1 LyX file-format changes
2 -----------------------
4 2005-01-06 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
6 * format incremented to 239.
7 * the paragraph parameters are displayed in their own line. This
8 change is consistent with the insets behaviour, and corresponds
9 to a more uniform treatment of the paragraphs since some of them
10 had already their own line.
12 An example of a single paragraph follows:
14 \begin_layout Standard
15 \paragraph_spacing single
21 2004-12-03 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
23 * format incremented to 238.
24 * The compatibility code to read old latex accents from 0.12.x in
25 InsetLatexAccent::checkContents has been removed.
26 The following translations are done:
28 "\i \xy" -> "\i \x{y}"
29 "\i \x y" -> "\i \x{y}"
30 "\i \x\i" -> "\i \x{\i}"
31 "\i \x\j" -> "\i \x{\j}"
32 x is a latex accent command, y the base character. \, i and j are
34 lyx did these changes already from 0.12.x -> 215, but not lyx2lyx,
35 so formats 215 - 237 can have both versions.
38 2004-10-10 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
40 * format incremented to 237.
41 * In the header, the following statments use now booleans values,
47 2004-08-15 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
49 * format incremented to 236.
56 * The options for \papersize are changed:
59 * All whitespaces are removed at the end of lines, when
60 not necessary. As an example we have all the lines in the header that
61 do not belong to the preamble.
63 2004-07-01 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
65 * format incremented to 235.
66 * \paperpackage had an off-by-one error. Translation table:
68 234: a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
69 235: none a4 a4wide widemarginsa4
71 The "widemarginsa4" setting of 235 has no equivalent in 234.
73 2004-05-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
75 * format incremented to 234.
76 * the citation engine is specified explicitly rather than being
80 \use_numerical_citations 0 -> \cite_engine <style>
83 where <style> is one of "basic", "natbib_authoryear",
84 "natbib_numerical" or "jurabib".
86 2004-04-29 Georg Baum <Georg.Baum@post.rwth-aachen.de>
88 * format incremented to 233.
89 * insetgraphics does not allow filenames without extension anymore.
90 The complete filename has to be given.
92 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
94 * format incremented to 232.
96 * Support for bibtopic (sectioned bibliographies).
97 - bufferparam \use_bibtopic [1|0]
98 - the bibtex inset has a second argument for bibtopic's
99 btPrint{Cited|NotCited|All} command:
101 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>]{<database>}
103 \begin_inset LatexCommand \bibtex[<style>][<btPrintX>]{<database>}
104 Forwards, there's nothing to be done. Backwards, \usepackage[dot]{bibtopic}
105 has to be inserted to the preamble. Instead of the bibtex inset, the LaTeX
106 \bibliographystyle{<style>}
107 \begin{btSect}{<database>}
112 2004-03-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
114 * format incremented to 231.
116 * Support for sidewaysfigure/sidewaystable (rotating package).
117 insetfloat has now a param \sideways [true|false] (default is false).
118 The param should be erased on downwards conversion, if it was true,
119 the inset should be replaced by
120 \begin{sidewaysfigure} <content> \end{sidewaysfigure}
122 \begin{sidewaystable} <content> \end{sidewaystable}
125 2004-02-23 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
127 * format incremented to 230.
129 * Support for a second optional argument in insetcommand.
130 currently, citation uses this to support natbibs second
131 optional argument \cite[before][after]{key}.
132 I think there's nothing to convert upwards. Downwards, the
133 commands with 2 optional args need to be converted to ERT.
135 * Support for jurabib (param \use_jurabib [1|0], default is 0).
136 When converting downwards, \usepackage{jurabib} has to be added
137 to the preamble and, if babel is used, \usepackage{babel} before
138 (jurabib fails if babel is called afterwards). If the natbib commands
139 are used together with jurabib, they have to be converted to ERT too.
141 2003-12-29 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
143 * format incremented to 229.
144 * Minipages cannot be read anymore. All minipage insets will
145 be converted to frameless box insets between 228->229.
147 2003-12-15 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
149 * format incremented to 228.
150 * Change the output of all insets derived from InsetCollapsable
151 except for InsetERT (which has a similar output already), changing lines
152 "collapsed true" -> "status collapsed"
153 "collapsed false" -> "status open".
154 * Change the output of InsetERT, changing lines
155 "status Collapsed" -> "status collapsed"
156 "status Open" -> "status open".
157 "status Inlined" -> "status inlined".
159 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
161 * format NOT incremented.
162 * add a 'draft' option to InsetExternal.
164 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
166 * format incremented to 227.
167 * Change the output of InsetBox:
168 \begin_inset Boxed -> \begin_inset Box Boxed
169 \begin_inset Doublebox -> \begin_inset Box Doublebox
170 \begin_inset Frameless -> \begin_inset Box Frameless
171 \begin_inset ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box ovalbox
172 \begin_inset Ovalbox -> \begin_inset Box Ovalbox
173 \begin_inset Shadowbox -> \begin_inset Box Shadowbox
175 2003-12-10 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
177 * format incremented to 226.
178 * Change the output of InsetNote:
179 \begin_inset Note -> \begin_inset Note Note
180 \begin_inset Comment -> \begin_inset Note Comment
181 \begin_inset Greyedout -> \begin_inset Note Greyedout
183 2003-11-28 André Pönitz
185 * Remove space_above/space_below from Paragraph.
186 This is now handled by InsetVSpace.
188 2003-10-07 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
190 * Add transformations to InsetExternal
192 boundingBox 0 0 20 20 the dimensions of the B.B..
