1 LyX file-format changes
2 -----------------------
4 2006-07-03 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
6 * format incremented to 248: Basic booktabs support
8 The <features> tag has a new switch: booktabs="true|false".
9 An absent switch is equivalent to booktabs="false".
10 Horizontal lines are set with the booktabs package if this switch
13 The <row> tag of tabulars has the following new attributes:
14 topspace, bottomspace and interlinespace. All take a LyXLength
15 as value, or the special keyword "default".
17 2006-06-10 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
19 * format incremented to 247. The Grand Font Interface Rewrite.
20 (1) Split font selection to rm, sf, tt:
21 \fontscheme -> \font_roman, \font_sans, \font_typewriter
23 \fontscheme \font_roman \font_sans \font_typewriter
24 default default default default
26 times times default default

32 pslatex times (or \usepackage{pslatex})
34 \font_roman: cmr (-> \renewcommand{\rmdefault}{cmr}),
35 lmodern, charter, utopia, ccfonts, chancery, beraserif
36 (-> \usepackage{<name>})
37 \font_sans: cmss, lmss, cmbr
38 (-> \renewcommand{\sfdefault}{<name>})
39 berasans (-> \usepackage{<name>})
40 \font_typewriter: cmtt, lmtt, cmtl,
41 (-> \renewcommand{\sfdefault}{<name>})

44 (2) New param \font_default_family (rmdefault, sfdefault, ttdefault)
45 (3) New param \font_sc (true, false).
46 (4) New param \font_osf (true, false).
47 (5) New param \font_sf_scale (float)
48 (6) New param \font_tt_scale (float)
49 Support for the following fonts has been added:
50 bera, ccfonts, chancery, charter, cmbright, computer modern (explicitely),
51 courier, lmodern, luximono, utopia.
52 Support for the following font has been removed:
53 pslatex (it's superseded by mathptmx (times)).
55 2006-06-03 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
57 * format incremented to 246. The framed.sty package is
58 now supported with note types framed and shaded.
60 2005-10-12 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
62 * format incremented to 245. The \quotes_times parameter
65 2005-09-24 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
67 * format incremented to 244. Rename '\InsetSpace \,'
68 to '\InsetSpace \thinspace{}', because the comma was
69 not parsed by lyxlex, and '\InsetSpace \space' to
70 '\InsetSpace \space{}' in favour of consistency.
72 2005-07-18 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
74 * format incremented to 243.
76 * this change only affects the preamble, the paperpackage
77 option was removed and papersize is changed to default.
79 2005-06-21 Jean-Marc Lasgouttes <lasgouttes@lyx.org>
81 * format incremented to 242. There is no file format per
82 se, but the "frenchb" language has been removed from lib/language
83 and has to be translated to "french" by lyx2lyx.
85 2005-02-03 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
87 * format incremented to 241.
89 All following changes apply only to text in ERT insets. The
90 rationale is that text in ERT is simply ASCII text, and nothing more.
92 * paragraph breaks are now a single newline in latex and not a
93 paragraph break anymore (bug 698).
94 * \newline is not allowed anymore, because it is redundant (see above)
95 * layouts other than Standard, paragraph parameters and font changes
96 are not allowed anymore. They never made sense and were ignored for
97 latex output, but now they can't be read or set anymore (bug 922).
100 2005-01-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmüller@gmx.de>
102 * format incremented to 240.
104 \output_changes {true|false}
105 (should the change tracking marks be visible in the output or not?)
106 * lyx2lyx should just delete the param in 239.
108 2005-01-06 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
110 * format incremented to 239.
111 * the paragraph parameters are displayed in their own line. This
112 change is consistent with the insets behaviour, and corresponds
113 to a more uniform treatment of the paragraphs since some of them
114 had already their own line.
116 An example of a single paragraph follows:
118 \begin_layout Standard
119 \paragraph_spacing single
125 2004-12-03 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
127 * format incremented to 238.
128 * The compatibility code to read old latex accents from 0.12.x in
129 InsetLatexAccent::checkContents has been removed.
130 The following translations are done:
132 "\i \xy" -> "\i \x{y}"
133 "\i \x y" -> "\i \x{y}"
134 "\i \x\i" -> "\i \x{\i}"
135 "\i \x\j" -> "\i \x{\j}"
136 x is a latex accent command, y the base character. \, i and j are
138 lyx did these changes already from 0.12.x -> 215, but not lyx2lyx,
139 so formats 215 - 237 can have both versions.
142 2004-10-10 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
144 * format incremented to 237.
145 * In the header, the following statments use now booleans values,
151 2004-08-15 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
153 * format incremented to 236.
160 * The options for \papersize are changed:
163 * All whitespaces are removed at the end of lines, when
164 not necessary. As an example we have all the lines in the header that
165 do not belong to the preamble.
167 2004-07-01 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
169 * format incremented to 235.
