<!--- CircuiTikz - Changelog --->
The major changes among the different CircuiTikZ versions are listed here. See <https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/commits> for a full list of changes.

* Version 1.8.5 (2026-02-4)

    The main highlight of this version is a new mechanism for managing advanced (that is, user-defined) voltage, current, and flow elements. Additionally, a new set of shapes for ideal filter blocks has been added.

    - Add "automatic advanced voltages/currents/flows" [(by Romano)](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/discussions/911), marked as experimental for now.
    - Add an `ideal filter` option for plot-type filters, to draw ideal (square) filter shapes.

* Version 1.8.4 (2026-01-07)

    The main highlights of this release are a new appearance (optional!) for blocks representing filters, some option to add style to the inner drawings of blocks (and some fixes for anchors too), and several new options.

    - Add a new set of filter blocks, add options for inner block drawings (by Romano)
    - Add the option to *not* draw the wiper in rotary switches, suggested by [@kabenyuk and @cis in this Q&A](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/755499/circuitkiz-customize-the-style-of-the-rotary-switch-position-display)
    - Add an option to change the aspect of `msrstub` (thanks to user cis, see [relevant chat on TeX.SX](https://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/68629615#68629615))
    - Add the singeneric (sine generic bipole) component (by [Jakob Leide](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/907))
    - Fix a problem with dc symbol dashes, see [this issue on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/897)
    - Fix position of the left/right up/down anchors for node-type blocks (they did not obey the `pos` keys) and for amplifier-type blocks when boxed
    - Minor fixes in the manual (thanks [quark67](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/891)!)
    - Make the value of `bipoles/length` usable by `\ctikzvalof` (by [Jonathan P. Spratte](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/900))
    - Add a key to customise the number of lines of the `gridnode` inner drawing (by [Jakob Leide](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/906))


* Version 1.8.3 (2025-11-23)

    The main highlight of this version is the fix of the oo-type sources and transformers. They used parameters different from width and height to define the shape, and the anchors were not stable (and some of them were plain wrong). It also adds several capabilities to them (anchors, additional windings, and so on).
    Additionally, IGT thyristors and a couple of generic shapes (AC/DC symbols) have been added.

    - Add anchors, additional winding, global scale switch and symbol rotation to the oo-type component, suggested by [Jakob Leide](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/886)
    - Add IGCT thyristors by [Paul Sacco](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/881)
    - Add ac/dc symbols (by Romano)
    - Fix definition and stabilize anchors of oo- and ooo-type components.
    - Fix encoding of the manual, removing some latin1 chars and converting to utf8. Why that was working is a mystery.

* Version 1.8.2 (2025-07-08)

    Another significant change for Circuitikz's internals: all the text anchors of the components are now stable, meaning they are meaningful after the component has been drawn. That was the case only for part of the components. It *shouldn't* affect anything for standard usage, but according to the Ti*k*Z manual, this is "the way".
    Additionally, new label positions for transistors, and a much better alphabetical index in the manual.

    - Stabilize all the text anchors (problem [reported by user `@JPWiedemann` on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/876), while coding the [Circuitikz GUI](https://github.com/Circuit2TikZ/CircuiTikZ-Designer)
    - Fix text anchors for blocks `oscillator` and `gridnode`, which were completely bogus
    - Add `component text=up` or `...down` for transistor labels
    - Documentation fixes for text anchors
    - Better index entries (use *seealso*, hyperlink in every entry). Thanks to David Carlisle for the hint.

* Version 1.8.1 (2025-06-15)

    Minor changes: better documentation on using `pic`s for subcircuits, a new style of MOSFETs, completing the "plain" amplifiers.

    - add Andrew Stacey's [`tikzmark` library](https://ctan.org/pkg/tikzmark?lang=en) to the manual
    - add FDSOI MOSFETs, [suggested by Raphael Nägele](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/871)
    - New component: `plain gm mono amp` (added by [Matthias Schweikardt](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/873))
    - documentation enhancements

* Version 1.8.0 (2025-05-25)

    The change that deserves a version level bump is applied to the path logic, which fixes a longstanding bug (or lack of feature), which enables the embedding of `circuitikz` paths into pics (among other things; see the related issue).

