Replying to [comment:4 hamish]:
> so IIUC [Apply] uses the new settings without saving to the wxrc?
yes, similarly behaves other settings dialogs (vdigit, 3dview,
georectifier).
> I was wondering about that.
why? Check button's tooltip:
{{{
self.btnApply.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnApply)
self.btnApply.SetToolTipString(_("Apply changes for the current session"))
self.btnSave.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnSave)
self.btnSave.SetToolTipString(_("Apply and save changes to user settings
file (default for next sessions)"))
}}}
> which leads to the question of why call it "Apply" and not "Ok"? (I
think Apply is kinda weird in most software, nothing grass specific)
Why OK rather then Apply? Apply seems to be more appropriate for this
functionality.
