This was a regression from 2.1.x. I failed to copy the horrible hack that was present for the special case of () in Hebrew.
There is a real need for someone who understands RTL language stuff to fix this. Currently () are wrong in .lyx files IMO. We should not have to swap them for display.

Consistency of ellipses across the UI
Use the function support:truncateWithEllipsis() to shorten a docstring with
... at the end. Actually we use U+2026 HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS instead of "..." when
automatically shortening strings. This is to be consistent with Qt's own
truncation and is much nicer on the screen.
This includes the bugs #9575 and #9572 regarding broken text elision in the
outliner.
Known issues (non-regressions):
* TocBackend::updateItem() should be rewritten to update all TOCs. (#8386)
* "..." should be replaced with … everywhere else on the interface (including
translation strings).
* We should prefer to rely on QFontMetrics::elidedText() to truncate strings
with an ellipsis whenever possible, or an equivalent for the buffer view
dependent on the font metrics. See the warning in src/support/lstrings.h.
Improvements to cursor highlighting in the source panel
* TexRow now computes rows from a DocIterator. In practice, the cursor
highlighting is now correct inside insets, it is no longer restricted to the
topmost level. It certainly also makes forward-search more precise.
* Added the option to disable a texrow when not needed, for perf.
* Fixed a bug where the last paragraph was not properly highlighted.
Limitations:
* TexRow still does not handle: math (e.g. multi-cell), sub-captions, inset
arguments.
* New TOC "math-macro". This means that math macros can now be accessed in the
outline pane in their order of appearance or in alphabetical order, and can be
searched using the filter.
* Lists of floats now show subfloats deeper in the navigation menu
* The arbitrary 30 element cut-off after which nothing is shown except "Open
Navigator..." is removed. Menus now have no limit in size, so Qt may display
them scrollable. In exchange, we always show "Open outliner..." at the
beginning. I tested for performance issues with a rather complex document and
it is fine; but this does not exclude corner cases with lots of TOC entries of
a certain kind. If necessary, populating the navigation sub-menu should be
delayed like the main menu.
* Elements that do not contribute to the output (e.g. in a note, a disabled
branch) are now preceded with a symbol indicating this status. (The machinery
was already there; I wonder why it was not implemented already.) I have chosen
U+274E NEGATIVE SQUARED CROSS MARK.
* Fix the contextual menus in the outliner (bug introduced at 94e992c5).
* Toc item now move to the caption when present, but first center on the float,
to prevent the situation where the caption is at the top of the screen and the
contents of the float is off-screen above the caption.
(Internally, the action of the toc items can now be customised)
* Fix the LyXHTML output. Disabled captions no longer appear in the list of
figures.

Fix bugs #6078 and #9364
Remove unwanted clearSelection()s in MathData::updateMacros(). These calls broke
text selection with keyboard and mouse, search-and-replace, restoring selection
after Undo, etc. in a document with math macros since 1.6.0. (Regression at 6aa54673 and 12314897)
I do not know the purpose of these calls, but the selection code has been worked
on since, and I cannot produce undesired behaviour after removing
them.
Rewrite Cursor::getSurroundingPos without Bidi class
New method TextMetrics::findRowElement, excerpted from CursorX.
Reimplement getSurroundingPos using Row information. This is easy when
the cursor is inside a row element. At row element edges, different
situations can occur; hopefully all these situations are taken into
account.
Rename the old getSurroundingPos to getSurroundingPosOrig and
transform getSurroundingPos into a wrapper that compares the two
methods. This will be removed when we are confident that the new
function is equivalent to the old one.
It will then be possible to remove also the Bidi class (at last!).
Only enable std::regex when the header <regex> is present (fix Mac OS X issue).
Remove support for concept checks. The page
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/concept_checking.html
says about concept checking:
Please note that the checks are based on the requirements in the
original C++ standard, many of which were relaxed in the C++11
standard and so valid C++11 code may be incorrectly rejected by the
concept checks. Additionally, some correct C++03 code might be
rejected by the concept checks, for example template argument types
may need to be complete when used in a template definition, rather
than at the point of instantiation. There are no plans to address
these shortcomings.
Therefore it seems reasonable to remove our support for this.
Give a warning when system boost and stdlib-debug are used together
In general this would lead to an immediate runtime crash because the
runtime checks of libstdc++ change the layout of some STL objects.
Therefore, this will only work when the boost libraries have been
compiled with this same flag. At this time, it is not known whether
any linux distribution contains such libraries.
- the long awaited MiKTeX installer is available, this fixes many installation errors in LyX is installed for the first time (I will provide a new installer build as soon as I find more time)

Refuse to run tex2lyx tests with in-source builds
As Günter found out running the tex2lyx tests overwrites the test references
if the build directory is identical to the source directory. Therefore the

should have failed. Since it is better anyway to build in a separate directory
we simply do not support srcdir = builddir for the tests and abort with an

Improvements to the display of the source.
Fix bugs #6501 and #7359.
* Selection highlighting has been broken since a conflict with
reverse-search was repaired (at 00a62b7c), is now fixed.
* The selection highlighting was not accurate, for LaTeX formats (in
full source view), and meaningless, for non LaTeX formats.
* fix regression at cc00b9aa: force_getcontent_ was always true
therefore the code to detect changes in the generated source was
dead. The consequence is that the source view would jump to the
beginning at each updateView() even if no change occurred. Cc00b9aa
was meant to fix #5600, which I cannot reproduce with the new
implementation.
* Various improvements:
* When the position-to-line conversion is unavailable (LyXHTML, LyX
source, etc.) we focus on the first difference instead.
* Get some space around the cursor
* Respect the scrollbars
* Highlight with QTextEdit::ExtraSelections instead of cursor
selection (the latter used to break syntax highlighting of the
TeX code... which was not so much of an issue before because the
wrong part was selected)
Known issues:
* The highlighting is off by one line in very last paragraph of a
document. This appears to be a bug in TexRow.cpp.
* The highlighting is off for any kind of inset. This could be
solved by adapting TexRow so that it accepts CursorSlices as
and argument for the conversion to line number. (this is bug
#4725)
Improve the performance of the source panel by using a QTimer.
Fix bug #9493. The source panel was very slow with auto-update on. Now
we use a timer that ensures that the source is generated only at
rest. The delay is short or long depending on whether we show the
source of a paragraph or the whole source.