170 * \paperpackage had an off-by-one error. Translation table:
172 234: a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
173 235: none a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
175 The "widemarginsa4" setting of 235 has no equivalent in 234.
177 2004-05-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
179 * format incremented to 234.
180 * the citation engine is specified explicitly rather than being
181 deduced from 3 bools.
184 \use_numerical_citations 0 -> \cite_engine <style>
187 where <style> is one of "basic", "natbib_authoryear",
188 "natbib_numerical" or "jurabib".
190 2004-04-29 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
192 * format incremented to 233.
193 * insetgraphics does not allow filenames without extension anymore.
194 The complete filename has to be given.
196 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
198 * format incremented to 232.
200 * Support for bibtopic (sectioned bibliographies).
201 - bufferparam \use_bibtopic [1|0]
202 - the bibtex inset has a second argument for bibtopic's
203 btPrint{Cited|NotCited|All} command:
205 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>]{<database>}
207 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>][<btPrintX>]{<database>}
208 Forwards, there's nothing to be done. Backwards, \usepackage[dot]{bibtopic}
209 has to be inserted to the preamble. Instead of the bibtex inset, the LaTeX
210 \bibliographystyle{<style>}
211 \begin{btSect}{<database>}
216 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
218 * format incremented to 231.
220 * Support for sidewaysfigure/sidewaystable (rotating package).
221 insetfloat has now a param \sideways [true|false] (default is false).
222 The param should be erased on downwards conversion, if it was true,
223 the inset should be replaced by
224 \begin{sidewaysfigure} <content> \end{sidewaysfigure}
226 \begin{sidewaystable} <content> \end{sidewaystable}
229 2004-02-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
231 * format incremented to 230.
233 * Support for a second optional argument in insetcommand.
234 currently, citation uses this to support natbibs second
235 optional argument \cite[before][after]{key}.
236 I think there's nothing to convert upwards. Downwards, the
237 commands with 2 optional args need to be converted to ERT.
239 * Support for jurabib (param \use_jurabib [1|0], default is 0).
240 When converting downwards, \usepackage{jurabib} has to be added
241 to the preamble and, if babel is used, \usepackage{babel} before
242 (jurabib fails if babel is called afterwards). If the natbib commands
243 are used together with jurabib, they have to be converted to ERT too.
245 2003-12-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
247 * format incremented to 229.
248 * Minipages cannot be read anymore. All minipage insets will
249 be converted to frameless box insets between 228->229.
251 2003-12-15 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
253 * format incremented to 228.
254 * Change the output of all insets derived from InsetCollapsable
255 except for InsetERT (which has a similar output already), changing lines
256 "collapsed true" -> "status collapsed"
257 "collapsed false" -> "status open".
258 * Change the output of InsetERT, changing lines
259 "status Collapsed" -> "status collapsed"
260 "status Open" -> "status open".
261 "status Inlined" -> "status inlined".
263 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
265 * format NOT incremented.
266 * add a 'draft' option to InsetExternal.
268 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
270 * format incremented to 227.
271 * Change the output of InsetBox:
272 \begin_inset Boxed -> \begin_inset Box Boxed
273 \begin_inset Doublebox -> \begin_inset Box Doublebox
274 \begin_inset Frameless -> \begin_inset Box Frameless
275 \begin_inset ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box ovalbox
276 \begin_inset Ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box Ovalbox
277 \begin_inset Shadowbox -> \begin_inset Box Shadowbox
279 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
281 * format incremented to 226.
282 * Change the output of InsetNote:
283 \begin_inset Note -> \begin_inset Note Note
284 \begin_inset Comment -> \begin_inset Note Comment
285 \begin_inset Greyedout -> \begin_inset Note Greyedout
287 2003-11-28 André Pönitz
289 * Remove space_above/space_below from Paragraph.
290 This is now handled by InsetVSpace.
292 2003-10-07 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
294 * Add transformations to InsetExternal
296 boundingBox 0 0 20 20 the dimensions of the B.B..
297 Output if the B.B. is not empty.
298 clip clip the image to the B.B.
300 extra LaTeX "draft" 'extra' data passed to the primary
301 command for this output format.
302 (Possible formats LaTeX, PDFLaTeX,
303 LinuxDoc, DocBook, Ascii.)
304 The string can contain spaces and so
306 rotateAngle 30 Rotation of the data.
307 Output for non-zero rotation only.
308 rotateOrigin bottomleft Rotation origin.
309 Output for non-zero rotation and
310 non-default origin (center) only.
312 width 2cm Output only if the image is resized.
