This makes a lot of sense.

Having a plain workspace alongside would be perfect for me.

I am using Playground in my 3.0 (now having installed the new version with the nicer menus) and it works well. But this is definitely not what I use as a workspace.

One use case for a plain Workspace is when providing a kind of list of sample commands to customers to use on the image.

Like in: "Open this workspace contents, here are the typical commands for you to use".

Removing this ability and having a large thing popping at the right is really disturbing for these use cases.

Hi,

As you might see, the GTPlayground is called playground not workspace. The main reason for this is that workspace implies the place where work is done, and work is typically associated with creating code.

This is not the intention of the workspace.

Workspace also comes with a history that is associated with actual implementations. While the current GTPlayground might appear to be similar to the workspace, I think the way you can use the latter produces a significant shift.

Furthermore, I think the term playground is more inline with the idea of "playing with live objects". And, in the future, the implementation will likely evolve towards even more liveliness.

It is for this reason that I would prefer that the World menu item gets renamed to Playground.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Doru
