[Pharo-project] TilingWM improvements
by GastÃ³n Dall' Oglio May 31, 2011

May 31, 2011

Laurent, coincidere change this method (o part of): TilingWM>>newTopWindowBoundsInArea: aBlock SystemWindow topWindow bounds: (aBlock value: world clearArea). to this one: TilingWM>>newTopWindowBoundsInArea: aBlock | topWindow | (topWindow := SystemWindow topWindow) isMaximized ifTrue: [ topWindow expandBoxHit. topWindow bounds: (aBlock value: world clearArea) ] ifFalse: [ topWindow bounds: (aBlock value: topWindow bounds) ] For one hand this solve the problem of maximized state on moved window, and for other hand apply recursive "moving" of window based in their current bounds (but not usable display area) if that is not in state maximize (I choose this rule for my convenience). --- When I load new version of this package, I use the Settings to see new version de la barra, but the old version keep visible too, and I use SHIFT-ALT-Click to see the halos and remove this. Is possible clean up of older versions of bar automatically? ---- And I see that you comming work in TWMWindowSnapshot :) I like it, I hate wasting time accommodating the size and position of the windows manually because I want to have another hearing, again and again!

[Pharo-project] Metacello as the system evolves... (Fwd from Seaside-General: Which image for deployment?)
by Sean P. DeNigris May 31, 2011

May 31, 2011

The following is a conversation about not being able to load Seaside into Pharo 1.2 via Metacello (from the Seaside-general list). Shouldn't symbolic versions in Metacello have solved this problem? There should be different package versions tagged stable for each system (1.2.x, 1.3...) as necessary, no? It seems there's not much difference between: Pharo 1.2 vs. Pharo 1.3 and Pharo 1.2 vs. Squeak 4.2 Doesn't symbolic versions finally allow us to have *one* configuration per project that will load into any Squeak/Pharo/etc? As a Metacello user, it would be comforting to know that there is only one configuration, or needing to find the /right/ one replaces one problem (dependencies) with another. >> * loading Seaside via Metacello into Pharo (although I got an error in >> Pharo >> 1.2.2-12353) > > That is a known problem (see > http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/seaside-dev/2011-May/004786.html > and http://www.iam.unibe.ch/pipermail/moose-dev/2011-May/008309.html) > Some configurations that the Seaside Metacello Configuration depens on > have been updated to Pharo 1.3 breaking all users of older versions of > Pharo. > > I was told that the (Pharo?)

Agreed, tabs won, therefore we need to implement it and this will be a big step forward for usability of our tools. Not only for newcomers, for us too. You will see sooner or later that tabbed windows are better than full ones. I had such experience from VW and other VisualWorkers would probably confirm that. Ok, a right combo of both, tabbed and full. Say two browsers windows with a reasonable amount of methods open in tabs. And adding back button .. well that would be near nirvana considering current state :) Best regards Janko -- Janko MivÅ¡ek Aida/Web Smalltalk Web Application Server http://www.aidaweb.si
