+
+** Bug fixes:
+*************
+
+* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
+
+- Fix LaTeX import of aligned consecutive paragraphs (bug 4806).
+
+- Fix font size handling when importing LaTeX files (bug 4803 and
+ bug 4807).
+
+- After an inset, don't always revert to the language's default encoding
+ for latex output, but honor that specified in the document settings
+ (bug 4665).
+
+- Close font macros (such as \emph) before comments, greyedout, framed
+ and shaded notes, thus fixing a problem where documents couldn't be
+ compiled anymore.
+
+- Fix LaTeX error "unknown color 'ignore'" when setting text style
+ attributes in mathed (bug 4091).
+
+- Assure amsthm is loaded if a theorem is defined with \theoremstyle.
+
+- Fix LaTeX errors triggered by switching from ams article to ams plain
+ article.
+
+- Fix drawing of top and bottom rules in formal tables (bug 4554).
+
+- Fix reversion of OHM and ANGSTROM characters to LyX < 1.5.0 (rest of
+ bug 3313).
+
+- Check for the LaTeX packages "nicefrac" and "units" that are used by
+ LyX.
+
+- Check for PDF->PS, PDF->EPS and PS->EPS converters and use them (bug
+ 3968).
+
+- Stop warning messages when a local layout file is opened. Fix bugs
+ caused by incorrect reloading of local layout files.
+
+- Use verbose htlatex command instead of oolatex, if available, since the
+ latter caused problems on some systems (bug 4604).
+
+- Use package amsbsy for bold math symbols obtained through the \boldsymbol
+ macro, such that bold super and subscripts have the correct size even
+ when not using the complete amsmath package.
+
+- Fix loading of lyx documents generated with csv2lyx (bug 4639).
+
+- Move \label{} outside of listings option caption={} because the listings
+ package prefers a separate label={} option.
+
+- Set the correct encoding when an ASCII encoded LaTeX file is imported
+ (bug 4719).
+
+- Parse the command \makebox correctly when importing LaTeX files
+ (bug 2504).
+
+- Import global paragraph settings correctly when importing LaTeX files
+ (bug 4773).
+
+- Use style guide-conforming headings in the APA layout (bug 4827).
+
+
+* USER INTERFACE:
+
+- Fix a crash on startup with Qt 4.4 (bug 4568).
+
+- Fix a crash that occured on some OSes when the character '{' was
+ inserted in the advanced input of the listings dialog (bug 4780).
+
+- Fix an assertion with compressed image files that do not have a
+ zip-extension.
+
+- Fix an assertion with incorrect argument for '-sysdir' command-line
+ switch (bug 4791).
+
+- Correctly apply font changes when several math matrix cells are selected
+ (bug 4566).
+
+- Allow deleting a label in a formula as well as the numbering with the
+ delete key (bug 2556).
+
+- Allow to enter starred math commands such as \tag* (bug 4584).
+
+- Load amsmath when \tag or \tag* is used (bug 4586).
+
+- Fix parameter input of the math commands \makebox and \framebox (bug
+ 2461).
+
+- When cutting a selection do not leave a dangling paragraph (bug 3995).
+
+- Improve the behaviour when inserting a collapsable inset over a multi-
+ paragraph selection.
+
+- Fix the automatic uncollapsing of outliner during updates (bug 3740).
+
+- Correctly handle quotation marks in command preferences (bug 2016).
+
+- Remove the menu entries to swap rows/columns as this feature is not
+ implemented.
+
+- Fix wrong focusing of buttons in search dialog (bug 4194).
+
+- Disallow some Note variants in places where they would result in LaTeX
+ errors (part of bug 4180).
+
+- Use *.* to select all files in the file selection dialog on Windows.
+ Using shortcuts for navigation is now possible.
+
+- Fix \Vert symbol in the math panel (part of bug 4720).
+
+- correct numbering inside multiline environments (bug 518).
+
+- Fix typo in the script TeXFiles.py that scans for TeX files.
+
+- Remove the menu entry Insert -> Math -> Toggle math panels, since
+ it actually does not insert anything and its functionality is covered
+ by menu View - > Toolbars -> Math Panels (bug 4765).
+
+
+* DOCUMENTATION
+
+- Fix LaTeX errors in the Spanish Tutorial, UserGuide, and Intro manual.
+
+- Math manual:
+ - correct shortcuts for math fonts in section 11.1
+ - fix the description of the command \tag in section 19.4
+
+- Man page: document -geometry option, update Copyright date (bug 4740).
+
+- The tex2lyx man page was completely outdated and referred to reLyX in many
+ places (bug 2770). It has been cleaned up, but it is still outdated in
+ details.
+
+
+* BUILD/INSTALLATION:
+
+- fix the 'make check' target in src/support; one of the checks still
+ fails (bug 4638)
+
+- fix the problems with compilation on gcc 4.3.0 with disabled pch headers.
+
+- fix some compilation warnings.
