Alteration log for apa.cls (v1.3.2, January 2006)
1.00 --> 1.01
July 5, 1996: \r@headl now defaults to \r@headr in [doc] (used to complain)
1.01 --> 1.02
October 28, 1996:Changed \rhead to \markright in [doc]
1.02 --> 1.1
July 15, 1997: Removed citation section, loading apacite.sty instead
Added three and four authors/affiliations
Added bibliographystyle{apacite}
August 20, 1997: Removed call to twocolumn.sty (not needed in 2e)
Added notimes and nosf options for jou and man, respectively
Changed \typeout to \ClassWarning where appropriate
Set \textfraction to 0 for the man mode
August 21, 1997: Fixed date stamp on previous alteration :-) and in the
\ProvidesClass command.
Changed author size in jou from \Large to \large
Added \journal, \volume, \ccoppy, \copnum for first page header
August 22, 1997: Changed \footnoterule to be \columnwidth wide
Moved author, title, etc. checking (& warnings) to a single block
Added appropriate behavior for undefined abstracts in doc & man
Removed line numbers from warnings about missing title, author, etc.
Added check for matching number of authors/affiliations
October 30, 1997: Fix version to 1.1 and upload to CTAN
1.1 --> 1.2
December 16, 1997: Changed \evensidemargin from -0.15in to -0.1in to match \oddsidemargin
May 15, 1998: In man mode, do not print a footnote page if no footnotes exist
Changed footnoterule length back to 0.5in as seen in latest JEP:HPP
Used ftnright in jou (if available) so that all footnotes appear
under the right column (canceling other appeareance changes in ftnright)
Used fancyhdr to display journal etc. at the header of the first page
Added conditional compilation macros: \ifapamodeman{}{}, \ifapamodejou{}{},
and \ifapamodedoc{}{} (first parameter when true, second when false); also
\ifapamode{}{}{} with separate options for man, jou, and doc mode.
May 18, 1998: Added \fitfigure for loading eps files and automatically determine dimensions
by trying width=\columnwidth and switching to height=\textheight if the result
is too high. In man mode it rotates the figure if width is greater than height.
May 19, 1998: Adjusted skips above and below captions separately for tables and figures
Added \fitbitmap that doesn't scale eps in man mode (as \fitfigure does).
Will load pslatex instead of times and mathptm if available
May 20, 1998: Changed \columnwidth to \linewidth within \fitfigure nad \fitbitmap to handle
double-column figures (thanks to Donald Arseneau and Heiko Oberdiek)
May 27, 1998: Defined \put@one@authaffil and \put@two@authaffil to unclutter \maketitle
in jou mode.
Copied the footnotemark definitions from article.cls and adjusted dimensions
Adjusted sizes, distances, and dimensions of all sorts in jou mode
June 3, 1998: When two author-affiliation boxes are displayed side by side and one is wider
than \columnwidth but not by more than 25 then no lines are broken and
\hfill is used to separate the two boxes from each other and from the margins
provided that at least .4in of ``breathing space'' is left between the two
(thanks to Donald Arsenau for suggesting the use of tabular)
Thanks to Mike Tarr for testing and for suggesting features
June 10, 1998: Checked and adjusted dimensions in jou format
Implemented the fignum option that prints the short title and the figure
number in the header of figure pages in man mode
Defined \thickline for horizontal separator between caption and table
Made footnote separators (and ack box rule separator) thinner in all modes
June 12, 1998: Set tabular to occupy the full \linewidth in jou mode
Option notab can be specified to override this and revert to standard tabular
June 13, 1998: Freeze features and call it a beta.
July 28, 1998: Fix version to 1.2, rename .doc files to .txt, and upload to CTAN
(version datestamp is 8/1/98)
1.2 --> 1.21
August 1, 1998: Added nobf option to have section headers displayed in regular (not bold)
weight (effective in man mode only)
August 3, 1998: Set endnotes ragged-right in man (thanks to Bob Damber for noticing)
Left-flushed figure captions and underlined period after ``Figure'' in man
1.21 --> 1.22
September 2, 1998: Set running head (lowercase `h') on title page of man mode to flush left
1.22 --> 1.23
January 5, 1999: Fixed bug in \headinglevels (thanks to John Vokey for pointing it out)
January 13,1999: Included all options in the class warning message on unknown option
January 27,1999: Changed \rlap to \hbox in \@makefnmark (thanks to Michael Erickson)
February 9,1999: Added vertical fill around included figures in man mode (fitfigure,fitbitmap)
Added \long to the conditional compilation (mode checking) definitions
April 18,1999: Pass unknown options on to article.cls (thanks to Robin Fairbairns)
June 1, 1999: Fix version to 1.23 and upload to CTAN (version datestamp is 5/1/99)
1.23 --> 1.24
March 10, 2000: Save regular \footnote definition to \oldfootnote before changing to
\endnote and restore after printing endnotes so that footnotes in the
tables will appear correctly in man mode (thanks to Franck Ramus for
pointing out the problem).
