There is no way at the moment.

Just out of curiosity, why do you need to select an item if you do not want to see the details?

This is for two reasons

1) I have items with big strings inside and it takes too long to load in the new inspector sub-window.

Why should it take too long? Is it because printString is too expensive? In that case, perhaps you might want to make printString cheaper and offer a separate presentation for your object that shows the full contents.

I don't know, I have this 7.7Mb XML file, opened the Time Profiler with:

'DLoop_Bovino_31-10-14-Alignment.xml' asFileReference contents inspect.

it took almost 6 minutes to open the inspector.

Here is the link to the file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/pzw88gg3wyfkf8o/DLoop_Bovino_31-10-14-Alignment.zip?dl=0

Here is the full report

- 350675 tallies, 359630 msec.

Hmm, Something is strange. I open the inspector on the same file in 1192 ms. It takes so long because the first presentation is a text presentation of the contents of that file. What image do you use? Is it possible that you have extra . Could you make it available?

I am using #40463 in Windows 8.1 x64. This is how I download the image

$ wget -O- get.pharo.org/40+vm | bash

2) I select the item to send a message to it, or bring a pop-up menu to remove the item (I have implemented it in the old inspector and I would like to port it to Pharo 4)

This implies that you actually need a custom presentation. For such a custom presentation you can suppress the propagation of selection. If you tell me your use case in more details I can try to guide you.

My use case is I want to add or remove items from an Inspector/Explorer.

The items are classified objects and the user curates false positives.

Another item I used to have is "Serialize" the inspector contents (or from a specific item) so that one could import the curated data set and review.

Do you mean items from collections in general, or items stored as a collection in a specific object? If you mean the latter, you can create a custom presentation just for that object and add all the actions you want. Do you want to give it a try? If yes, let me know the more specific use case and I can help :)

I would be glad to get some help :)

I tried subclassing GTInspector. I see you implemented menu items in GTObjectVariablesBrowser.

So question is how could I implement my own "GTObjectVariablesBrowser" and link to GTInspector subclass?

Thank you Doru.
