Re: LyX 2.0.2 Released

2011-12-05 Thread Richard Heck



On windows7, LyX 2.0.2's scrolling is somehow broken to me. LyX.exe 
takes 50% CPU (my machine is dual-core, so 50% CPU is max for many 
programs), triggers CPU fan to max, and is very laggy (non smooth).


2.0.1, with both installers (official and Uwe's) has no such issue and 
scrolls smoothly.


Even small documents trigger this, e.g. the "Introduction" to LyX.

OS: Win7 32 bits, professional.


Is anyone else seeing this on Windows?

Make a backup of your profile dir, upgrade LyX, then figure out where
to put your old config, if at all needed. (Linux user.)

I believe the answer to this question is "yes", since the user directory is
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\LyX2.0
which does not appear to be specific to 2.0.0.

So if the answer to the above is "yes", what do you (or others) recommend?

Well, on Linux, it's just not an issue. You install it, and it works out
of the box. I don't know about Windows. The question is just: Does LyX
2.0.2 use the same user directory as 2.0.0 did? If not, then copy the
old one over the new one.

  I've been building and installing LyX with the SlackBuild script for about
8 years. Just upgraded from -2.0.1 to -2.0.2 on Slackware-13.1 with no
problems.

This is excellent news and I look forward to the improvements.

Is there a recommended procedure for updating from 2.0.0? I have made
some customizations (shortcuts, added modules, etc.) that I would like
to retain if possible.

Many thanks in advance.

What's new in LyX 2.0.2
===

There have been several improvements to LyX's ability to export documents
in the background, so the program does not freeze during compilation. We
hope to continue these improvements throughout the 2.0.x series.

There have been major updates to the tex2lyx conversion script. Please see
below for the details.

The ctex document classes, used for Chinese documents, are now supported
by LyX.

Support for the Springer document classes has been updated for compatibility
with the latest versions. This has the side-effect that files, created with
LyX 2.0.2 or future, using a Springer document class, will not be
compilable
with LyX versions older than LyX 2.0.2. The same applies for files created
with LyX 1.6.10 or older that are saved with LyX 2.0.2 or future.


What's new
==

** Updates:
***

* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT

- Completely revised support for the latest versions of the Springer
  document classes svjour3, svmono and svmult.

- Add possibility to export the R code from a sweave-enabled document
  (part of bug 7555).

- XHTML export now respects font color and background color from
  Document->Settings->Colors.

- Added support for ctex document classes (bug 7495).


** TEX2LYX IMPROVEMENTS

- tex2lyx (that is used to import TeX files) now produces the current
  file format 413.

- tex2lyx now supports the conversion of:

  * The font packages utopia, fourier, ccfonts, chancery and beraserif.

  * Documents where no language package is set, or if a language package
are set that work independently of babel and polyglossia.

  * The setting of the document-wide background color and text color
(\color, \pagecolor), the background color of shaded boxes and the
text color of greyed-out notes.

  * Horizontal lines (\rule).

  * Phantom spaces (\phantom, \hphanton, \vphantom).

  * Custom width for nomenclature list (\printnomenclature).

  * All types of underlined or striked out text.

  * Hyperlinks (\href).

  * Rotated floats (sidewaysfigure, sidewaystable).

  * Wrapped floats (wrapfigure, wraptable) (bug 4378).

  * Subfloats (\subfloat).

  * Frameless boxes (\makebox). (\mbox is not yet supported by LyX.)

  * Command \date{} in the preamble to suppress the date output.

- Augmented the tex2lyx --help message with the default paths (bug 6827).


* USER INTERFACE

- New menu entry Edit->Select Whole Inset.

- Speed up cursor movement when inline completion is enabled in math.

- Make InsetInfo output a path matching the LaTeX compiler.

- Improve creation of a LyX archive. Now also the files referenced in ERT
  in the document body (e.g., through \input or \insertgraphics) are
  included in the archive.

- When changing the document language, also change the language of the
  text which is not explicitly marked in a different language,
  irrespective of the multilingual status, except for LTR<=>RTL changes.

- New command-line switch -v (--version) for tex2lyx showing build
  information and version number (bug 6827).


* DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION

- The LyX documentation covers now all new features of LyX 2.0.x; the
  User's guide, EmbeddedObjects and the Math manual have been revised
  accordingly.

- Updated French, German, Indonesian, Interlingua, Italian, Japanese,
  Norwegian (Bokmål), Slovak, Spanish, Swedish and Ukrainian user
  interface localization.

- Revised template files for the Springer document classes.

- Revised example file sweave.lyx.

- New appendix in the EmbeddedObjects manual with list of available
  colors and new section about the calculation of table widths.

- New example file spreadsheet.lyx.


* BUILD/INSTALLATION

- Add background image for Mac OS X disk image.



** Bug fixes:
