They areused to âcustomizeâ your image. Yes but there are implicit. There are there but we do not see them and manipulate them if you see what I mean. And there are static.

Looking forward to see what comes out of it. translate.google.com.... STAGE: Multi-window in Pharo Smalltalk (Software) Context: Our entity regularly develops models of human-machine interfaces (HMI) innovative. Innovation is both in terms of ergonomics at the level of visual or graphic design elements of interaction. The prototyping is often used in meeting with business, hence the use of a dynamic language like Smalltalk that allows fast (and meeting) code modification and interaction elements. The mockup / prototyping of human-machine interfaces is currently produced in SMOCK, a framework developed in Smalltalk prototyping. Pharo Smalltalk is an excellent candidate for the final execution platform framework of prototyping / prototyping, however, some limitations prevent us from Pharo use industrially. Missions: We want to experiment a prototyping environment under Pharo, however, the latter limit the display of HMI within a single OS window. We wish, in relation to the Pharo community, developing multi-windowing. The intern will implement a mechanism for opening and managing multiple windows in Windows and Linux OS minimum. Reuse of existing code in the Pharo community and a reversion of open source code is possible. The candidate will be the interlocutor between Thales and the Pharo community. Evaluate the different candidate solutions to multi-windows from different criteria (performance, robustness of the solution, the solution of portability ...). The solution should anticipate the future and plan to display (primitive video, 2D drawing, OpenGL ...) different visual content. The objective is to develop a multi-window GUI prototype demonstration Pharo to demonstrate the new capabilities and an overview of the performance. Training required: Master Pro 2 or 3rd year of Engineering School. Knowledge required: The trainee should have knowledge of Smalltalk or be motivated by learning it. It will then be given by the man-machine interface design of new generation. Desired period and duration: from January 2015 for a period of 6 months.