    - Fix errors when path-style components are used in pics (and in some other place; fix by Romano, [see the related issue](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/866)
    - Add rollback point for version 1.7.2
    - Several fixes and additions to the manual

* Version 1.7.2 (2025-03-21)

    A couple of new components (wiggly bulbs and a new "oo" type autotransformer), and several small corrections.

    - Fix leaking filament in `bulb` bipole
    - Fix small incoherence between width/height in oo-type sources
    - New component: Wiggly bulb (suggested by [Sebastiano](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/845))
    - New component: "zero-type" autotransformer (suggested by [Max Börjesson ](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/852))
    - Allow to set the index position for square instruments (by [Julien Labbé](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/848))

* Version 1.7.1 (2025-01-10)

    Various new blocks have been added, and several fixes have been applied (the barrier one is slightly backward-incompatible...).

    - Added a flag to have German style TVS (suggested by [Dr. Matthias Jung](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/836), implemented by Romano)
    - Added many blocks all over the map (suggested by [Dr. Matthias Jung](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/693), with tweaks by Romano)
    - Fix for straight voltage on `open` bipoles (reported by [Oliver Wallscheid on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/821))
    - Fix a very, very old bug about aliases for american/european sources
    - Fix `barrier` wire linewidth (issue [#833](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/833) by schtandard).
    - Fix stroke-type transorb (which did not work at all)
    - Reduce `barrier` and `openbarrier` default widths so no wire is drawn by default.
        This breaks backward-compatibility and changes the meaning of some associated keys, but the appearance with the default settings remains unchanged. See [#835](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/835) for rationale.
    - Documentation enhancement (example of chopper macro)

* Version 1.7.0 (2024-08-03)

    There are no big changes here, but the change to the resistor code (maybe one of the most used by the package) well deserves a minor version bump. A couple of new components, and several minor fixes.

    - New component: new kind of current tap (suggested by [EEpchi and Jakob Leide on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/807))
    - New arrow tip `Jack Tap` to help drawing jack connectors (suggested by [Anisio Rogerio Braga](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/806))
    - Change the drawing of the thermocouple (suggested by [Jakob Leide on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/811))
    - Change and enhancement to the drawing of the American resistors (triggered by [Jakob Leide on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/814)), fixing a long-standing small asymmetry that nobody noticed
    - Minor adjustment for joins in `viscoe` component
    - Minor additions (`rectjoinfill`) and fixes in documentation

* Version 1.6.9 (2024-05-25)

    - Added a center tap anchor for tube filament (suggested by [user bogger33 on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/792))
    - Added neon lamps (two versions, suggested by [user bogger33 on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/793))
    - Added a configurable spark gap (suggested by [user bogger33 on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/800))
    - Fix a long-standing problem when [(locally) switching diode type](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/794)

* Version 1.6.8 (2024-05-05)

    Several new components, more anchors, a bit of documentation enhancement; maybe the biggest change is the new "flexible" tube.

    - Added a warning about color and engine in the documentation
    - Enhanced the documentation for instruments (thanks to [Github user mxxmxm](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/787))

* Version 1.6.7 (2024-02-09)

    Several new blocks, more flexible generic anchors for blocks, and a new option to align the signs on american-style voltage sources.

    - Added `saturation` block (contributed by [P. Sacco <paul.sacco@estaca.eu>](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/758))
    - Added `iamp`, `sigmoid`, and `allornothing` blocks
    - Added optical fiber `fiber` (contributed by [Christopher Beck](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/771))
    - Now the position of the lateral anchors (`left up` and similar) of blocks is configurable (suggested by [user "sputeanus" on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/769))
    - Now you can choose how the signs on american-style sources rotate when the source is not vertical (suggested by [jotagah on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/773))
    - New section in the manual about related packages

* Version 1.6.6 (2023-12-09)

    Several new components.

    - Added the symbol for metal-oxide varistor `mov`
    - Added another symbol for fuse (wiggly fuse `wfuse`)

* Version 1.6.5 (2023-10-29)

   This version features an important overhaul of the `muxdemux` configurable component/shape, making it much more flexible and powerful, by adding configurable labels and negation and clock symbols to the pins.
   Also, a couple of minor fixes/workarounds.

