Hi,

You can try this:

composite := GLMCompositePresentation new.
composite pharoPlayground
�� title: 'Script';
�� variableBindings: [ { #x -> 1. #y -> 2 } ].
composite
��openOn: 'x+y'.
��
For the moment only script presentations can have variables.

Btw ��#pharoPlayground ��and #rubricText will be deprecated in the latest version in favour of #pharoScript and #text

Cheers,
Andrei

Hi,

if one has an inspector extension that shows a textual iVar of an object
representing code (using #rubricText, #pharoMethod or�� #pharoPlayground)
as in this example:

��gtInspectorSourceIn: composite
�� <gtInspectorPresentationOrder: 30>
�� ^ composite pharoMethod
�� title: 'Source';
�� smalltalkClass: [ self methodClass ];
�� display: [ self getSource ];
�� act: [ self browse ] icon: GLMUIThemeExtraIcons glamorousBrowse entitled: 'Browse'

What is the best/correct way to set the iVar when the text is typed so the
state of the iVar represents the lively editing in the inspector extension?

Or is there a way to realize this somehow with Glamour ports using the #text port?

you can define an action on a port change:

onChangeOfPort:act:

| browser morph |
�� morph := StringMorph new openInWorld.
�� morph font:(LogicalFont familyName: 'Source Code Pro' pointSize: 30).
�� browser := GLMTabulator new.
�� browser
�� row: #main.
�� (browser transmit)
�� to: #main;
�� andShow: [ :a | a rubricText
�� onChangeOfPort: #text act: [ :text�� |
�� morph contents:text text] ].

�� ^ browser openOn:'type some text'

This will open a StringMorph and a GlamourBrowser.

If you change the text in the browser, it will change the contents of the string morph.

Thanks
