layout Standard
63 \paragraph_spacing single
69 2004-12-03 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
71 * format incremented to 238.
72 * The compatibility code to read old latex accents from 0.12.x in
73 InsetLatexAccent::checkContents has been removed.
74 The following translations are done:
76 "\i \xy" -> "\i \x{y}"
77 "\i \x y" -> "\i \x{y}"
78 "\i \x\i" -> "\i \x{\i}"
79 "\i \x\j" -> "\i \x{\j}"
80 x is a latex accent command, y the base character. \, i and j are
82 lyx did these changes already from 0.12.x -> 215, but not lyx2lyx,
83 so formats 215 - 237 can have both versions.
86 2004-10-10 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
88 * format incremented to 237.
89 * In the header, the following statments use now booleans values,
95 2004-08-15 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
97 * format incremented to 236.
104 * The options for \papersize are changed:
107 * All whitespaces are removed at the end of lines, when
108 not necessary. As an example we have all the lines in the header that
109 do not belong to the preamble.
111 2004-07-01 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
113 * format incremented to 235.
114 * \paperpackage had an off-by-one error. Translation table:
116 234: a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
117 235: none a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
119 The "widemarginsa4" setting of 235 has no equivalent in 234.
121 2004-05-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
123 * format incremented to 234.
124 * the citation engine is specified explicitly rather than being
125 deduced from 3 bools.
128 \use_numerical_citations 0 -> \cite_engine <style>
131 where <style> is one of "basic", "natbib_authoryear",
132 "natbib_numerical" or "jurabib".
134 2004-04-29 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
136 * format incremented to 233.
137 * insetgraphics does not allow filenames without extension anymore.
138 The complete filename has to be given.
140 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
142 * format incremented to 232.
144 * Support for bibtopic (sectioned bibliographies).
145 - bufferparam \use_bibtopic [1|0]
146 - the bibtex inset has a second argument for bibtopic's
147 btPrint{Cited|NotCited|All} command:
149 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>]{<database>}
151 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>][<btPrintX>]{<database>}
152 Forwards, there's nothing to be done. Backwards, \usepackage[dot]{bibtopic}
153 has to be inserted to the preamble. Instead of the bibtex inset, the LaTeX
154 \bibliographystyle{<style>}
155 \begin{btSect}{<database>}
160 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
162 * format incremented to 231.
164 * Support for sidewaysfigure/sidewaystable (rotating package).
165 insetfloat has now a param \sideways [true|false] (default is false).
166 The param should be erased on downwards conversion, if it was true,
167 the inset should be replaced by
168 \begin{sidewaysfigure} <content> \end{sidewaysfigure}
170 \begin{sidewaystable} <content> \end{sidewaystable}
173 2004-02-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
175 * format incremented to 230.
177 * Support for a second optional argument in insetcommand.
178 currently, citation uses this to support natbibs second
179 optional argument \cite[before][after]{key}.
180 I think there's nothing to convert upwards. Downwards, the
181 commands with 2 optional args need to be converted to ERT.
183 * Support for jurabib (param \use_jurabib [1|0], default is 0).
184 When converting downwards, \usepackage{jurabib} has to be added
185 to the preamble and, if babel is used, \usepackage{babel} before
186 (jurabib fails if babel is called afterwards). If the natbib commands
187 are used together with jurabib, they have to be converted to ERT too.
189 2003-12-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
191 * format incremented to 229.
192 * Minipages cannot be read anymore. All minipage insets will
193 be converted to frameless box insets between 228->229.
195 2003-12-15 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
197 * format incremented to 228.
198 * Change the output of all insets derived from InsetCollapsable
199 except for InsetERT (which has a similar output already), changing lines
200 "collapsed true" -> "status collapsed"
201 "collapsed false" -> "status open".
202 * Change the output of InsetERT, changing lines
203 "status Collapsed" -> "status collapsed"
204 "status Open" -> "status open".
205 "status Inlined" -> "status inlined".
207 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
209 * format NOT incremented.
210 * add a 'draft' option to InsetExternal.
212 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
214 * format incremented to 227.
215 * Change the output of InsetBox:
216 \begin_inset Boxed -> \begin_inset Box Boxed
217 \begin_inset Doublebox -> \begin_inset Box Doublebox
218 \begin_inset Frameless -> \begin_inset Box Frameless
219 \begin_inset ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box ovalbox
220 \begin_inset Ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box Ovalbox
221 \begin_inset Shadowbox -> \begin_inset Box Shadowbox
223 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
225 * format incremented to 226.
226 * Change the output of InsetNote:
227 \begin_inset Note -> \begin_inset Note Note
228 \begin_inset Comment -> \begin_inset Note Comment
229 \begin_inset Greyedout -> \begin_inset Note Greyedout
231 2003-11-28 André Pönitz
233 * Remove space_above/space_below from Paragraph.
234 This is now handled by InsetVSpace.
236 2003-10-07 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
238 * Add transformations to InsetExternal
240 boundingBox 0 0 20 20 the dimensions of the B.B..
241 Output if the B.B. is not empty.
242 clip clip the image to the B.B.
244 extra LaTeX "draft" 'extra' data passed to the primary
245 command for this output format.
246 (Possible formats LaTeX, PDFLaTeX,
247 LinuxDoc, DocBook, Ascii.)
248 The string can contain spaces and so
250 rotateAngle 30 Rotation of the data.
