[Pharo-project] cog vm and copy/paste
by Norbert Hartl Sept. 20, 2010

Sept. 20, 2010

I started today using cog vm. I just downloaded the ones from Eliots site: Cog.app.tgz. I'm using it along with a 12142 core image. With this combination I don't have copy&paste. The menu is there but items are greyed out. Keyboard shortcuts don't work as well. Any hints on this? Thanks, Norbert

[Pharo-project] Custom World menu for own apps
by Torsten Bergmann Sept. 20, 2010

Sept. 20, 2010

Just for the records: in Pharo 1.2. it is now possible to define an own custom pragma that is used to define a world menu. This is especially usefull when you create a (commercial) application based on Pharo. How it works: ============= 1. Define your new world context menu by providing class methods with your own custom world menu entries. Instead of using the usual "worldMenu" pragma we use a custom pragma, here "myAppWorldMenu": menuCommandOn: aBuilder <myAppWorldMenu> (aBuilder item: #'About MyApp') action: [ 'HelloWorld' inspect ]; icon: ThemeIcons pharoIcon 2. Switch the world state to use the custom pragram: WorldState desktopMenuTitle: 'My shiny App'. WorldState desktopMenuPragmaKeyword: 'myAppWorldMenu' If you want the old one back just evaluate: WorldState desktopMenuTitle: 'World'. WorldState desktopMenuPragmaKeyword: 'worldMenu' Maybe someone can add this to the open pharo book or give me an account, a short howto and time to include it. -- Neu: GMX De-Mail - Einfach wie E-Mail, sicher wie ein Brief!

[Pharo-project] ThemeSettings>>#menuSelectionColor: should return self
by Sven Van Caekenberghe Sept. 20, 2010

Sept. 20, 2010

I was playing with the new Pro theme, and this bit me hard (crashed my image several times before I found out why): ThemeSettings>>#menuSelectionColor: should return self not a Color, just like all other setters, otherwise the cascades in UITheme class>>#newDefaultSettings won't work, although a final #yourself would be good style there too.

[Pharo-project] Community in the IDE
by laurent laffont Sept. 20, 2010

Sept. 20, 2010

Hi, an idea I haven't found the courage to implement but may not be hard and can have an impact (at least fun to code). - Write / put a chat server on seasidehosting|INRIA|whatever - Pharo image includes a chat client per default - uses Author as nickname So as soon as we open an image we are connected to other users. Can be interesting in courses as students are directly connected to *real* developpers while learning (and students love to chat :). So we can exchange snippets instantly, ask questions, ... Someone ? Cheers, Laurent Laffont http://pharocasts.blogspot.com/ http://magaloma.blogspot.com/

[Pharo-project] UI states
by Gary Chambers Sept. 20, 2010

Sept. 20, 2010

I might be nice for the appearance of all controls, windows etc. to adhere to a standard set of UI states as identified: Enabled Enabled Mouse over Enabled Mouse down inside Enabled Mouse down outside (*) Enabled Selected Enabled Selected Mouse over Enabled Selected Mouse down inside Enabled Selected Mouse down outside (*) Disabled Disabled Mouse over (*) Disabled Mouse down inside (*) Disabled Mouse down outside (*) Disabled Selected Disabled Selected Mouse over (*) Disabled Selected Mouse down inside (*) Disabled Selected Mouse down outside (*) And repeat for additional "inactive" (non-primary/top window) (*) indicates a nice to have, rather than strictly necessary... Thoughts appreciated beforehand. Anything missing, suggestions for fallback (don't want to have to do all for everything)?... Perhpas worth a tutorial/help/etc. for those making new widgets. I'm sure I discussed this with Igor before, but not sure I had a response. Regards, Gary

[Pharo-project] VM Plugins internal vs external
by Torsten Bergmann Sept. 20, 2010

Sept. 20, 2010

>From what i know, it has more to do with having smaller sized vm's, than >with efficiency reasons. Yes, and with security. Thats why FFI is external. If you remove it all code (downloaded or not) can only use built in primitives and its not possible to call OS API's and harm your computer.
