It now handles included eps files + which do not conform to the PostScript file description format (for example files generated by Matlab). + </p> + + <h3>Version 2_01</h3> + <p> + This minor release fixes two <a href="bugs.html">bugs</a>. + </p> + + <h3>Version 2_0</h3> + <ul> + <li>All known <a href="bugs.html">bugs</a> are fixed. + </li> + <li>iTe is now much more user friendly.

Objects can be selected + with the mouse. + </li> + <li> + Handles even huge included eps-files. If the size of an + eps-file exceeds a certain threshold, the user has the option + to only display a bounding box. + </li> + <li> + The dimensional argument (xdim,ydim) of the <em>iteblock</em> + environment is now optional. If omitted, the block + automatically adapts its size to include all of its objects. + </li> + <li> + The parsing of the PostScript code is now done with Perl, + not by (X)Emacs anymore. This improves speed and requires less + memory. + </li> + </ul> + + <p></p> + + <h3>Incompatibilities</h3> + + <ul> + <li> For LaTeX, iTe is now loaded via <tt>\usepackage{ite}</tt>, + and <b>not</b> via <tt>\input ite</tt>. + </li> + <li> The + <tt>\grabber</tt> was impoved so that it now rotates about the + center of the circle. This will cause small offsets for the old + grabber. + </li> + </ul> + + <h3>Version 1_1</h3> + + <ul> + <li> + Zooming now works also for scaled documents, for example documents + which contain + <pre> +\special{!userdict begin /bop-hook{0.5 0.5 scale} def end} + </pre> + Very useful for oversized paper sizes like posters. + </li> + <li> + iTe block environments can now occur inside scaled boxes, for example + <pre> +\scalebox{0.5}{% +\begin{iteblock}(\textwidth,8cm) +\ite\includegraphics{sc.eps} +\ite$\sin x$ +\end{iteblock}} + </pre> + Note that <em>\scalebox</em> is defined in the <em>graphics</em> package. + </li> + <li> + Bug due to incorrect scaling (thanks to Manuel Hölß). + <li> + Bug involving killed message window fixed (thanks to Jan Vroonhof). + </li> + </ul> + + <div id='TIMESTAMP' style='font-size:small'><hr/>Last modified by <A HREF='http://www.decatur.de/wolfgang'>Wolfgang Kühn</a> on Apr 4 2005</div> + + </body> + </html> + + + + |