    - Added optional and configurable inner, outer and border labels to the `muxdemux` shapes
    - Added optional clock wedge and negation signs to the pins of `muxdemux` shapes
    - Added the possibility to add a background drawing to `muxdemux` shapes
    - Fixed a [bug](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/748) with `straightvoltages` and `open`
    - Added an (ugly) workaround for a [voltage shift mismatch](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/747) for sources

* Version 1.6.4 (2023-10-10)

    A bit of enhancement and fixes for the European-style logic ports, more switches (and a bit more configurabilityi for them), more option for some sources.

    - The symbol in European logic ports is now rotation-invariant, and its font can be customized (suggested by [user `@sputeanus` on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/730))
    - Added a couple of "blank" (no symbol) European logic ports
    - Added new "traditional" switches (contributed by [Jakob Leide on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/734))
    - Added configurability (color, thickness, dash) to switch arrows
    - Added "eyw"-symbol (reverse star) for "oo"-type sources (contributed by [Jakob Leide on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/742))
    - Added configurable open shape to the sinusoidal current source (contributed by [Maximilian Martin](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/737))
    - Documentation fixes

* Version 1.6.3 (2023-06-23)

    The main change is that the definition of the "plus" and "minus" symbols used in several parts of the library has changed in order to achieve better alignment of voltages and amplifier symbols when using fonts different from Computer Modern.
    Additionally, internal connection dots in transistors are configurable and have a new default, and documentation has got several fixes and enhancements.

    - Change the definition of the "minus" symbol (see [this issue](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/721)) for details
    - Add documentation on how to contact the border of the source symbols (suggested by [user `@Tipounk` on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/722))
    - in transistors, solder dots and connection dots for body diodes [are now configurable](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/720)
    - Add anchors for the symbols on the `oo`-type sources, suggested by [user `@lapreindl` on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/725); the symbols have been slightly changed and repositioned in the process
    - several documentation fixes

* Version 1.6.2 (2023-05-13)

    Several more styling options for elements (body diodes, transformers, crossing), a clock wedge shape for logical circuits, and documentation updates for ConTeXt, mainly noticing the (upstream) elimination of the thin `siunitx` layer compatibility macros.

    - There is no `siunitx` support for ConTeXt, point to the `units` package
    - `context` compatibility can have glitches: please see [this issue](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/706)

    - Add `clockwedge` shape (suggested by [user `@Mario1159` on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/705))

* Version 1.6.1 (2023-02-11)

    New components: solder jumpers; a couple of small but very useful inversion markers for logical circuits, especially targeted at the mux-demux family; a new inline microphone; a much more versatile hemt; a better legacy `tline`. More tweaks to converters blocks, and a lot of typo/grammar fixes in the manual.

    - Add configurable dashes to the dc symbols in converter blocks (suggested by [user `@dbstf` on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/680))
    - Add solder jumpers (by Romano)
    - Add a shape to mark european-style inversion (suggested by [user `yashpalgoyal1304` on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/679)), adjust European-style logic port triangle inversion symbols to match
    - Add a tail-less mic (suggested by [Dr. Mathhias Jung](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/689)) and an option to change the thickness of the microphone's bar
    - Enhance the `hemt` shape with a GaN-hemt as example (suggested by [user `@epsilon-phi` on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/691))
    - Add anchors and a "bare" option to `tline` (suggested by [Dr. Mathhias Jung](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/694))
    - subcircuits are no more experimental
    - Correction of several typo/grammar errors in the documentation by [quark67](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/pull/686)

* Version 1.6.0 (2022-12-10)

    The big change is the refactoring (and enhancement) of the block's code. In addition, double gate MOSes, several fixes all over the map, and quite a lot of anchors were added into the mix.

