Donald P. Story submitted an update to the
icon-appr
package.
Version number: 2020-06-05
License type: lppl1.2
Summary description: Creates icon appearances for form buttons
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Use this package to create icon appearances for push buttons, check box
buttons, and radio buttons form fields.
Package works for pdflatex, lualatex, xelatex, dvips/distiller or
dvips/ps2pdf; some techniques require Acrobat. Pdfmark-type drivers
require, depending on the method used, aeb_pro or graphicxsp.
PDF Viewers: Adobe Reader DC, PDF-XChange Editor, and, of course Adobe
Acrobat. SummatraPDF previews the icon buttons very well.
What's New 2020-06-05: The basic functionality of this package is
unchanged. In this version, the AP entry is added to the Names dictionary
of the PDF catalog. This means that the names of the icons imported in the
embedding environment are known to Acrobat/Adobe Reader/PDF-Exchange
Editor. It also allows the icons to be manipulated using JavaScript
methods, the most significant of which is the Doc.getIcon(<icon-name>)
method. Revised examples illustrate Doc.getIcon().

Version number: 1.7a 2020-06-07
License type: gpl3+
Summary description: Accept CSS-like selectors in tabular, array, …
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
cellprops is a package to setup tabular and array environments appearance with CSS-like
declarations. This release fixes a problem with multicolumns where the background was
drawn correctly, but not the borders which wouldn't span multiple columns. It also
improves performance of :nth-child() pseudo-class handling, and enforces n>=0
in :nth-child(An+B) constructs, as the CSS specification mandates. This makes it possible
to select the five first rows or every other column starting from the fourth. The
specificity of selectors is also truer to the CSSÂ specification, even if for different
selectors with equal specificity the latest one doesn't always win.

Summary description: A key-value document command parser
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello,
Until the last upload in 04/15, this pkg's summary was Encoding
notational conventions, which was indeed the motivation behind it, but in
hindsight restrictive, hence the new summary. The doc was not understood
by those I sought feedback from (see biography), so the new one takes a
new approach. Minor changes to the interface that result in more coherent
conventions, and changes to the default behavior to take into account the
language and, if applicable, math mode.
Kind regards.
