Should we incorporate these changes into the master?

issue-#163 Adding 'Decimal' Tabs to Rulers

Post by Robert »

For the issue see: https://redmine.blackboxframework.org/issues/163
For the discussion see: viewtopic.php?f=41&t=632
For the diffs see: https://redmine.blackboxframework.org/p ... 874da85503
& https://redmine.blackboxframework.org/p ... adeb4f3cf0

I think this is a gernerally very useful new feature.

I am running this poll for only 4 days, if no one disagrees, because that would give me a chance to incorporate it before I am away for a further three weeks.

I attempted to merge this to master (Build 900), but that failed for reasons that I do not understand.

See http://blackboxframework.org/unstable/buildlog.html.

The build now succeeded.

FYI: I made a very small change to the appbuild/build.py script for the --test option.
In this interactive mode the InnoSetup tool required for generating the blackbox setup.exe file
is not visible. The resulting error messages are simply ignored and the --test build succeeds.
This change has nothing to do with the observed build failure but simplifies interactive testing
using the --test option.
