>> yes you are right, but also you are digressing :)
>> my question is simple: do you think this small change can help or is useless?

is it not enough that I said "��I think it makes sense to display only the name of the repository instead of its web location��" ?

My philosophy on GUI design is to keep it as simple as possible (noob friendly )and make as customisable as possible (experienced user friendly).��

So in this case a section displaying paths can be made hidden by default and the user will be able to make it unhidden. This way none will complain or have a good reason to complain about the change and should not be difficult to implement. ��

I don't like the approach of monticello of "let put everything in a single GUI " , its near impossible to understand it without documentation and frankly its not that complex to justify this difficulty.��

I happen to have such a laptop the 2010 macbook air. Lets be sincere most coders have normal sided monitors (20''+ for desktop , 15''+ laptop) and a FULL HD resolution is the standard nowdays. I have an air but my main work is with retina 27'' 2013 imac. I use air when I am in the move or just in the bed before going to sleep hacking pharo.��

I know coders that also love working with 2 monitors.��

Its impossible to create a design that fits all unless the gui is highly dynamic like what modern websites are doing nowdays.��

So there is definetly a lot of room for improvement on GUI design for Pharo and small size monitors is not ��the main reason to change the design. A good excuse would be as Stef puts it most of time "we dont have the people or the money to do this in the near future".��

But even for me with retina display and 27'' the gui design is a big issues because I end up opening tons of pharo windows.��

I hope I do my small part to help the overall gui experience with pharo and maybe others will join too to make "pharo is yours" reality.��
