1 LyX file-format changes
2 -----------------------
4 2005-07-18 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
6 * format incremented to 243.
8 * this change only affects the preamble, the paperpackage
9 option was removed and papersize is changed to default.
11 2005-06-21 Jean-Marc Lasgouttes <lasgouttes@lyx.org>
13 * format incremented to 242. There is no file format per
14 se, but the "frenchb" language has been removed from lib/language
15 and has to be translated to "french" by lyx2lyx.
17 2005-02-03 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
19 * format incremented to 241.
21 All following changes apply only to text in ERT insets. The
22 rationale is that text in ERT is simply ASCII text, and nothing more.
24 * paragraph breaks are now a single newline in latex and not a
25 paragraph break anymore (bug 698).
26 * \newline is not allowed anymore, because it is redundant (see above)
27 * layouts other than Standard, paragraph parameters and font changes
28 are not allowed anymore. They never made sense and were ignored for
29 latex output, but now they can't be read or set anymore (bug 922).
32 2005-01-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmüller@gmx.de>
34 * format incremented to 240.
36 \output_changes {true|false}
37 (should the change tracking marks be visible in the output or not?)
38 * lyx2lyx should just delete the param in 239.
40 2005-01-06 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
42 * format incremented to 239.
43 * the paragraph parameters are displayed in their own line. This
44 change is consistent with the insets behaviour, and corresponds
45 to a more uniform treatment of the paragraphs since some of them
46 had already their own line.
48 An example of a single paragraph follows:
50 \begin_layout Standard
51 \paragraph_spacing single
57 2004-12-03 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
59 * format incremented to 238.
60 * The compatibility code to read old latex accents from 0.12.x in
61 InsetLatexAccent::checkContents has been removed.
62 The following translations are done:
64 "\i \xy" -> "\i \x{y}"
65 "\i \x y" -> "\i \x{y}"
66 "\i \x\i" -> "\i \x{\i}"
67 "\i \x\j" -> "\i \x{\j}"
68 x is a latex accent command, y the base character. \, i and j are
70 lyx did these changes already from 0.12.x -> 215, but not lyx2lyx,
71 so formats 215 - 237 can have both versions.
74 2004-10-10 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
76 * format incremented to 237.
77 * In the header, the following statments use now booleans values,
83 2004-08-15 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
85 * format incremented to 236.
92 * The options for \papersize are changed:
95 * All whitespaces are removed at the end of lines, when
96 not necessary. As an example we have all the lines in the header that
97 do not belong to the preamble.
99 2004-07-01 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
101 * format incremented to 235.
102 * \paperpackage had an off-by-one error. Translation table:
104 234: a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
105 235: none a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
107 The "widemarginsa4" setting of 235 has no equivalent in 234.
109 2004-05-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
111 * format incremented to 234.
112 * the citation engine is specified explicitly rather than being
113 deduced from 3 bools.
116 \use_numerical_citations 0 -> \cite_engine <style>
119 where <style> is one of "basic", "natbib_authoryear",
120 "natbib_numerical" or "jurabib".
122 2004-04-29 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
124 * format incremented to 233.
125 * insetgraphics does not allow filenames without extension anymore.
126 The complete filename has to be given.
128 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
130 * format incremented to 232.
132 * Support for bibtopic (sectioned bibliographies).
133 - bufferparam \use_bibtopic [1|0]
134 - the bibtex inset has a second argument for bibtopic's
135 btPrint{Cited|NotCited|All} command:
137 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>]{<database>}
139 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>][<btPrintX>]{<database>}
140 Forwards, there's nothing to be done. Backwards, \usepackage[dot]{bibtopic}
141 has to be inserted to the preamble. Instead of the bibtex inset, the LaTeX
142 \bibliographystyle{<style>}
143 \begin{btSect}{<database>}
148 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
150 * format incremented to 231.
152 * Support for sidewaysfigure/sidewaystable (rotating package).
153 insetfloat has now a param \sideways [true|false] (default is false).
154 The param should be erased on downwards conversion, if it was true,
155 the inset should be replaced by
156 \begin{sidewaysfigure} <content> \end{sidewaysfigure}
158 \begin{sidewaystable} <content> \end{sidewaystable}
161 2004-02-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
163 * format incremented to 230.
165 * Support for a second optional argument in insetcommand.
166 currently, citation uses this to support natbibs second
167 optional argument \cite[before][after]{key}.
168 I think there's nothing to convert upwards. Downwards, the
169 commands with 2 optional args need to be converted to ERT.
171 * Support for jurabib (param \use_jurabib [1|0], default is 0).
172 When converting downwards, \usepackage{jurabib} has to be added
173 to the preamble and, if babel is used, \usepackage{babel} before
174 (jurabib fails if babel is called afterwards). If the natbib commands
175 are used together with jurabib, they have to be converted to ERT too.
177 2003-12-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
179 * format incremented to 229.
180 * Minipages cannot be read anymore. All minipage insets will
181 be converted to frameless box insets between 228->229.
183 2003-12-15 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
185 * format incremented to 228.
186 * Change the output of all insets derived from InsetCollapsable
187 except for InsetERT (which has a similar output already), changing lines
188 "collapsed true" -> "status collapsed"
189 "collapsed false" -> "status open".
190 * Change the output of InsetERT, changing lines
191 "status Collapsed" -> "status collapsed"
192 "status Open" -> "status open".
193 "status Inlined" -> "status inlined".
195 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
197 * format NOT incremented.
198 * add a 'draft' option to InsetExternal.
200 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
202 * format incremented to 227.
203 * Change the output of InsetBox:
204 \begin_inset Boxed -> \begin_inset Box Boxed
205 \begin_inset Doublebox -> \begin_inset Box Doublebox
206 \begin_inset Frameless -> \begin_inset Box Frameless
207 \begin_inset ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box ovalbox
208 \begin_inset Ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box Ovalbox
209 \begin_inset Shadowbox -> \begin_inset Box Shadowbox
211 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
213 * format incremented to 226.
214 * Change the output of InsetNote:
215 \begin_inset Note -> \begin_inset Note Note
216 \begin_inset Comment -> \begin_inset Note Comment
217 \begin_inset Greyedout -> \begin_inset Note Greyedout
219 2003-11-28 André Pönitz
221 * Remove space_above/space_below from Paragraph.
222 This is now handled by InsetVSpace.
224 2003-10-07 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
226 * Add transformations to InsetExternal
228 boundingBox 0 0 20 20 the dimensions of the B.B..
229 Output if the B.B. is not empty.
230 clip clip the image to the B.B.
232 extra LaTeX "draft" 'extra' data passed to the primary
233 command for this output format.
234 (Possible formats LaTeX, PDFLaTeX,
235 LinuxDoc, DocBook, Ascii.)
236 The string can contain spaces and so
238 rotateAngle 30 Rotation of the data.
239 Output for non-zero rotation only.
240 rotateOrigin bottomleft Rotation origin.
241 Output for non-zero rotation and
242 non-default origin (center) only.
244 width 2cm Output only if the image is resized.
248 2003-10-07 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
250 * Added box inset. File format:
252 \begin_inset Ovalbox Boxed/Frameless/ovalbox/Ovalbox
257 inner_pos "b" t/c/b/s
259 width "100col%" unit+width-string
260 special "none" none/height/depth
262 height "1in" unit+width-string
263 height_special "totalheight" none/height/depth
265 collapsed false true/false
267 \begin_layout Standard
274 This box (Frameless, has_inner_box=1, use_parbox=0) replaces
275 the pre-existing Minipage inset. Parameters translate as follows:
276 position 0/1/2 -> t/c/b
277 inner_position 0/1/2/3 -> inner_pos c/t/b/s
282 2003-08-19 Michael Schmitt <michael.schmitt@teststep.org>
284 * attribute valignment="center" is replaced by valignment="middle"
285 for tabular columns and cells
287 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
289 * \the_end is replaced with \end_document
291 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
293 * \layout is replaced with \begin_layout
295 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@fep.up.pt>
299 * All layouts finish now with \end_layout
301 2003-06-04 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
305 * the storage of the external inset has been changed from
307 \begin_inset External XFig,"file.fig",""
313 \begin_inset External
316 display <display_type>
321 throwing away the final arg (here "", more generally "<string>") that holds
322 the parameters variable.
