Performance improvements up to 130x. + See bug #10404 + +* Usage of the '$' keyword in part function allowed. + +* The histplot command can now be used with the option polygon=%t/%f to add the + frequency polygon chart (Thanks to Mehran Khorshidi). + +* Multi level completion on mlist, struct, XML structures... + +* Variable browser improvements: + - The variable browser also shows the size of integers and the user type of + the tlist/mlist. + See bugs #12523 and #10409. + - It is now possible to delete variables from the variable browser. + See bug #9447. + - A user can now plot variables from the variable browser (this functionality was + already available in the variable editor). + +* Added lighting effect for plot of surfaces. Lighting can be enabled + creating light objects or disabled by deleting them. The following function + was introduced: + - light - Creates a light graphic object. + +* Localization: + - Multiple domains in localization managed. + - addlocalizationdomain function added for a new domain creation. + - Optional parameter added to gettext to manage domains. + - tbx_generate_pofile and tbx_build_localization added to create localization files for + modules. + +* Windows Solution updated to Visual Studio 2012. + +* -keepconsole option added for Scilab Windows to facilitate debugging. + Calling Scilab with this option will leave the console box window opened at startup. + +* License update: switch to the CeCILL 2.1. + + +Improvements +============= + +* New calling sequence allowed for nicholschart: nicholschart(gains, phases, colors). + See bug #7828. + +* qp_solve can now take up to 5 output arguments. The last one is an error flag, + if it is present, then the function will display a warning instead of an error. + See bug #10269. + +* graypolarplot has been improved in terms of performances and rendering. + See bug #12641. + +* nthroot is now vectorizable. + See bug #12678. + +* New optional output argument for routh_t. + See bug #12829. + +* modulo and pmodulo now support integers & hypermatrices (See bug #13002). + +* test_run can now separate 32-bit systems from 64-bit ones. + +* pol2str: now handles polynomials with complex coefficients and hypermatrices (See bug #13109). + +* nanreglin: reglin with arguments containing NaNs (See bug #13208). + +* New optional input argument added to matfile2sci (append or write the output file). + + +GUI Refactoring and Improvements +================================ + +* New uicontrols styles: + - tab: component which enables the user to switch between sets of uicontrols by + clicking on a tab. + The children components are "frame" uicontrols. + Two dedicated properties have been added to configure this component: + - title_position: Position of the tabs + - title_scroll: Indicates if tabs must all be displayed at a time or + managed with scroll features. + - layer: Component which enables the user to make parts of a GUI visible/invisible + programmatically. + - spinner: Component which enables the user to select/edit a value between bounds + with a fixed step. + +* New uicontrols properties: + - border: Used to set some decoration properties on "frame" uicontrols. + These decorations can be created and initialized with the createBorder + and the createBorderFont functions. + - scrollable: Used to add scrolling capabilities on "frame" uicontrols. + - groupname: Used to group "radiobutton" and "checkbox" uicontrols for an easier + management. + - icon: Add an icon to "pushbutton", "text" and "frame" uicontrols. + - margin: Empty space around uicontrols. + +* New uimenu properties: + - icon: add an icon on the left of the menu label. + +* "listbox" and "popupmenu" style uicontrols can now manage colors selection, icons, background + and foreground colors when the "String" property is set to a matrix matching the format: + ["#color1", "Item1", "#background1", "#foreground1";

+ Note that this deprecated behavior will be removed in future versions. + +* New way to access uicontrols using a path containing their "Tag" and their parent(s) "Tag" property. + See the set and get functions help page for more details. + +* New display for uicontrols handles properties. Only properties used for Java rendering are displayed. + To display all available properties, use the "ShowHiddenProperties" "Console" property. + + +Graphics Evolutions +=================== + +* set function prototype has been modified to allow the user to set multiple + properties at once: set(h, "Property1", Value1, "Property2", Value2, ...) + +* newaxes function now allows to create axes in "frame" uicontrols. + +* clf function now also works with "frame" uicontrols. + +* New axes properties: + - ticks_format: Format of the ticks labels. + - ticks_st: Scales and translates factors applied to ticks position when formatting + the ticks labels. + - auto_margins: Activated by default, this property lets Scilab compute margins + needed to display axes decorations (titles, labels, ...). + - grid_thickness: Thickness of the grid plotting. + - grid_style: Style of the grid plotting. + - label_font_style: Font style used to draw the labels. + +* New legends properties: + - line_width: Width of the drawn line. + - mark_count: Number of the drawn marks. + +* New polyline properties: + - mark_offset: Offset before the first mark. + - mark_stride: Step between consecutive marks. + - display_function: Name of the function used to customize the information + displayed in all the datatips of this polyline. + This function can be overloaded by setting a display + function on each datatip handle. + - display_function_data: Additional data needed for datatips display function. + - datatips: Handles of the datatips of the polyline. + +* New Matplot property added : + - rect: specifies the rectangle where the Matplot will be drawn. + +* Datatips properties have been renamed for better readability: + - tip_data --> data + - tip_box_mode --> box_mode + - tip_label_mode --> label_mode + - tip_orientation --> orientation + - tip_3component --> z_component + - tip_auto_orientation --> auto_orientation + - tip_interp_mode --> interp_mode + - tip_disp_function --> display_function + + +Differential Equations +====================== + +* Netlib's Quadpack, used for definite integration, has been updated to match the upstream. + + +SciNotes +======== + +* Autosave feature can now use %date to append the current date to the backup filename + (See bug #12712). + + +Xcos +==== + +* New DAE solver: DDaskr, using BDF methods with direct Newton and preconditioned Krylov + linear solvers, which includes rootfinding. + It is available from dae function. + +* In Modelica initialization GUI, inputs (eg. sensor) were not handled. + +* Sundials updated to the "2.5.0" version, keeping our modifications. + +* JGraphX updated to the "2.1.0.7" version, updating our hooks performance. + +* API changed in the scicos_block4 interface: the uid value is not available + inside the simulation function. + +* API change: In scicos_block4.h, "Residute" renamed to "Jacobian". + +* xcosAddToolsMenu added to let the user perform some actions on the graph. + +* CBLOCK4 block added to the "User-Defined Functions" + +* xcos_debug_gui function added for a simple use of the Debug block. + +* tbx_build_pal_loader function added to ease external module creation (See SEP #120). + +* Event management demonstrations added. + + +Toolbox Skeleton +================= + +* Some Xcos specific content added to xcos_toolbox_skeleton help pages. + + +Compilation +============ + +* Minimal version of Flexdock (1.2.4) enforced. + +* Minimal version of JoGL (2.1.4) enforced. + +* Minimal version of JLaTeXMath (1.0.3) enforced. + +* New dependencies to manage EMF export: + - freehep-graphics2d.jar + - freehep-graphicsio-emf.jar + - freehep-graphicsio.jar + - freehep-io.jar + - freehep-util.jar +Note: --without-emf can be used to disable this feature. + + +Obsolete & Removed Functions +============================ + +* Scilab 5.5.X family will be the latest family working under Windows XP/2003. + +* Vector ^ scalar syntax declared as obsolete.

CLSS wrongly handled scalar values. + + + + Changes between version 5.5.0-beta-1 and 5.5.0 + ============================================== + +GUI Refactoring and Improvements +================================ + +* New uicontrols styles: + - tab: component which enables the user to switch between sets of uicontrols by + clicking on a tab. + The children components are "frame" uicontrols. + Two dedicated properties have been added to configure this component: + - title_position: Position of the tabs + - title_scroll: Indicates if tabs must all be displayed at a time or + managed with scroll features. + - layer: Component which enables the user to make parts of a GUI visible/invisible + programmatically. + - spinner: Component which enables the user to select/edit a value between bounds + with a fixed step. + +* New uicontrols properties: + - border: Used to set some decoration properties on "frame" uicontrols. + These decorations can be created and initialized with the createBorder + and the createBorderFont functions. + - scrollable: Used to add scrolling capabilities on "frame" uicontrols. + - groupname: Used to group "radiobutton" and "checkbox" uicontrols for an easier + management. + - icon: Add an icon to "pushbutton", "text" and "frame" uicontrols. + - margin: Empty space around uicontrols. + +* New uimenu properties: + - icon: add an icon on the left of the menu label. + +* "listbox" and "popupmenu" style uicontrols can now manage colors selection, icons, background + and foreground colors when the "String" property is set to a matrix matching the format: + ["#color1", "Item1", "#background1", "#foreground1"; "#color2", "Item2", ..., ...] + ["icon1", "Item1", "#background1", "#foreground1"; "icon2", "Item2", ..., ...] + with "#color1", "#background1" and "#foreground1" in HTML format #XXXXXX. + Then the component will display a colored box or icon on the left of the associated string, + and different background/foreground colors for items. + +* New management of uicontrols positioning: + In previous versions, uicontrols position was managed in an absolute way through + their "Position" property and the "Resizefcn" property of their parent figure. + Using the new layout management in figures and "frame" style uicontrols, position + is now managed in an automatic way based on Java layouts. + New dedicated properties have been added in figure and uicontrols: + - layout: layout type. + - layout_options: configuration of the layout. + Options can be initialized with the createLayoutOptions function. + Type "help layouts" in Scilab for more information about available types and options. + Uicontrols