316 2003-10-07 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
318 * Added box inset. File format:
320 \begin_inset Ovalbox Boxed/Frameless/ovalbox/Ovalbox
325 inner_pos "b" t/c/b/s
327 width "100col%" unit+width-string
328 special "none" none/height/depth
330 height "1in" unit+width-string
331 height_special "totalheight" none/height/depth
333 collapsed false true/false
335 \begin_layout Standard
342 This box (Frameless, has_inner_box=1, use_parbox=0) replaces
343 the pre-existing Minipage inset. Parameters translate as follows:
344 position 0/1/2 -> t/c/b
345 inner_position 0/1/2/3 -> inner_pos c/t/b/s
350 2003-08-19 Michael Schmitt <michael.schmitt@teststep.org>
352 * attribute valignment="center" is replaced by valignment="middle"
353 for tabular columns and cells
355 2003-08-17 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
357 * Added branch inset. File format:
359 branch definition in the header:
365 \begin_inset Branch <branchname>
366 collapsed false true/false
368 \begin_layout Standard
375 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
377 * \the_end is replaced with \end_document
379 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
381 * \layout is replaced with \begin_layout
383 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@fep.up.pt>
387 * All layouts finish now with \end_layout
389 2003-06-04 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
393 * the storage of the external inset has been changed from
395 \begin_inset External XFig,"file.fig",""
401 \begin_inset External
404 display <display_type>
409 throwing away the final arg (here "", more generally "<string>") that holds
410 the parameters variable.
411 Variables are output if present (filename) or different from the default
412 values (display, lyxscale).
414 Moreover, the RasterImage template has been scrapped. All RasterImage
415 external insets are now converted to Graphics insets.
417 2003-05-20 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
419 * Added new space insets:
420 \SpecialChar ~ is now \InsetSpace ~
421 ERT: "\ " could be converted to InsetSpace \<space>
422 ERT: "\," could be converted to InsetSpace \,
424 2003-04-24 André Pönitz <poenitz@gmx.net>
426 * Added eqref support:
427 \begin_inset LatexCommand \eqref{label}
429 2003-03-14 Dekel Tsur
431 * Format bumped to 223.
433 2003-03-12 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
435 * Added \\end_header to signify the end of the header in a
438 * use_amsmath is now a tristate {0 = never, 1 = auto, 2 = always}
440 2003-02-10 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
444 Added \\tracking_changes 0|1 to the header.
446 Added \\author to the header. This can be present multiple
447 times, and is of the form :
449 \\author "Real Name" email@address.com
451 Added \\change_deleted, \\change_inserted. Each of these does not
452 span a paragraph, and is delimited by "\\change_unchanged\n". Both are
455 \\change_inserted author time
457 where author is an integer ID reference into the author list in
458 the header, and time is time_t.
460 2002-10-24 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
462 * insetgraphicsParams.h (scale): is now a float, not an unsigned int.
464 2002-08-22 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
466 New graphics dialog. With the removal of buttons in the dialog, also
467 keywords in the graphics inset went. The following keywords do not
477 Only non-default values are saved to the lyx files. The defaults of the remaining
487 BoundingBox <from file>
490 rotateOrigin centerBaseline
492 subcaptionText <empty>
495 The remaining keywords have sufficient overlap with the old ones for a
496 smooth reading of the 1.2.x inset keywords in most common cases.
498 Compatibility is certainly broken for the old lyxwidth/lyxheight keywords.
499 They don't exist anymore and we can't translate them into a scaling value, while
500 we're reading the graphics inset. The old lyxwidth/lyxheight keyword and its
501 argument is ignored and lost.
503 Only few compatibility issues are left for lyx2lyx:
505 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
506 old-token new-token remove
507 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
508 size_kind original / size_type 0 scale 100 width <val>
512 size_kind width_height / size_type 1 - scale <val>
514 lyxsize_kind original / lyxsize_type 0 lyxscale 100 lyxscale <val>
515 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
516 [replace old-token by new-token, and remove any of subsequent tokens as listed]
518 If "rotate" is absent, lyx2lyx should ignore "rotateAngle <val>":
519 if ( "rotateAngle <val>" is there WITHOUT being preceded by the keyword "rotate" )
521 replace "rotateAngle <val>" by "rotateAngle 0"
524 2002-08-12 Andre' Poenitz <poenitz@gmx.de>
526 Added \lyxlock for locked math inset when written to .lyx file.
527 When "downgrading" .lyx files this should simple be deleted but it
528 does not hurt at all if it stays in. It does not have to be added
532 2002-08-02 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
534 Added a boolean "preview" flag to InsetCommandParams.
535 Currently it is written only by InsetInclude, because only this
536 class can generate a preview of its contents.
538 The LyX file now contains:
540 \begin_inset Include \input{snapshot_t=40.tex}
545 Earlier versions of LyX just swallow this extra token silently.
547 2002-08-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
549 The 1.2.0 InsetGraphicsParams "size_type" and "lyxsize_type" have been
550 renamed as "size_kind" and "lyxsize_kind" respectively.
552 \begin_inset Graphics FormatVersion 1
559 - lyxsize_kind original
560 + lyxsize_type original
