Summary description: LaTeX class for formatting academic papers in ABNT standards
Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
A breaking change refers to a change capable of altering older
documents if compiled with the current version of the class.
- Breaking change. The locators `\listacronymname`, `\listabbreviationname`,
and `\listsymbolname` are no longer defined in Portuguese but are
initially defined in English (without the presence of babel.sty).
This only represents a breaking change in documents that do not load
babel, but this is very unlikely;
- `\normalsize` is now initialized in `\DeclareOption{10pt}` and
`\DeclareOption{11pt}` from now on.
- New command `\abntextonote` for inserting notes into tables:
`\long\def\note#1{\abntextonote{#1}}` or `\long\def\nt#1{\abntextonote{#1}}`.
New commands `\savedabntextonote`, `\abntextonotelabel`, `\printnotebox`;
- New command `\setplacepos`;
- Added `\gresetORIlabel` to the definition of `subplace`;
- The definition of `\alternativesublegend` has been simplified;
- New command `\subnote`;
- New commands \abntextodecimalcomma, \abntextohyperrefpatch,
\abntextodisabledecimalcomma, \abntextodisablehyperrefpatch
and \disableautotextual;
- New command `\useeletroniclayout`;
- Addition to the manual on how the end user can define
`\nextoddphysicalpage` to ensure that sections start on
the front of the sheets;
- Addition to the manual on how the end user can redefine `\bibsetup`
to ensure that References are formatted according to NBR~6023:2018;
- Addition to the manual regarding the situation where a floating
object and a non-floating object are together on the same page
with out-of-order numbering. The solution is to avoid floating
and non-floating objects on the same page;
- Addition to the manual regarding the fact that the latest version
is always available on Github (the version on CTAN is not necessarily
the most recent);
- Addition to the manual: a new subsection on the typographical
treatment of quaternary and quinary sections;
- In abntexto-exemplo.tex, the abstract in a foreign language must
be enclosed in `\selectlanguage`;
- In abntexto-exemplo.tex, the cataloging record page cannot have
the `\onesidelayout` layout because such a page must be on the
back of the title page, therefore `\twosidelayout` was added.
In addition, the pre-textual elements were presented on the
front side, as recommended by NBR 14724:2024;
- The manual stated that "both `\singlesp\onehalfsp` and `\onehalfsp\singlesp`
produce the same effect", but this statement is incorrect.
The correct statement is "both `\abntsmall\onehalfsp` and
`\onehalfsp\abntsmall` produce the same effect";
- The `\sectionmark` in the example in the Headers and Footers
section of the Source Code appendix correctly resets `\marks1`
from now on;
- The commands `\phantomsection`, `\Hy@writebookmark`, and
`\NG@gettitle` were defined using `\providecomand`;
- A note regarding the occasion when the warning `\tnba@warn@eqbox`
(formerly `\tnba@obs@eqbox`) cannot be displayed when it should:
during a change in the document's font;
- The abntexto-uece class was cited in the manual as a help source
for class writers;
- Pages in direct quotations in the manual were marked;
- An occurrence of NBR 10520 was replaced by NBR 14724 in the manual.
