[sword-devel] OSISMorphSegmentation

[David Haslam]

Thanks for the detailed report, Karl.

It's just as I feared.

It also indicates that STEP Bible must do its own thing for such modules.

It displays alternate segments in a different colour.

Best regards, David

There's a single area where all options are turned on/off in a uniform way, driven by the GTK menu files, and how Xiphos discovers the current setting during each chapter redraw. Mostly, I had to check that I had spelled the option right in all the relevant places, to be sure the right effect was being caused.

This image is the result of copy/pasting gdb's textual output from a terminal into gedit and then capturing an image of that.
