Changes (see the NEWS file for a complete list):
- Floats, footnotes and margin notes are now real insets. The
positional parameters of figure, table and algorithm floats can be set
float-by-float
- Most problems with the new table inset of 1.1.6 have been addressed
(memory consumption, file bloat, spell-checking, search and replace...).
Better longtable header/footer support was implemented.
- Notes inset can now contain arbitrary LyX constructs; they will not
appear in the output.
- New minipage inset
- New graphics inset with support for hassle-free inclusion of various
image formats (GIF, JPEG, PNG and EPS by default) and a new
rendering scheme that should fix the bugs we had with the older
ghostscript method.
- Support for natbib for bibliography citations
- The math editor has been mostly rewritten
- New ligature break special character, useful for words like
"shelfful", or many german words
- Support for parsing preamble when converting LaTeX files. Along
with changes in the LaTeX production of alignment options, this
improves round-trip work where you export a LyX document as
LaTeX, and later reimport it from LaTeX.
- Support for setting bookmarks and jumping to them
- It is possible to cycle between a label and its references.
- Preliminary support for multiple bibliographies
- Babel can be disabled
- A thesaurus facility (English only)