193 Output if the B.B. is not empty.
194 clip clip the image to the B.B.
196 extra LaTeX "draft" 'extra' data passed to the primary
197 command for this output format.
198 (Possible formats LaTeX, PDFLaTeX,
199 LinuxDoc, DocBook, Ascii.)
200 The string can contain spaces and so
202 rotateAngle 30 Rotation of the data.
203 Output for non-zero rotation only.
204 rotateOrigin bottomleft Rotation origin.
205 Output for non-zero rotation and
206 non-default origin (center) only.
208 width 2cm Output only if the image is resized.
212 2003-10-07 Martin Vermeer <martin.vermeer@hut.fi>
214 * Added box inset. File format:
216 \begin_inset Ovalbox Boxed/Frameless/ovalbox/Ovalbox
221 inner_pos "b" t/c/b/s
223 width "100col%" unit+width-string
224 special "none" none/height/depth
226 height "1in" unit+width-string
227 height_special "totalheight" none/height/depth
229 collapsed false true/false
231 \begin_layout Standard
238 This box (Frameless, has_inner_box=1, use_parbox=0) replaces
239 the pre-existing Minipage inset. Parameters translate as follows:
240 position 0/1/2 -> t/c/b
241 inner_position 0/1/2/3 -> inner_pos c/t/b/s
246 2003-08-19 Michael Schmitt <michael.schmitt@teststep.org>
248 * attribute valignment="center" is replaced by valignment="middle"
249 for tabular columns and cells
251 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
253 * \the_end is replaced with \end_document
255 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@lyx.org>
257 * \layout is replaced with \begin_layout
259 2003-07-28 José Matos <jamatos@fep.up.pt>
263 * All layouts finish now with \end_layout
265 2003-06-04 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
269 * the storage of the external inset has been changed from
271 \begin_inset External XFig,"file.fig",""
277 \begin_inset External
280 display <display_type>
285 throwing away the final arg (here "", more generally "<string>") that holds
286 the parameters variable.
287 Variables are output if present (filename) or different from the default
288 values (display, lyxscale).
290 Moreover, the RasterImage template has been scrapped. All RasterImage
291 external insets are now converted to Graphics insets.
293 2003-05-20 Jürgen Spitzmüller <j.spitzmueller@gmx.de>
295 * Added new space insets:
296 \SpecialChar ~ is now \InsetSpace ~
297 ERT: "\ " could be converted to InsetSpace \<space>
298 ERT: "\," could be converted to InsetSpace \,
300 2003-03-12 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
302 * Added \\end_header to signify the end of the header in a
305 * use_amsmath is now a tristate {0 = never, 1 = auto, 2 = always}
307 2003-02-10 John Levon <levon@movementarian.org>
311 Added \\tracking_changes 0|1 to the header.
313 Added \\author to the header. This can be present multiple
314 times, and is of the form :
316 \\author "Real Name" email@address.com
318 Added \\change_deleted, \\change_inserted. Each of these does not
319 span a paragraph, and is delimited by "\\change_unchanged\n". Both are
322 \\change_inserted author time
324 where author is an integer ID reference into the author list in
325 the header, and time is time_t.
327 2002-10-24 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
329 * insetgraphicsParams.h (scale): is now a float, not an unsigned int.
331 2002-08-22 Rob Lahaye <lahaye@snu.ac.kr>
333 New graphics dialog. With the removal of buttons in the dialog, also
334 keywords in the graphics inset went. The following keywords do not
344 Only non-default values are saved to the lyx files. The defaults of the remaining
354 BoundingBox <from file>
357 rotateOrigin centerBaseline
359 subcaptionText <empty>
362 The remaining keywords have sufficient overlap with the old ones for a
363 smooth reading of the 1.2.x inset keywords in most common cases.
365 Compatibility is certainly broken for the old lyxwidth/lyxheight keywords.
366 They don't exist anymore and we can't translate them into a scaling value, while
367 we're reading the graphics inset. The old lyxwidth/lyxheight keyword and its
368 argument is ignored and lost.
370 Only few compatibility issues are left for lyx2lyx:
372 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
373 old-token new-token remove
374 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
375 size_kind original / size_type 0 scale 100 width <val>
379 size_kind width_height / size_type 1 - scale <val>
381 lyxsize_kind original / lyxsize_type 0 lyxscale 100 lyxscale <val>
382 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
383 [replace old-token by new-token, and remove any of subsequent tokens as listed]
385 If "rotate" is absent, lyx2lyx should ignore "rotateAngle <val>":
386 if ( "rotateAngle <val>" is there WITHOUT being preceded by the keyword "rotate" )
388 replace "rotateAngle <val>" by "rotateAngle 0"
391 2002-08-12 Andre' Poenitz <poenitz@gmx.de>
393 Added \lyxlock for locked math inset when written to .lyx file.
394 When "downgrading" .lyx files this should simple be deleted but it
395 does not hurt at all if it stays in. It does not have to be added
399 2002-08-02 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
401 Added a boolean "preview" flag to InsetCommandParams.
402 Currently it is written only by InsetInclude, because only this
403 class can generate a preview of its contents.
405 The LyX file now contains:
407 \begin_inset Include \input{snapshot_t=40.tex}
412 Earlier versions of LyX just swallow this extra token silently.
414 2002-08-12 Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org>
416 The 1.2.0 InsetGraphicsParams "size_type" and "lyxsize_type" have been
417 renamed as "size_kind" and "lyxsize_kind" respectively.
419 \begin_inset Graphics FormatVersion 1
426 - lyxsize_kind original
427 + lyxsize_type original