251 Output for non-zero rotation only.
252 rotateOrigin bottomleft Rotation origin.
253 Output for non-zero rotation and
254 non-default origin (center) only.
256 width 2cm Output only if the image is resized.
260 2003-10-07 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
262 * Added box inset. File format:
264 \begin_inset Ovalbox Boxed/Frameless/ovalbox/Ovalbox
269 inner_pos "b" t/c/b/s
271 width "100col%" unit+width-string
272 special "none" none/height/depth
274 height "1in" unit+width-string
275 height_special "totalheight" none/height/depth
277 collapsed false true/false
279 \begin_layout Standard
286 This box (Frameless, has_inner_box=1, use_parbox=0) replaces
287 the pre-existing Minipage inset. Parameters translate as follows:
288 position 0/1/2 -> t/c/b
289 inner_position 0/1/2/3 -> inner_pos c/t/b/s
294 2003-08-19 Michael Schmitt <michael.schmitt@teststep.org>
296 * attribute valignment="center" is replaced by valignment="middle"
297 for tabular columns and cells
299 2003-08-17 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
301 * Added branch inset. File format:
303 branch definition in the header:
309 \begin_inset Branch <branchname>
310 collapsed false true/false
312 \begin_layout Standard
319 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
321 * \the_end is replaced with \end_document
323 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
325 * \layout is replaced with \begin_layout
327 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@fep.up.pt>
331 * All layouts finish now with \end_layout
333 2003-06-04 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
337 * the storage of the external inset has been changed from
339 \begin_inset External XFig,"file.fig",""
345 \begin_inset External
348 display <display_type>
353 throwing away the final arg (here "", more generally "<string>") that holds
354 the parameters variable.
355 Variables are output if present (filename) or different from the default
356 values (display, lyxscale).
358 Moreover, the RasterImage template has been scrapped. All RasterImage
359 external insets are now converted to Graphics insets.
361 2003-05-20 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
363 * Added new space insets:
364 \SpecialChar ~ is now \InsetSpace ~
365 ERT: "\ " could be converted to InsetSpace \<space>
366 ERT: "\," could be converted to InsetSpace \,
368 2003-04-24 André Pönitz <poenitz@gmx.net>
370 * Added eqref support:
371 \begin_inset LatexCommand \eqref{label}
373 2003-03-14 Dekel Tsur
375 * Format bumped to 223.
377 2003-03-12 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
379 * Added \\end_header to signify the end of the header in a
382 * use_amsmath is now a tristate {0 = never, 1 = auto, 2 = always}
384 2003-02-10 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
388 Added \\tracking_changes 0|1 to the header.
390 Added \\author to the header. This can be present multiple
391 times, and is of the form :
393 \\author "Real Name" email@address.com
395 Added \\change_deleted, \\change_inserted. Each of these does not
396 span a paragraph, and is delimited by "\\change_unchanged\n". Both are
399 \\change_inserted author time
401 where author is an integer ID reference into the author list in
402 the header, and time is time_t.
404 2002-10-24 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
406 * insetgraphicsParams.h (scale): is now a float, not an unsigned int.
408 2002-08-22 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
410 New graphics dialog. With the removal of buttons in the dialog, also
411 keywords in the graphics inset went. The following keywords do not
421 Only non-default values are saved to the lyx files. The defaults of the remaining
431 BoundingBox <from file>
434 rotateOrigin centerBaseline
436 subcaptionText <empty>
439 The remaining keywords have sufficient overlap with the old ones for a
440 smooth reading of the 1.2.x inset keywords in most common cases.
442 Compatibility is certainly broken for the old lyxwidth/lyxheight keywords.
443 They don't exist anymore and we can't translate them into a scaling value, while
444 we're reading the graphics inset. The old lyxwidth/lyxheight keyword and its
445 argument is ignored and lost.
447 Only few compatibility issues are left for lyx2lyx:
449 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
450 old-token new-token remove
451 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
452 size_kind original / size_type 0 scale 100 width <val>
456 size_kind width_height / size_type 1 - scale <val>
458 lyxsize_kind original / lyxsize_type 0 lyxscale 100 lyxscale <val>
459 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
460 [replace old-token by new-token, and remove any of subsequent tokens as listed]
462 If "rotate" is absent, lyx2lyx should ignore "rotateAngle <val>":
463 if ( "rotateAngle <val>" is there WITHOUT being preceded by the keyword "rotate" )
465 replace "rotateAngle <val>" by "rotateAngle 0"
468 2002-08-12 Andre' Poenitz <poenitz@gmx.de>
470 Added \lyxlock for locked math inset when written to .lyx file.
471 When "downgrading" .lyx files this should simple be deleted but it
472 does not hurt at all if it stays in. It does not have to be added
476 2002-08-02 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
478 Added a boolean "preview" flag to InsetCommandParams.
479 Currently it is written only by InsetInclude, because only this
480 class can generate a preview of its contents.
482 The LyX file now contains:
484 \begin_inset Include \input{snapshot_t=40.tex}
489 Earlier versions of LyX just swallow this extra token silently.
491 2002-08-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
493 The 1.2.0 InsetGraphicsParams "size_type" and "lyxsize_type" have been
494 renamed as "size_kind" and "lyxsize_kind" respectively.
496 \begin_inset Graphics FormatVersion 1
503 - lyxsize_kind original
504 + lyxsize_type original