323 Variables are output if present (filename) or different from the default
324 values (display, lyxscale).
326 Moreover, the RasterImage template has been scrapped. All RasterImage
327 external insets are now converted to Graphics insets.
329 2003-05-20 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
331 * Added new space insets:
332 \SpecialChar ~ is now \InsetSpace ~
333 ERT: "\ " could be converted to InsetSpace \<space>
334 ERT: "\," could be converted to InsetSpace \,
336 2003-04-24 André Pönitz <poenitz@gmx.net>
338 * Added eqref support:
339 \begin_inset LatexCommand \eqref{label}
341 2003-03-12 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
343 * Added \\end_header to signify the end of the header in a
346 * use_amsmath is now a tristate {0 = never, 1 = auto, 2 = always}
348 2003-02-10 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
352 Added \\tracking_changes 0|1 to the header.
354 Added \\author to the header. This can be present multiple
355 times, and is of the form :
357 \\author "Real Name" email@address.com
359 Added \\change_deleted, \\change_inserted. Each of these does not
360 span a paragraph, and is delimited by "\\change_unchanged\n". Both are
363 \\change_inserted author time
365 where author is an integer ID reference into the author list in
366 the header, and time is time_t.
368 2002-10-24 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
370 * insetgraphicsParams.h (scale): is now a float, not an unsigned int.
372 2002-08-22 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
374 New graphics dialog. With the removal of buttons in the dialog, also
375 keywords in the graphics inset went. The following keywords do not
385 Only non-default values are saved to the lyx files. The defaults of the remaining
395 BoundingBox <from file>
398 rotateOrigin centerBaseline
400 subcaptionText <empty>
403 The remaining keywords have sufficient overlap with the old ones for a
404 smooth reading of the 1.2.x inset keywords in most common cases.
406 Compatibility is certainly broken for the old lyxwidth/lyxheight keywords.
407 They don't exist anymore and we can't translate them into a scaling value, while
408 we're reading the graphics inset. The old lyxwidth/lyxheight keyword and its
409 argument is ignored and lost.
411 Only few compatibility issues are left for lyx2lyx:
413 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
414 old-token new-token remove
415 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
416 size_kind original / size_type 0 scale 100 width <val>
420 size_kind width_height / size_type 1 - scale <val>
422 lyxsize_kind original / lyxsize_type 0 lyxscale 100 lyxscale <val>
423 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
424 [replace old-token by new-token, and remove any of subsequent tokens as listed]
426 If "rotate" is absent, lyx2lyx should ignore "rotateAngle <val>":
427 if ( "rotateAngle <val>" is there WITHOUT being preceded by the keyword "rotate" )
429 replace "rotateAngle <val>" by "rotateAngle 0"
432 2002-08-12 Andre' Poenitz <poenitz@gmx.de>
434 Added \lyxlock for locked math inset when written to .lyx file.
435 When "downgrading" .lyx files this should simple be deleted but it
436 does not hurt at all if it stays in. It does not have to be added
440 2002-08-02 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
442 Added a boolean "preview" flag to InsetCommandParams.
443 Currently it is written only by InsetInclude, because only this
444 class can generate a preview of its contents.
446 The LyX file now contains:
448 \begin_inset Include \input{snapshot_t=40.tex}
453 Earlier versions of LyX just swallow this extra token silently.
455 2002-08-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
457 The 1.2.0 InsetGraphicsParams "size_type" and "lyxsize_type" have been
458 renamed as "size_kind" and "lyxsize_kind" respectively.
460 \begin_inset Graphics FormatVersion 1
467 - lyxsize_kind original
468 + lyxsize_type original
