v2.1.5.2

Robot Framework IDE 2.1.5.2

Please see the complete release notes here.

Below is an excerpt of it:

RIDE (Robot Framework IDE) v2.1.5.2 is a new release with some enhancements and bug fixes. The reference for valid arguments is Robot Framework current version, 7.3.2. However, internal library code is originally based on version 3.1.2, but adapted for new versions.

This version supports Python 3.8 up to 3.13 (and also tested on 3.14.b2 with wxPython 4.2.3).

There are some changes, or known issues:

• 🐞 - Rename Keywords, Find Usages/Find where used are not
  finding all occurrences. Please, double-check findings and
  changes.
• 🐞 - Some argument types detection (and colorization) is not
  correct in Grid Editor.
• 🐞 - In Grid Editor, private keywords defined in test suites
  with Name setting, will show with error color even if used
  correctly in another local keyword.
• 🐞 - RIDE DOES NOT KEEP Test Suites formatting or
  structure, causing differences in files when used on other IDE
  or Editors. The option to not reformat the file is not working.
• 🐞 - In Grid Editor, when showing settings, scrolling down with
  mouse or using down is not working. You can change to Text
  Editor and back to Grid Editor, to restore normal behavior.

New Features and Fixes Highlights

• Restored init and main scripts and texteditor, because some changes
  in Grid Editor were not being saved in Text Editor and would be lost.
• Fix faulty cell editor in settings of Grid Editor which would prevent
  to change to Text Editor and Run tabs.
• Added indication of private keywords in Grid Editor, keywords
  will show in Italic, and with error background, when they are
  used outside of Keywords section, or from different files.
• Added indication of private keywords in Details pop-up for
  keywords with tag robot:private or name starting with
  underscore, '_' in Grid Editor.
• Modified the action of key TAB when selecting from
  auto-suggestions list in Grid Editor. Pressing TAB, selects the
  item and continues in cell editor.
• Fix cursor position when editing cells in Grid Editor.
• Added parsing of option --name or -N and Name setting,
  to allow running tests with them set.

Linux users are advised to install first wxPython from .whl package at wxPython.org, or by using the system package manager.
