Re: [Pharo-project] Multiple desktops
by H. Hirzel May 3, 2012

May 3, 2012

How come? Maybe I should have chosen 'Multiple desktops' as the subject line. I just downloaded Pharo 1.4 a few days ago and with only one screen I feel quickly limited. How are people dealing with this? Having different desktops for a system is not a uncommon thing at all. --Hannes On 5/2/12, Esteban Lorenzano <estebanlm(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I propose to just close the issue... having different words don't seems to > match with current pharo approach and future envisioned scenarios. > (I'm sorry if someone is expecting that) > > best, > Esteban > > On May 2, 2012, at 3:28 PM, Marcus Denker wrote: > >> >> On May 2, 2012, at 3:23 PM, H.

So do you like the issue? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: <pharo(a)googlecode.com> Date: Wed, May 2, 2012 at 11:54 PM Subject: [Pharo-bugtracker] Issue 5782 in pharo: Close ALL windows, no matter if they have unchanged changes To: pharo-bugtracker(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr Status: Accepted Owner: marianopeck Labels: Type-Bug New issue 5782 by marianopeck: Close ALL windows, no matter if they have unchanged changes http://code.google.com/p/**pharo/issues/detail?id=5782<http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=5782> Hi guys. Lots of time I found in a situation where I want: 1) To close ALL type of windows (not necessary browsers) such as worksapces and transcripts. 2) To close all windows EVEN if they have unsaved changes. I have added a new entry in "World menu" -> "Windows" -> "Delete all windows discarding edits" that does exactly that. So...do you like it? if true, I can put it to review/integrate. ______________________________**_________________ Pharo-bugtracker mailing list Pharo-bugtracker(a)lists.gforge.**inria.fr<Pharo-bugtracker(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr> http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/**cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/**pharo-bugtracker<http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-bugtracker> -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com

[Pharo-project] Jenkins status icons
by Sean P. DeNigris May 3, 2012

How do you get the icon to turn green on a successful build? Jenkins is picking up my test report and showing 0 failures, but the icon is blue instead of green.

Re: [Pharo-project] PDF4Smalltalk (was: Artefact - a PDF framework)
by Christian Haider May 3, 2012

May 3, 2012

Done :-) : http://www.smallcharts.de/download/PDFSourcesV126.zip (I don't want to learn how to use git right now...) Version 1.2.6 filed out from VW 7.8.1 with the FileOut30 goodie in Squeak/Pharo format. See https://gitorious.org/pdf4smalltalk/pages/PackageStructure for the package structure. (Package "Fonts for Windows" could not be filed out... - only needed for the FontExplorer (UI for looking into font structures)) Happy browsing (the runtime code alone is 1.7 MB)... If you want to really get a look of it, you should definitely let it run, i.e. get VW and load it.

That is simple: in smallCharts, the product I use PDF for, I do have more or less elaborate models of graphical objects and text. But these are very much tied to the application and quite specific for my needs so that I don't think it is too useful for general consumption. Instead, some general abstractions/concepts should be developed bottom up based on broader use. Christian

Of course, I may be > completely wrong about PDF4Smalltalk, since I've not seen the full code > base. I have not looked at Artefact, but from what I read, these are different things, I guess. PDF4Smalltalk is a system library providing full access to PDF. PDF objects are regular Smalltalk objects which you can read from PDF files or create them with code and write them as PDF. The PDF basics are quite complete and robust (I use it for a few years in production now), but there are also lots of features desired :-) (TrueType fonts and bitmap images to name a few). It deals purely with PDF and does not add any higher concepts like tables and other layouting facilities - in fact not even proper classes for graphics or text... (high on my list when I find time). It is like painting on a canvas: you are completely responsible for the placement of everything. To deal with that, Bob Nemec implemented Report4PDF which uses Seaside like layouting for a report generator. It is done, works and is quite nice! See http://smalltalk-bob.blogspot.de/2012/01/pdf-report-and-law-of-demeter.h tml I'd love if someone would port this to Pharo! I would help with answering questions, but I have not time to do anything substantial in the moment... Cheers, Christian
