      Hi Krish,

I tryed to install http://www.squeaksource.com/PharoGoodies/ into Pharo 3.0, but I got several errors.
Can you give me some hints for testing the package with the PDF you sent?
Many thanks

Ciao

Lorenzo

  The PDF documentation of the framework. Obliged for review/ read and comment and try out the first release..

  Ben,

   I have done a first read of the Spec and I will get my head around how this should be converge.. Will work on that.

   Though I must note that the spec framework I have laid out is simplistic, flexible and uses the current framework of classes/ morphs without the ValueModel wrapper. Perhaps there is a common ground there, but I would like to emphasize on flexibility of spec and explicit construction to mix and built out has been central to the thought process.

    Obliged for feedback ...

    For details and links..
    Sharing this little framework that should go some way to ease creating large applications ( currently morphic oriented).

    AbstractMorphicView subclass: #MyNewView â¦

    #createMorphsSpecs

    ^{

    âpanel1â² -> #SomeOtherView.
    âlabel1â² -> #LabelMorph.
    âtext1â² -> #PluggableTextMorph.
    âbutton1â² -> #PluggableButtonMorph.
    }

    layoutSpecsArray

    ^{
    âwidgetNameInMorphsDictionaryâ -> {
    #fractions -> (0 @ 0 corner: 1 @ 0.5). â fractional value 0 to 1 range â
    #offsets -> (10 @ 10 corner: 0 @ 0). â offsets relative to the fractional position â
    }.

    ââ¦ add other widgetspecsâ¦â
    }

    Thats it.. you should have a prototype UI neatly laid out.. and then specify: #morphsPrimaryPropertiesSpecs and #morphsSecondaryPropertiesSpecs for full functionality that composes views inside views and scales well.

    AbstractSimpleMorphicView can make it simpler for TableLayout stuff without requiring #layoutSpecsArray.

    ..... the main post has other details and links to package...