    - Big change (mostly backward compatible, minus a couple of bug fixes) to the block's code.
        - Now `vco` can be `box`ed
        - enabled more short-name geographical anchors
        - generic blocks can be made rectangular
        - mid-way lateral anchors for all blocks, as well as up/down
        - renamed converters anchors (old ones retained for backward compatibility)

    - Added several anchors on variable components, suggested by [Dr Matthias Jung](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/663)
    - Added `genericsplitter` component (by [frankplow](github.com/frankplow))
    - Fix - reshape `splitter` using `/tripoles/splitter/width` and `/tripoles/splitter/height` rather than `/tripoles/wilkinson/width` and `/tripoles/wilkinson/height`.

* Version 1.5.5 (2022-11-12)

    New features for optoelectronic devices: a new component, arrow styling,
    and anchors.

    - Added styling of arrows on opto devices, thanks to a suggestion by [Dr Matthias Jung](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/655)
    - Added Light-Dependent resistor shape (by Romano)

    - Merging changes to fix the language in the manual (thanks to Charles B. Cameron, user `@cameroncb1` on GitHub)
    - Added Shockley diode (suggested by [@dauph](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/646039/creating-a-shockley-diode-in-circuitikz))

* Version 1.5.2 (2022-05-08)

    Adding a couple of new component and a nice feature to transistors and tubes.

    - Added TVS diodes (transorb), suggested by [Anisio Rogerio Braga](https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/642219/38080)

* Version 1.5.1 (2022-04-26)

    Bug fix release.

    - Do not load package `regexpatch` by default, thanks to [GitHub user alceu-git](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/628)

* Version 1.5.0 (2022-04-22)

    In this version, several internal changes have been included in order to streamline and organize better the components and to change the management of color. The changes are pretty deep and subtle, so a bug or unexpected behaviour is always possible. You can use the 1.4.6 rollback point in case of trouble, but be sure to report any bug.

    - Added connectors shapes, and included the BNC into that class; thanks to [Alexander Sauter for suggesting them and helping in the design](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/611)
    - Added nullator and norator shapes, suggested by [user atticus-sullivan on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/615)
    - Added buzzer and reversed buzzer bipoles, suggested by [user Michael.H](https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/640501/38080)
    - Added "dot" anchors to inductances
    - Added "boxed only" option for some circular blocks, suggested by [user myzinsky](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/621)
    - Added DIN antenna shape, suggested by [user myzinsky](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/620)

    - Fixed a problem with generic tunable arrows, noticed thanks to [this question on TeX.SX](https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/637182/38080)

    Internal changes:

    - Added a generic drawing function for shapes, which are now drawn always in background
    - Added a hook system to be able to change component drawing settings per-shape, per-class or globally
    - All the 250+ shapes are now "protected" by possible external arrow and arced corners parameters
    - Completely changed the management of the shapes' color, thanks to [GitHub user muzimuzhi](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/605)

* Version 1.4.6 (2022-02-04)

    A nasty bug fix and some hack to avoid that some global Ti*k*Z option spill into the shapes. To better solve that problem, some risky changes are due, so this release will be also a rollback point for compatibility reasons.

    - Fix bug with legacy transmission lines in `overlay`s ([noticed by Benedikt Wilde](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/604))
    - Robustify some shapes: do not let arrows option pass to the inner drawing (see [here](https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/632084/38080) and [here](https://matrix.to/#/!NuxCISwYQJuyWwNsEI:matrix.org/$vQO6luq1F66LJ79dERmaqKI46qMBcjStqYCPi725uZE?via=matrix.org&via=2krueger.de&via=im.f3l.de))
    - Add warning about global draw options in the manual
    - Fixes in documentation: hyperlink the index again, cite new recovery point, remove some legacy construct
    - Added 1.4.6 rollback point

* Version 1.4.5 (2021-12-06)

    Important fix for ConTeXt users, thanks to @TeXnician for reporting.

    - Fixed an incompatibility introduced with subcircuits that made compilation in ConTeXt fail
    - Added `\ctikzflip[x][y]` utility macros for ConTeXt too
    - Fixed stray characters in some Ti*k*Z environment

* Version 1.4.4 (2021-10-31)

    Normal maintenance release; minor bugs fixed, a new component and a new option. No Halloween component, sorry...

