Parenthis not required for operations? #106

Closed jeromeip closed 10 years ago

Disclaimer: Forgive me as this is a "newbie" report so maybe not an actual issue!

I read that mathematic operations now need parenthesis (since less 1.4.0). However, my declaration without parenthesis:

border-radius: 12em / 3em;

was interpreted unexpectedly as an operation and became:

border-radius: 4em;

So I had to escape it this way:

border-radius: ~"12em / 3em";

to get the proper result.

Is this normal?!

marklagendijk commented 10 years ago

@jeromeip yes, this is normal, because it strict math has to be explicitly enabled: --strict-math=on|off requires brackets. This option may default to on and be removed in the future.

WinLess currently has no way to allow you to set such options. Questions are always welcome. If you would want support for this feature, please open a feature request for it.