Defined \tabfnm and \tabfnt to create footnote marks in tables without
messing up vertical alignment (centering). Used with a single argument,
the footnote mark (e.g., \tabfnm{a} in the tabular environment and
\tabfnt{a}{blabla} right before or after \end{tabular} for the note text.
July 17, 2000: Added second set of braces around \em in cap@style to get citations in
table captions in man mode (thanks to John Vokey for noticing)
Added @dummy@box with an accented character so that the first accent does
not occur inside a citation, because in that case LaTeX complains
(recent distributions only, something about apacite+OT1 -- babel bug?)
July 18,2000 Added Michael Erickson's patch to handle appendix section & float numbering
Revised and set default to one unnumbered appendix for backwards compatibility
July 27,2000 Added floatmark option for those who still want figure and table in-text
markers ("Insert table/figure X here"). These are not required in the 4th
edition of the manual and will now by default not appear.
(Thanks to Michael Erickson for pointing it out and helping correct this)
Defined \appendix* and \appendixes (no difference between the two)
for more than one appendices, to be numbered A, B, C, ...
Individual appendices are treated as sections, in the standard LaTeX manner
1.24 --> 1.25
October 20,2000 Added flushend.sty in jou mode (optional)
Language portability: abstractname, refname/bibname, acksname, notesname
figurecaptionsname, appendixname, figurename, tablename
Added \apavector based on p. 114 of the APA manual
Fixed appendix headings, used old@tabular to center in jou mode
\appendix* and \appendices no longer necessary since the number is detected
and adjustments are made automatically -- removed, only \appendix remains
July 5, 2001 Do not print "Figure captions" page when there are no figures
(added @figure@written definition as flag in endfloat code)
Fixed check for Greek language so that \GreekDefs is expanded correctly
Changed \uppercase to \MakeUppercase to work in every language
1.25 --> 1.26
February 27,2002:Quick fix for APA manual 5th edition (man mode only):
(a) do not load ulem.sty since italics are OK and no underlining is needed
(b) hanging indent in bibliography as in other modes (and apacite default)
Removed some calls to \rm that prevented use of the default font family
Declared font options: helv for helvetica and tt for typewriter
The \helvetica command now only produces a warning to use the helv option
Got longtable to work with apa.cls. Must be used as option to apa.cls
and not loaded as regular package (due to precedence requirements for
proper endfloat function and cross-definitions). ONLY for man mode
(longtable does not work unless in single-column). Unfortunately the
ifapamode commands won't work to keep a single table body and mode-specific
table or longtable environment because if cross-nests with environment
begin/end. In fact the table environment won't even work inside in
ifapamode argument, which makes it impossible to have a single file
that can be processed for both man and jou. Defeats the purpose of apa.cls...
Sent out as v1.26 to a bunch of users for testing and feedback
1.26 --> 1.27
March 15, 2002: Commented out forgotten \old@endtabular etc @ ~ l. 720 because the \relax
caused an extra line after the end of tabular (thanks to Jacob Feldman
for noticing)
1.27 --> 1.28
March 31, 2002: Fixed appendix headers which were in a tabular parbox centered in a
column shifted right by 4em (the \leftskip of the section header, \leveltwo).
Thanks to Jeff Miller for pointing out the bug.
April 1, 2002: \@figure@written should be defined globally to be visible at end document
Thanks to Olivier Crouzet for noticing that figure captions weren't printing
Fixed (I hope) vertical placement of appendix section header by removing
extra vertical space (presumably added in the making of the tabular box)
1.28 --> 1.2.9
July 20, 2002: Changed \columnwidth to \linewidth in the journal format table caption
to handle wide captions (thanks to Ragnar Steingrimsson for noticing)
Changed \underline to \em in man mode figure caption page for "Figure #."
(thanks to Ragnar Steingrimsson for noticing)
Changed version numbering to the correct 1.2.x (instead of 1.2x)
Now using \refstepcounter to increase appendix number so that appendices
can be referenced via label/ref (add \label{app:X} after appendix \section
command and reference anywhere in text using Appendix~\ref{app:X})
Fixed appendix section title centering by removing tabular intra-box space
August 21, 2002: Set parsep to 0em for biblist in man mode because some editor complained
that the references were separated by more than regular line skip.
