A new release was published a month after v2.1, and we hope to have more frequent releases.
The new version 2.1.1 contains these fixes:
- Fixed long arguments in fixtures appearing splitted in Grid Editor. Still, arguments info will not be correct at calling step.
- Fixed double action on Linux when pressing the DEL key.
This is also the new way to have Development versions. They are now coming from the branch develop, and the branch master will keep the previous released version.
An important part of the code of RIDE was modified to use the most updated code from its original project. This part of the code is responsible for reading the user configuration from the settings.cfg file. But now with this process (it is a git submodule), that code is not packaged when we upgrade from the RIDE->Help->Check for Upgrade. Then RIDE will not start because this part of the code is essencial. As a workaround, you can download and extract the code from this page https://robotframework.transformidea.com/, see the content at the right side which is similar to the folowing:
- Download https://robotframework.transformidea.com/RIDE/packages/configobj.zip
- Extract to robotide/preferences/
- You should have something like:
(python path)/site-packages/robotide/preferences/configobj
