RIDE (Robot Framework IDE) v2.2.4 is a new release with some enhancements and bug fixes. The reference for valid arguments is Robot Framework current version, 7.4.2. However, internal library code is originally based on version 3.1.2, but adapted for new versions.

This version supports Python 3.9 up to 3.14.

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.
• 🐞 - 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.
• 🐞 - In Files Explorer, when in floating window, the files tree is not always using all available space. Do a small resize of window to redraw.
• 🐞 - The Test Suites Explorer, may be visible or hidden with F12, or toggled floating/docked, but content may disappear.You should try to make it reappear by toggling Files Explorer, F11, or by editing settings.cfg.

- Fixed 'background assign' setting in Grid Editor preferences.
- Changed Auto-Save to only save when user is not typing, and if code is in error show message in status bar.