    - Added a laser diode component ([contributed by André Alves](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/591))
    - Add the `override source vif` option and better describe source's voltage positioning in the manual
    - fix `nobase` option with IGBT family (noticed by [user hinata exc on Stack Eschange](https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/619334/38080))
    - fix  a problem with [legacy open voltage label position](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/584)

* Version 1.4.3 (2021-09-06)

    Minor release, mainly a single bugfix.

    - added hidden anchors of `ooosource` to the manual
    - fix a bug in anchors of `ooosource` (they did not respect class scaling)
    - faster `use fpu reciprocal` (thanks to Henri Menke)

* Version 1.4.2 (2021-07-26)

    This is a minor release, containing just a new component and a
    small set of fixes (mainly in the documentation).

    - add the `cpe` (constant phase element)
    - correct minor errors in the manual (capacitor's fill, spaces)
      and the code.

* Version 1.4.1 (2021-07-14)

    This version has an important bug fix for label positioning when once-relative style coordinates are used (the ones with a single `+`, like `+(1,1)`.
    Moreover, the possibility to have voltage, current and flow labels *without* the symbols (arrows, etc) has been added, which greatly simplify some kind of personalization of these elements.

    - Added the generic tunable macro
    - Added `no v symbols` (and also for `i` and `f`), thanks to a [head-up by user judober on GitHub](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/567), see also [issue 448](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/448)
    - Fixed [label position for +() style coordinates](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/569)

* Version 1.4.0 (2021-07-06)

    The main news is that *package rollback* for `circuitikz` has been implemented (LaTeX-only, of course).
    Additionally, a small but important change in the path (`to`) construction that should fix some warning from Ti*k*Z
    and give better line joins in wire corners.

    - bump version to 1.4.0
    - implement the version rollback: time travel to 0.4!
    - remove a wrong movement in the path construction (potentially dangerous)

* Version 1.3.9 (2021-06-27)

    Bugfix release: `open poles opacity` was not working in most of the cases.

    - Documentation fixes and small enhancements

* version 1.3.6 (2021-05-09)

    Mainly a bugfix release; fixing a bug in the `l2` stacked labels means that old constructs that were failing silently can give an error now. Sorry.
    To compensate, I added stacked annotation (for symmetry).

    - Added stacked annotations for symmetry with stacked labels.
    - Fixed a bug in the plotting of `inst amp ra` terminals.
    - Fixed a bug in managing stacked labels (`l2=...`); possibly it will be mildly backward-incompatible (please see the manual about incompatible changes)

* Version 1.3.5 (2021-05-02)

    Power electronics devices are the main characters in this release: PUT, GTOs, a new style for thyristors, and a photovoltaic module.
    Additionally, an **experimental** support for subcircuits has been added;
    it could change in the future.
    Fixed a nasty bug in rotary switches "in" anchor positioning in some cases.

    - In the manual, separate the component usage chapter from the big component list
    - Fix wrong rotary switch "in" anchors for switches with more than 180 degrees coverage ([see bug](https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/issues/532))

* Version 1.3.4 (2021-04-20)

    New things, like configurable modifier thickness, ferroelectric devices, and several transistor tweaks.
    Importantly, a bug that hindered compatibility with the internal Ti*k*Z `circuits` library (introduced in 1.3.3) has been fixed.

    - Added separate configuration for the line thickness of resistors, capacitors, and inductors modifiers

* Version 1.3.3 (2021-04-04)

    Several usability additions in this version, and one small fix that could
    change the look of your circuit (without affecting correctness). Some of the
    arrow shapes are now configurable.

    Do not use this version, there is a bug with the new "label distance" key.

    - Added options to fine-tune the position of labels and annotations

* Version 1.2.2 (2020-07-15)

    Bug-fix release: coordinate name leakage. The node and coordinate names are global; the internal coordinate names have been made stronger.

* Version 1.2.1 (2020-07-06)

    Several changes, both internal and user-visible. These are quite risky, although they *should* be backward-compatible (if the circuit code is correct).

    From the user point of view:
    - there is now a new style of voltages ("raised American")
    - a powerful mechanism for customize voltages, current and flows has been added.

    The internal changes are basically the re-implementation of the macros that draw the path elements (`to[...]`), which have been completely rewritten. Please be sure to read the possible incompatibilities in the manual (section 1.9).