(I can't quite thank Steve Finney for bringing it up...). Then commented
out the change because the ref list was much easier to read before.
August 30, 2002: Fix version to 1.3.0 and upload to CTAN
1.3.0 --> 1.3.1
September 24, 2004: Load babel from within apa.cls because it must precede apacite
(apacite fixes problems due to incompatibility)
July 23, 2005: Remove bibliography adjustments now handled by apacite;
Call apacite with [bibnewpage] option in man mode
Removed Greek language definitions, to be handled by apacite
Added definitions to support distinction in citation form between
regular text (requiring "and") and table captions (requiring "&")
July 25, 2005: Combined longtable & sideways floats into a single endfloat.cfg
July 26, 2005: Set txfonts as default typeface for jou mode, if available, after Erik
Meijer's suggestion; added notxfonts option in case this is undesirable
Added xkeyval support for specifying babel language options;
added special babelmain option to specify the main document language
Reactivated Greek language definitions for strings defined and used
exclusively by apa.cls (Running head, Author note, Figure captions,
Footnotes)
Removed code long ago commented out, to clean up the file a bit
1.3.1 --> 1.3.2
December 28, 2005: Removed xkeyval and special babel options, because Erik Meijer pointed
out that any additional options are automatically passed on to babel
without the need for any special action, so one may call apa.cls with
\documentclass[man,fignum,babel,greek,english]{apa}, for example, and
this loads babel with [greek,english] options, as desired (same order)
Added \iint and related definitions that prevent txfonts (loaded by
apa.cls automatically) to clash with amsmath (if loaded by the user).
The problem was noticed and solved by Erik Meijer, who contributed the
solution code.
Incorporated improved definition of apavector, as provided by Erik Meijer,
which uses package bm and redefines (upright) Greek letters so that most
vector cases are handled appropriately (displayed in bold; or with tilde
at the same distance)
December 30, 2005: Switched to external language strings with the same system as apacite
Defined english.apa and greek.apa containing the 4 necessary macros
Sent out as beta version (1.3.2b) for some external testing
January 2, 2006: Fixed warning about missing language definitions (thanks to Erik Meijer)
Added dutch.apa supplied by Erik Meijer
Erik Meijer noticed that tables (tabular environments) in doc mode weren't
centered and did not follow the proper citation form (& instead of "and")
A special apatabular-style macro was created to fix both problems
January 3, 2006: Tried \@topnum and \@botnum definitions to keep tables from ugly front-page
placement in doc mode (noted by Erik Meijer). Decided against it because it
messes with placement of acknowledgements on first page. Since it is unlikely
that a manuscript will reference table on the first page, in the rare case
when it happens the author will have to move it manually later in the text.
Added separate tabular/endtabular redefinitions for the doc mode, activated
through \maketitle after document beginning, to ensure table centering.
Might interfere with array.sty if loaded.
January 5, 2006: Added \fiveauthors and \fiveaffiliations, contributed by Aaaron Geller,
including corresponding changes to \maketitle for each of the three modes;
Completed tests for consistent number of author/affiliation definitions
Added \sixauthors and \sixaffiliations, including corresponding changes
to \maketitle and tests for consistent definitions
January 10, 2006: Tried \@topnum=\z@ and \@botnum=\@ne so that tables do not appear on the
first page in doc mode (the acknowledgements is the "one" float allowed on
the title page, if defined).
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
TO DO FOR v2.0: Is continuation note at page end required with long tables? (5.21/p. 301)
Stop messing with captions and use a standard package (caption2, ccaption)
Stop messing with endfloat and use loflot or something for the captions page
Use fancyhdr for all headings in all modes (instead of markboth/markright)
Appendices should be set in smaller typeface, including headings
Tabular footnotes should be automated -- not practical because it varies
dont' know how to keep expanding list of footnotes to display at \endtabular
Follow manual guidelines for table "Note" vs. probabilities (3.70/p. 170)
Wide tables should be turned sideways automatically -- how?
Fix Greek definitions according to babel conventions -- check babel docs
Clean up the font act -- remove rm/hrm/hsl etc.
Use geometry package to set margins taking into account paper size (A4)
Add contact information command and field for first page (man mode only)
PROBLEMS: flushend.sty seems to mess up the last column if there is a float in it.
array.sty redefines tabular/endtabular and so it is not compatible with the
\apatabular definitions.
There may not be enough space on the title page for notes in case of more
than four author-affiliation pairs -- need smarter layout setup
