Re: [Pharo-dev] [ANN] RenoirSt 1.0.0 Release for Pharo 3.0

by Torsten Bergmann

Hi Gabriel, Â nice work - now designers should start learning Smalltalk to be able to refactor large style definitions :) Â Some feedback: ============= the new "RenoirSt" project unfortunately conflicts with the "Unit" package when both get loaded from the config browser in Pharo 3.0: Â - RenoirSt loaded: Â "2 px" returns an instance of CssLength (px is an extension method on Integer) Â - Units loaded: Â Â "2 px" returns an instance of UnitValue (px is an extension method on Number) as you have defined own custom "units" in category "RenoirSt-Units". Â I would really like to see that RenoirSt is reusing the common Units package instead of reinventing/conflicting as the Unit package already provides pixels, millimeters, ... support including conversion. Reuse is keyÂ and would avoid duplicated effort.Â Â For instance Artefact, the PDF framework is using Units as a prerequisite already too - as it alsoÂ has to deal with mm, pixels, points, ...Â Â Should be no problem to add missing CSS lengths like #em to Units project as well. Just ask Marcus Denker to add you as a contributor to http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~MarcusDenker/Units/ Then add Units as a prerequisite similar to ConfigurationOfArtefact and use it in your code.Â Â Â Regarding features: =================== For Seaside there is a project called "Seafox" generating Seaside #renderContentOn: methods from HTML. http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/seaside/2010-August/023993.html Maybe you want to build something similar for #cssContentOn: to support a better roundtrip with designers.

Re: [Pharo-dev] Touch Events VM changes

Rick <self(a)je77.com>: > Hi Sergi, > > Based on my experience developing touch interfaces since 2007, I believe > in touch. > DonÂ´t get me wrong, I like touch and non-traditional interfaces in general. In fact there are five android devices at home, counting phones and tablets. I also experimented with voice and webcam control for my home theatre. I just think that they are optimal for some scenarios and not-so-optimal for others, and that it wouldnÂ´t be an improvement to make all devices touch-only. As you yourself point out: > You just have to take advantage of what touch does well (faster, more > precise routes; multi-touch gestures; bimanual interaction) and stay clear > of things it does poorly (precise touch down, covering the target with the > finger). > Both have their strengths and weaknesses. Mice have multiple buttons (I use the wheel and the back/forward buttons a lot, both for those functions and as configurable controls in certain games) and are easily identifiable as distinct input devices, while touch interfaces allow more direct (not necessarily precise) control over the actions, taking things like pointer acceleration out of the equation. Almost everyone can draw a lowercase 'g' on a touch screen, but doing it with a mouse takes some skill (well, and a decent mouse). As a more concrete use case, trying to craft some pixel art in a touch device can quickly become tedious. I certainly wouldnÂ´t mind at all having one or two tactile screens in my desk. That said, I once had an interesting conversation with a costumer, in which she told me that she couldnÂ´t play World of Warcraft with her tactile screen because random passing-by insects kept pressing her skills/spells buttons at the worst times :) Cheers, Sergi

Re: [Pharo-dev] Touch Events VM changes

by Igor Stasenko

Jeff, since you running linux you can look at what we have done with Ronie not long ago. Basically we changed VM and removed all window/event management code and instead do everything at image side. I think it would be good if you can try and add multi-touch events support to the code. If you wanna try, you need to build new VM first, and follow this: https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/12743/OSWindow-integration Then you can look at OSWindow package (its X11 part) and see what is needed to support multi-touch events. You should build VM from sources taken from here: https://github.com/ronsaldo/pharo-vm On 11 March 2014 11:37, J.F.
