GNOME LaTeX NEWS

Release 3.40.0, 2022-05-02
--------------------------
* Documentation improvement.

Release 3.39.1, 2022-04-21
--------------------------
* The project is now hosted at: https://gitlab.gnome.org/swilmet/gnome-latex

Release 3.38.0, 2020-09-11
--------------------------
* Translation updates.

Release 3.37.2, 2020-05-29
--------------------------
* User-visible changes:
 - New application icon! Thanks to Brian Snider.
 - Use Tepl for the 'go to line' feature.
 - Create the Edit toolbar with Amtk. This fixes the problem with some buttons
   doing nothing when clicked (for the buttons containing a secondary arrow
   button that displays a menu; now the two buttons are merged).
 - Translation updates.

* Under the hood changes:
 - The LaTeX and Math menus are now created with Amtk, not with GtkUIManager.
 - Rewrite some code in C in the liblatexila, to have less Vala code.
 - App icon: rename to org.gnome.gnome-latex.

Release 3.37.1, 2020-04-24
--------------------------
* User-visible changes:
 - Use TeplPanel to create the side panel. This changes the UI for switching
   between side panel components, it's now like a toolbar (so only a single
   click is needed), before it was with a GtkComboBox list (so with two
   clicks).
 - Search and Go to line: better style for the text entry's not-found state.
 - More beautiful close buttons at some places.
 - Use some Tepl I/O error info bars.
 - Translation updates.

* Under the hood changes:
 - Port to TeplMetadata.
 - Use TeplStatusbar.
 - Use TeplStyleSchemeChooserWidget in the preferences dialog.
 - Subclass TeplAbstractFactory, not TeplAbstractFactoryVala.
 - Move more utility functions to Tepl.
 - Remove some dead code.
 - Remove no longer useful code related to stock icons.
 - New classes in the liblatexila (so in C): LatexilaFactory, LatexilaSettings.
 - Statistics for the Vala code, compared to version 3.36.0:
	- 4 fewer *.vala files.
	- 579 fewer Vala lines of code.

Release 3.36.0, 2020-03-31, “Corona”
------------------------------------

* Translation updates.

Release 3.32.0, 2019-03-10, “Raging Storm”
------------------------------------------
* Apply GNOME goal “App menu retirement”:
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/Initiatives/issues/4
* Have a much better (and you'll see, familiar :-) ) icon for GNOME LaTeX.
  Take advantage of the GNOME goal “App Icon Redesign”:
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/Initiatives/issues/2
* Copyright of GNOME LaTeX: 2009-2019, 10 years!!
* What else is new? Ah, yes, I've merged the old Git repository for the first
  versions (0.0.1 to 0.2), for historic purposes. If you look at the code, one
  thing that you can realize is that there was really a lack of good
  documentation for how to write a GTK+ app in C, something that I've now fixed
  by writing this guide: https://people.gnome.org/~swilmet/glib-gtk-book/
* Translation updates.

Release 3.30.2, 2018-08-05
--------------------------

--------------------------
* Change go-to-line shortcut from Ctrl+G to Ctrl+L.
* Adapt some Vala code to make it work with valac >= 0.42.
* Translation updates.

Release 3.28.1, 2018-05-20
--------------------------
* Warning for packagers:
  For the Vala code you must keep the generated C code from the tarball,
  because if the C code is re-generated with valac >= 0.41 then gnome-latex
  will have various crashes.

* New configure build option: --disable-dconf-migration, intended to be used
  only on OSes where dconf cannot be installed.

* Translation updates.

Release 3.28.0, 2018-04-08
--------------------------
* Changes for packagers:
 - New dependency: dconf.

Release 3.18.1, 2015-11-08
--------------------------
* After some GTK+ changes during the last few releases, there were some
  regressions in LaTeXila. Because of the overlay scrollbars, it was not
  possible to select some characters with the mouse. And when (1) line numbers
  are not displayed and (2) the side panel is visible, it is not possible to
  move the cursor before the first character of a line (with the mouse),
  because at that region of the screen the mouse permits to change the size of
  the side panel…
  So to avoid those regressions:
	* Overlay scrolling is disabled at some places
	* Line numbers are now displayed by default

* Added Portuguese translation
* Added Ukrainian help translation

* Via the Tools menu, the spell checking settings can be changed and are stored
  on a file-by-file basis.
* There is now a spell checker dialog window, to spell check an entire file
  word-by-word. (the “inline” spell checker is still present, where misspelled
  words are highlighted with a red wavy underline).
* Ensure that the personal build tools and the templates are correctly saved.
* Other various small improvements and bug fixes
* Translation updates
