Summary

v1.62 brings a few new features requested by users (Tectonic support, WSL support, generation from external file, default Fill color for Shape displays, export/import of settings to XML) and fixes several issues.

Note: It is likely that the IguanaTex_v1_62.ppam file will sometimes be recognized as malware by Windows Defender and some other vendors. I strongly believe this is a false positive, as has happened in the past. We are waiting for Microsoft to white-list this file. In the meantime, if you have any malware detection issues, you can download the .pptm file and create your own .ppam file by using "Save as" (or "Export" on Mac) and selecting the file type as "PowerPoint Add-in (*.ppam)". Users report that the created .ppam is not considered as a threat. If the .pptm file itself raises a warning, it can be unblocked by right-clicking, selecting Properties, and clicking "Trust".

Note: IguanaTex_v1_62.ppam is the same for Windows and Mac.

Full list of changes

New in IguanaTex 1.62 (December 3, 2024)

  • (Win/Mac) Added support for Tectonic (fixes #63)
  • (Win/Mac) Allowed for custom prefix for LaTeX commands instead of only a folder specifying a path. This for example allows using a LaTeX installation under the Windows Subsystem for Linux via the prefix wsl -e (because wsl does not support quotes around the command, it is treated as a special case). (fixes #64)
  • (Win/Mac) Added button to directly generate from file without first loading into the edit window. File path in editor window's "Read from file" is now also stored when clicking "Make Default". Created macro "LoadDefaultFileAndGenerate" to generate display from default file (enables 1-click generation from file by adding macro to Quick Access Toolbar, currently only on Windows due to Microsoft bug on Mac). (fixes #66 and #67)
  • (Win/Mac) Added option to set a Fill color for Shape objects in the editor window. The color is stored when clicking "Make Default". (fixes #68)
  • (Win/Mac) Added ability to export/import settings to/from XML (fixes #71)
  • (Win/Mac) Added test to make sure that the temporary file IguanaTex_tmp.tex can be created, to avoid raising an error (fixes #77)
  • (Win/Mac) Only settings that are currently visible and active in the Editor window now get saved when clicking "Make Default" (all used to be saved).
  • (Win/Mac) Added pop-ups (i.e., ControlTipText) to some buttons to remind the user about associated keyboard shortcut (i.e., Accelerator); fixed order of items when using Tab in Main Settings.
  • (Win/Mac) Update some default paths
  • (Mac) Fixed editor window size not being saved when clicking "Make default". The editor window size can also be set in the Main Settings on Mac.
  • (Mac) Automatically reset Temp folder path to default if path is set to empty
