[2.0.1] IDE: script load: absolute image filenames produce "not found" errors

How do you set a value for g_Running_Version?

Home_Directory = os.environ['HOME']
print "Home_Directory",Home_Directory
if Home_Directory == "/Users/Jeff":
    g_Running_Version = "Mac"

If I understand right:
The problem comes up, when running on Mac and
if g_Running_Version == "Mac"

does not end up as True.
So you get your Linux image file names.

So you have to find out, why
g_Running_Version
does not contain "Mac" at this place.

or use
Settings.isMac()
to decide, wether you are on macOS.

No it’s not when running it’s when you first load the script in the IDE

to Clarify
This is a Bug in the IDE

work around
    # do not have a string that contains ".png"
    v_dot = "." ; v_png = "png"
    v_Sikuli_Image = "/home/jeff/SikuliScripts_Linux/Subs/Images/Sikuli"+v_dot+v_png

This is my Guess
When Loading a script in the IDE - the IDE "APPEARS" to looks up all items that end with ".png" and if not found then reports them as a an Error (see below)
It cannot evaluate when loading what it is reading, it can only do this at Runtime
The Items that I have reported as Errors are Either on an If Test that do not execute at Runtime or are not the full path of the image as it is preceded by a string that is not available until Runtime.

========================================
These errors do not effect Runtime
and removal of these from the IDE output is only a
NICE TO HAVE
========================================
I am reporting my Opinions on the new version 2 releases
If my Opinion is just a distraction then please advise
e.g. Another Item I have encountered and re-coded is
        wheel(Location(865, 568), WHEEL_DOWN, 25)
        and
        wheel(Location(865, 568), WHEEL_UP, 25)
        seemed to be reversed between Linux and Imac
========================================

After having finally understood your problem, I would have suggested, to simply switch off the image display in the IDE for now.

But of course you might change your code in the way, you found out.

I will check and revise the behaviour. Will be available in 2.0.2 (end of next week).

--- mouse wheel
indeed, on Mac in the standard the wheel direction is inverted according to the "natural" behaviour as defined by Mac.
There is an option to change this, if on Mac:
Settings.WheelNatural = False

After having digged a little deeper, I have decided to make a more general solution.
