+TpX modifications log file
+=========================================
+ [+] Added, [-] Fixed, [*] Changed
+=========================================
+
+=========================================
+2008-12-07 TpX Version 1.5
+=========================================
+
+[-] Command line export to latexsrc and pdflatexsrc
+ did not add '.tex' extension to output file name.
+
+[-] A bug in undo for freehand lines.
+
+[-] Grouped objects lost their parent drawing (arrow-heads were
+ drawn incorrectly for objects in a group),
+
+[-] Table editor in the "Edit coordinates" window was too narrow
+ leading sometimes to disappearance of table columns.
+
+=========================================
+2008-11-17 TpX Version 1.5 beta 2
+=========================================
+
+[-] Fixed problems with TeXLive.
+
+[-] There was a bug which caused TpX not to load the new
+ document properties at program start.
+
+[+] preview.tex.inc was simplified. TpX now adds the packages it
+ needs automatically. Unneeded packages are not added now
+ to preview document.
+
+[*] MetaPost output does not use \textcolor in TeX text anymore.
+
+[-] preserveAspectRatio='none' was not added when needed while
+ writing bitmap to SVG.
+
+[+] Freehand-drawn Bezier path is created with current properties
+ applied to it.
+
+=========================================
+2008-11-09 TpX Version 1.5 beta
+=========================================
+
+[+] Now it is possible to use the default font size of the parent
+ LaTeX document by setting FontSizeInTeX property to 0
+ (\fontsize...\selectfont would not be added to LaTeX code).
+
+[-] PicMagnif was not taken into account when setting
+ font size in MetaPost
+
+[*] Lua module for generating TpX files (lTpX)
+ replaced the old Python module (TpXpy)
+
+[*] New version of TpX file format, version 5. Treatment
+ of dotted lines has changed incompatibly (see below).
+
+[*] Vertical alignment of text proved to be unreliable
+ and hard to be made compatible across devices.
+ All text labels are now baseline aligned.
+
+[+] More properties of graphical objects can be changed
+ using toolbar (for all selected objects at once):
+ arrow-heads, text labels, stars.
+
+[-] WinEdt command in 'TpX_menu.dat' fixed to work correctly in
+ "soft breaks" regime
+
+[+] Saving preview source
+
+[+] Picking up, applying and clearing properties of graphical objects
+
+[+] Improved SVG import
+
+[+] Store "Snap to grid" and "Angular snap" state
+
+[+] Store full window position including "maximized" state
+
+[+] Objects group/ungroup operations.
+
+[+] "Simplify Bezier" operation
+
+[+] Bitmap objects (sam2p utility is used to convert bitmaps to EPS
+ for inclusion into PostScript output)
+
+[+] Request for showing (as a temporary file) the actual source
+ (if drawing has changed)
+
+[-] Some objects did not show up on rubber canvas during drag / rotate
+ transformation operations
+
+[+] 'Grid on top' setting
+
+[+] Optionally remove crosshair
+
+[-*] Fix for Bezier paths with PSTricks output. Use \moveto
+ and \curveto instead of \psbezier
+
+[*] Use dimen=middle for circles and sectors in PSTricks
+
+[*] Set dashadjust=false in PSTricks for compatibility with other
+ output formats
+
+[*] Dots in dotted lines are now square (they where rectangular).
+ When loading old TpX files the width of dotted lines is
+ adjusted to make them somewhat more similar to the previous
+ appearance.
+
+[+*] Freehand Bezier curve instead of freehand polyline
+
+[+] "Delete small objects" operation
+
+[-] Fixed latexeps, latexpdf and latexcustom export for
+pgf/tikz (images were too wide in some situations)
+
+=========================================
+2007-08-04 TpX Version 1.4
+=========================================
+

+
+[+*] Output formats (LaTeX picture, PSTricks, PGF, TikZ, MetaPost)
+ use the same coordinates as TpX drawing. This is useful for
+ generating code
+
+[+] TikZ output format