    - Added access to voltages, currents and flows anchors
    - Added "raised american" voltage style
    - Rewrite of the path generation macros
    - Several small bugs fixed (no one ever used some "f^>" options...)

* Version 1.2.0 (2020-06-21)

    In this release, the big change is the rewriting of the voltages output routine. Now all voltage options (american, european, and straight) take into account the shape (square border) of the component. The adjusting parameters are now (at least for passive elements) acting in similar way for all the options, too.

    - Bumped version number to 1.2 (potentially incompatible changes!)
    - Added 1.1.2 checkpoint
    - New path-style not, buffer, and Schmitt logic ports
    - New tutorial (using the "inline not" component)
    - Voltage output routine rewrite; now it takes into account the shape of the component also for "american" and "straight" voltages
    - Several fixes in the logic ports: fixed IEEE `invschmitt` name, added symmetry to the three-style shorthands for the ports, and so on
    - Fixed a gross bug in square poles anchor borders
    - Fixed size of not circles in flip-flops (based on logic ports style)
    - Fixed the order of initial options, to avoid "european" overwriting single options

* Version 1.1.2 (2020-05-17)

    - Blocks and component for three-phase networks (3-lines wire, AC/DC and DC/AC converters blocks and grid node block) added by user `@olfline` on GitHub
    - added transformer sources with optional vector groups for three-phase networks by `@olfline` on Github
    - added subsections to the examples
    - fixed position of american voltages on open circuits (suggested by user `@rhandley` on GitHub)

* Version 1.1.1 (2020-04-24)

    One-line bugfix release for the IEEE ports "not" circle thickness

* Version 1.1.0 (2020-04-19)

    Version bumped to 1.1 because the new logic ports are quite a big addition: now there is a new style for logic ports, conforming to IEEE recommendations.

    Several minor additions all over the map too.

    - added IEEE standard logic ports suggested by user Jason-s on GitHub
    - added configurability to european logic port "not" output symbol, suggested by j-hap on GitHub
    - added `inerter` component by user Tadashi on GitHub

    - fixed a nasty bug for the flat file generation for ConTeXt

* Version 1.0 (2020-02-04)

    And finally... version 1.0 (2020-02-04) of `circuitikz` is released.

    The main updates since version 0.8.3, which was the last release before Romano started co-maintaining the project, are the following --- part coded by Romano, part by several collaborators around the internet:

    - The manual has been reorganized and extended, with the addition of a tutorial part; tens of examples have been added all over the map.
    - Around 74 new shapes where added. Notably, now there are chips, mux-demuxes, multi-terminal transistors, several types of switches, flip-flops, vacuum tubes, 7-segment displays, more amplifiers, and so on.
    - Several existing shapes have been enhanced; for example, logic gates have a variable number of inputs, transistors are more configurable, resistors can be shaped more, and more.
    - You can style your circuit, changing relative sizes, default thickness and fill color, and more details of how you like your circuit to look; the same you can do with labels (voltages, currents, names of components and so on).
    - A lot of bugs have been squashed; especially the (very complex) voltage direction conundrum has been clarified and you can choose your preferred style here too.

A detailed list of changes can be seen below.

* Version 1.0.0-pre3 (not released)

    - Added a Reed switch
    - Put the copyright and license notices on all files and update them
    - Fixed the loading of style; we should not guard against reload

* Version 1.0.0-pre2 (2020-01-23)

    Last additions before the long promised 1.0! In this pre-release we feature a flip-flop library, a revamped configurability of amplifiers (and a new amplifier as a bonus) and some bug fix around the clock.

    - Added a flip-flop library
    - Added a single-input generic amplifier with the same dimension as "plain amp"

    - Fixed minor incompatibility with ConTeXt and Plain TeX

* Version 0.9.7 (2019-12-01)

    The important thing in this release is the new position of transistor's labels; see the manual for details.

    - Fix the position of transistor's text. There is an option to revert to the old behavior.
    - Added anchors for adding circuits (like snubbers) to the flyback diodes in transistors (after a suggestion from @EdAlvesSilva on GitHub).

