Performance Enhancements
The performance of the LaTeX build process was enhanced and building should be ca. 25% faster now.
Better error detection
All LaTeX and TeX build errors are now detected. Layout warnings are an extra problem class so that they could be filtered out.
Better partial building
The partial building feature is completly reworked and we encourage you to switch it on as default option.
Better viewer support
Big improvements to the viewer framework:
- On Windows systems the pdf document in Acrobat is automatically closed before rebuild
- Automatic launch of preferred viewer for the current output format on preview. Preferred is closed to the top in the preferences.
- Problems with special output folder are fixed
- Bring eclipse back on top after inverse search
Better syntax highlighting
More math environments (AMSMath) are supported. Colorization support for Verbatim, verbatim and lstlisting environments was added.
Content assist for math mode
Inside a math environment the content assist system shows math (with images!) instead of normal LaTeX commands and there are also special math templates.
Menu with LaTeX commands and symbols
Change text style
TeXlipse provides the ability to change the style of selected text via content assist (Ctrl+Space)
New Project LaTeX Outline
A new view (TeXlipse/Full Latex outline) which shows the outline of the full project with all \include and \input commands.
Smartkey support
Many enhancements to the Editor:
Hover support
There is a hover which appears in many situations:
Show the label and surrounding line if mouse cursor is over a \ref{...} command
Show the BibTex entry if mouse cursor is over a \cite{...} command
Show a help text (sometimes with image) if mouse cursor is over a command
BibTeX editor enhancements
New warnings: duplicate keys, duplicate fields, empty fields, missing required fields (even with crossrefs), invalid crossrefs, duplicate abbrevs (@string), missing abbrevs
Sorting the outline: by index, author (grouped by author), by journal or by year
