1 !Important Changes in LyX 2.3.0
6 * LyX now has "inverted" branch insets, which output their contents just in
7 case a given branch is not "activated". This makes inclusion of alternate
8 material in different versions easier.
10 * When inserting a command or symbol in mathed, it is now automatically
11 wrapped in a real inset (either \text or \ensuremath) assuring the correct
12 mode, instead of being wrapped only in the output. The wrapping inset can
13 be safely dissolved, as it will be automatically inserted at export time
17 !!!The following pref variables were added in 2.3:
20 !!!The following pref variables were changed in 2.3:
23 Default is changed to ".". The best guess for where the user wants to save
24 or find files is the directory the user started LyX from. Before, the
25 default was always the home directory. If desired, the old behavior can be
26 restored by changing the default path in Preferences > "Working directory".
29 !!!The following pref variables are obsoleted in 2.3:
32 !!!The following new LyX functions have been introduced in 2.3:
35 Toggles inversion status of branch inset.
38 Activates the LyX window. Useful in combination with reverse search.
41 !!!The following LyX functions have been changed in 2.3:
44 The function now has a second and third optional argument to specify
45 the side (left, right, auto) and quotation mark style (english, swedish,
46 german, polish, french, danish).
49 This function now also applies to quote insets. It takes a three-character
50 string as an argument, refering (1.) to the style (e = ``english'',
51 s = ''swedish'', g = ,,german``, p = ,,polish'', f = <<french>>, a = >>danish<<),
52 (2.) to the side (l = left, r = right) and (3.) to the quotation level
53 (s = single, d = double). So "eld" means "English left double quotation mark".
54 A dot in the string means: take the current value. So "inset-modify changetype e.."
55 will only change the style to English, while letting side and level as is,
56 "inset-modify changetype f.s" will change the style to French and the level to
57 single, leaving the side value.
59 This function is most useful when combined with inset-forall. E.g.,
60 "inset-forall Quotes inset-modify changetype f.."
61 => change all quote insets to French style, maintaining current side and level
62 "inset-forall Quotes inset-modify changetype ..s"
63 => change all quote insets to single quotes, keeping style and level
64 "inset-forall Quotes inset-modify changetype g.s"
65 => change all quote insets to German single quotes, keeping left/right setting
68 !!!The following LyX documents have been moved in 2.3:
71 !!!The following metadata files have been added to the tarball in 2.3:
74 !!Changes with respect to external programs and libraries in 2.3:
76 * Inkscape SVG with separate LaTeX + PDF output is experimentally supported.
78 * Add some editor/viewer applications to (re)configure checks.
80 !!Known issues in version 2.3.0
83 !!Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 2.3.x