* Version 0.9.6 (2019-11-09)

    The highlights of this release are the new multiple terminals BJTs and several stylistic addition and fixes; if you like to pixel-peep, you will like the fixed transistors arrows. Additionally, the transformers are much more configurable now, the "pmos" and "nmos" elements have grown an optional bulk connection, and you can use the "flow" arrows outside of a path.

    Several small and less small bugs have been fixed.

    - Added multi-collectors and multi-emitter bipolar transistors
    - Added the possibility to style each one of the two coils in a transformer independently
    - Added bulk connection to normal MOSFETs and the respective anchors
    - Added "text" anchor to the flow arrows, to use them alone in a consistent way

* Version 0.9.5 (2019-10-12)

    This release basically add features to better control labels, voltages and similar text "ornaments" on bipoles, plus some other minor things.

    On the bug fixes side, a big incompatibility with ConTeXt has been fixed, thanks to help from `@TheTeXnician` and `@hmenke` on `github.com`.

    - Fixed internal font changing commands for compatibility with ConTeXt
    - Fixed hardcoded black color in "elko" and "elmech"

* Version 0.9.4 (2019-08-30)

    This release introduces two changes: a big one, which is the styling of the components (please look at the manual for details) and a change to how voltage labels and arrows are positioned. This one should be backward compatible *unless* you used `voltage shift` introduced in 0.9.0, which was broken when using the global `scale` parameter.

    The styling additions are quite big, and, although in principle they are backward compatible, you can find corner cases where they are not, especially if you used to change parameters for `pgfcirc.defines.tex`; so a snapshot for the 0.9.3 version is available.

    - Fixed a bug with "inline" gyrators, now the circle will not overlap
    - Fixed a bug in input anchors of european not ports
    - Fixed "tlinestub" so that it has the same default size than "tline" (TL)

    - introduced options straighlabels, rotatelabels, smartlabels

* Version 0.2.3
    - fixed compatibility problem with label option from tikz
    - Fixed resizing problem for shape ground
    - Variable capacitor
    - polarized capacitor
    - ConTeXt support (read the manual!)
    - nfet, nigfete, nigfetd, pfet, pigfete, pigfetd (contribution of Clemens Helfmeier and Theodor
Borsche)
    - njfet, pjfet (contribution of Danilo Piazzalunga)
    - pigbt, nigbt
    - *backward incompatibility* potentiometer is now the standard resistor-with-arrow-in-the-middle; the old potentiometer is now known as variable resistor (or vR), similarly to variable inductor and variable capacitor
    - triac, thyristor, memristor
    - new property "name" for bipoles
    - fixed voltage problem for batteries in american voltage mode
    - european logic gates
    - *backward incompatibility* new american standard inductor. Old american inductor now called "cute inductor"
    - *backward incompatibility* transformer now linked with the chosen type of inductor, and version with core, too. Similarly for variable inductor
    - *backward incompatibility* styles for selecting shape variants now end are in the plural to avoid conflict with paths
    - new placing option for some tripoles (mostly transistors)
    - mirror path style


* Version 0.2.2 - 20090520
    - Added the shape for lamps.
    - Added options \texttt{europeanresistor}, \texttt{europeaninductor}, \texttt{americanresistor} and \texttt{americaninductor}, with corresponding styles.
    - FIXED: error in transistor arrow positioning and direction under negative \texttt{xscale} and \texttt{yscale}.

* Version 0.2.1 - 20090503
    - Op-amps added
    - added options arrowmos and noarrowmos, to add arrows to pmos and nmos

* Version 0.2 - 20090417
First public release on CTAN
    - *Backward incompatibility*: labels ending with \texttt{:}\textit{angle} are not parsed for positioning anymore.
    - Full use of \TikZ\ keyval features.
    - White background is not filled anymore: now the network can be drawn on a background picture as well.
    - Several new components added (logical ports, transistors, double bipoles, \ldots).
    - Color support.
    - Integration with {\ttfamily siunitx}.
    - Voltage, american style.
    - Better code, perhaps. General cleanup at the very least.

* Version 0.1 - 2007-10-29
First public release