position is then managed through the "constraints" property. + A new createConstraints function has been added to managed these contraints. + +* New figures properties: + - icon: Allows to customize the figure icon. + - menubar: allows to create windows without any menu bar (default menus will not be created). + - menubar_visible: Manages menu bar visibility. + - toolbar: Allows to create windows without any toolbar. + - toolbar_visible: Manages toolbar visibility. + - infobar_visible: Manages infobar visibility. + - resize: Allows to lock window size. + - dockable: Allows to create dockable/standard figures. + - default_axes: Allows to manage default axes creation in figures. + +* The figure "visible" property management has evolved and offers new possibilities: + - When the figure is docked, this property manages the visibility + of components inside the figure (uicontrols, axes, ...). + In previous releases, this same property setting only managed axes. + - When the figure is not docked, this property manages the visibility + of the whole figure including its decorations. + +* New way to create GUI using XML files: + - Created GUI using the figure/uicontrol/uimenu functions can now be saved in + this new format using saveGui function. + - XML files in this format can be loaded in Scilab using the loadGui function. + This function aims at creating GUI in a more efficient way. + +* New rendering for GUI/uicontrols: + In this version, uicontrols use the defaults of the OS Look & Feel. + Some properties default values are not set by Scilab and then can be different from an + OS to another. + To come back to the previous and deprecated behavior, you can use the related + property on the "Console" handle: + set(get(0), "UseDeprecatedSkin", "on"); + Note that this deprecated behavior will be removed in future versions. + +* New way to access uicontrols using a path containing their "Tag" and their parent(s) "Tag" property. + See the set and get functions help page for more details. + +* New display for uicontrols handles properties. Only properties used for Java rendering are displayed. + To display all available properties, use the "ShowHiddenProperties" "Console" property. + + +Graphics Evolutions +=================== + +* set function prototype has been modified to allow the user to set multiple + properties at once: set(h, "Property1", Value1, "Property2", Value2, ...) + +* newaxes function now allows to create axes in "frame" uicontrols. + +* clf function now also works with "frame" uicontrols. + +* New axes properties: + - ticks_format: Format of the ticks labels. + - ticks_st: Scales and translates factors applied to ticks position when formatting + the ticks labels. + - auto_margins: Activated by default, this property lets Scilab compute margins + needed to display axes decorations (titles, labels, ...). + - grid_thickness: Thickness of the grid plotting. + - grid_style: Style of the grid plotting. + - label_font_style: Font style used to draw the labels. + +* New legends properties: + - line_width: Width of the drawn line. + - mark_count: Number of the drawn marks. + +* New polyline properties: + - mark_offset: Offset before the first mark. + - mark_stride: Step between consecutive marks. + - display_function: Name of the function used to customize the information + displayed in all the datatips of this polyline. + This function can be overloaded by setting a display + function on each datatip handle. + - display_function_data: Additional data needed for datatips display function. + - datatips: Handles of the datatips of the polyline. + +* New Matplot property added : + - rect: specifies the rectangle where the Matplot will be drawn. + +* Datatips properties have been renamed for better readability: + - tip_data --> data + - tip_box_mode --> box_mode + - tip_label_mode --> label_mode + - tip_orientation --> orientation + - tip_3component --> z_component + - tip_auto_orientation --> auto_orientation + - tip_interp_mode --> interp_mode + - tip_disp_function --> display_function + + +Scilab +====== + +* New functions introduced: + - jcreatejar - Creates a Java archive (JAR) from a set of files / directories + - ilib_build_jar - Builds Java packages from sources into a JAR file + - ifftshift - Inverses FFT shift + - unwrap - Unwraps/unfolds a Y(x) profile + - getPreferencesValue/setPreferencesValue - Get or set values in the preferences file. + - htmlDump/htmlRead/htmlReadStr/htmlWrite - Read and write data from/in HTML files. + - numderivative - Approximate derivatives of a function (Jacobian or Hessian). + +* modulo and pmodulo now support integers & hypermatrices (See bug #13002). + +* test_run can now separate 32-bit systems from 64-bit ones. + +* pol2str: now handles polynomials with complex coefficients and hypermatrices (See bug #13109). + +* nanreglin: reglin with arguments containing NaNs (See bug #13208). + +* New optional input argument added to matfile2sci (append or write the output file). + + +Xcos +==== + +* xcos_debug_gui function added for a simple use of the Debug block. + +* tbx_build_pal_loader function added to ease external module creation (See SEP #120). + +* Event management demonstrations added. + +* API change: In scicos_block4.h, "Residute" renamed to "Jacobian". + + +Obsolete & Removed Functions +============================ + +* relocate_handle tagged as obsolete.
