source: src/Actions/Calculation.hpp

Candidate_v1.6.1
Last change on this file was a82f61, checked in by Frederik Heber <heber@…>, 9 years ago

Added Action::setOptionValue() which allows setting the option via a string.

  • this is preparatory for allowing the creation of MakroActions inside the code. We need to set the options without going through dialogs in some way or another and without being completely inside the Actions as is the case for the COMMAND variants and the python function calls.
  • Property mode set to 100644
