We are proud to announce the release of LyX 2.1.3. This is the third
maintenance release in the 2.1.x series.
LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based
on the structure of your documents and not simply their appearance. It is
released under a Free and Open Source Software license.
You can download LyX 2.1.3 from http://www.lyx.org/Download/.
LyX 2.1.3 is the result of on-going efforts to make our stable version
even more reliable and stable. We have fixed a number of bugs and made
a number of improvements. These are detailed below. We strongly encourage
all LyX users to upgrade to this version.
If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.1.3, open a bug report at
http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome. If you're not sure whether it
really is a bug, you can e-mail the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel
<at> lists.lyx.org) and ask.
If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the
documentation that comes with LyX and the LyX wiki, which lives at
http://wiki.lyx.org/. If you can't find the answer there, e-mail the LyX
users' list (lyx-users <at> lists.lyx.org).
We hope you enjoy using LyX 2.1.3.

What's new
==========
** Updates:
***********
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
- Add support for some conference poster classes (a0poster, beamerposter,
sciposter) (bug 8714).
- Add support for the sectionbox and tcolorbox packages (part of bug 8714).
- Add support for PDF annotations (via pdfcomment package) (bug 6975).
* TEX2LYX IMPROVEMENTS
- Support for bibliographies using the package bibtopic.
- Support for textual references (LaTeX-command \namref from the package
nameref).
- Support for items in itemize environments that have an optional argument.
- Support for the math font of the Iwona and Kurier font families.
- Support for the Libertine fonts.
- Support for a relative length as paragraph separation.
- Support for relative lengths in horizontal and vertical spaces.
- Support for glue lengths in horizontal and vertical spaces.
* USER INTERFACE
- References no longer truncated in outliner (bug 9312).
- Allow computing selected subformulas with computer algebra systems.
- Number correctly footnotes in title layouts (part of bug 2666).
- Ctrl+A is now bound to inset-select-all, which does a local
selection (current inset) and grows at each new invokation. Try it!
- Debug options in message pane are now sorted alphabetically.
* DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION
- New example file "PDF-comment.lyx" describing the support for PDF
annotations.
- Updated Arabic, French, German, Japanese, Portuguese, Slovak and Swedish
user interface localization.
** Bug fixes:
*************
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
- Fix crash on exporting a recursive math macro (bug 9140). Recursive macros
are invalid, so typesetting will still fail with "TeX capacity exceeded".
- Fix baseline calculation in last paragraph (bug 9231).
- Fix export of xfig external insets (bug 9244).
- Fix incorrect output of ampersands when multiple keys are given for a
citation (bug 9296).
- Output package options (specified with PackageOptions layout tag)
before loading any potentially affected package (bug 9355).
- Fix export of documents that use the LaTeX-packages mhchem and wasysym
(bug 9266).
- Remove unnecessary preamble code in LaTeX export of documents using the
class REVTeX 4.1 file (bug 4625).
- Fix for improper environment with duplicate PATH variable entries.
This happens on Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) where launchd(8) passes
such an environment to LyX when started from the dock (bug 9317).
- Protect insets when needed in subfloat captions (bug 9346).
- Do not swallow spaces in text-in-math mode (bug 7970).
- Do not insert a protected space after some math-spaces (bug 9319).
- Fix problem when some special characters appear in the document directory
name on Windows (bug 9342).
* LYX2LYX
- Fix import of LyX 2.0 documents with complex beamer arguments (bug 9254).
- Fix import of LyX 2.0 IEEEtran documents (bug 9273).
- Fix import of Chunk layout with trailing empty paragraph (bug 9298).
- Fix import of chunk layouts containing newlines (bug 9300).
- Maintain paragraph settings (alignment etc.) when importing chunk layouts
(bug 9320).
- Fix export to LyX 2.0 of chunk insets without optional argument (bug
9343).
- Fix import of ERT beamer block titles which are preceeded by a
language switch.
- Fix and simplify paragraph params parsing in get_containing_layout.
* USER INTERFACE
- Fix alignment rendering of multirow in LyX (bug 8976).
- Fix mapping of ISO_Left_Tab key, which was erroneously assigned to Tab
(instead of BackTab).
- Disallow to insert program listings to footnotes and margin notes (bug
9321).
- Fix computer algebra system computations in formulas with '=' signs.
- Fix rendering of \varOmega on OS X (bug 7954).
- Only allow 1 paragraph in footnotes when they are part of a title
layout (bug 2666).
- When switching classes, warn user about all unapplied document changes
(1. part of bug 9356).
- When adding a module, warn user about all unapplied document changes
(2. part of bug 9356).
- Do not enable the Apply button in the document dialog just because a
module was selected in the widget (without actual change) (bug 9365).
- Fix logic of "Maintain aspect ratio" checkbox in the graphics dialog
(bug 9357).
- Fix most frequent reason for crash while editing with open view source
window (bug 9336).
- Fix crash when pasting citation into math formula (bug 9302).
* INTERNALS
- Fix wrong test in LyX server.
- Fix possible memory corruption on copying to the clipboard.
- Fix possible memory corruption during LaTeX log file parsing.
- Make some math messages translatable (bug 1908).
* DOCUMENTATION AND LOCALIZATION
- Fix language settings for all IEEEtran templates (bug 9350).
- The template document for REVTeX 4.1 has been rewritten.
* LYXHTML
- Fix export of \ll, \gg, \ne and \neq in math formulas (bug 9372).
* TEX2LYX
- Do not ignore table columns with unknown column specifiers (bug 9311).
- Parse tikzpicture environment correctly (bug 9011).
- Fix misparsing of \textgreek without polyglossia (bug 8553).
- Parse post command argument insets (bug 8473).
