[Pharo-project] looking for inputField with memory of the last typed entries
Hi I would like to know if an inputField with last typed entry is available in Pharo (if not I will ask benjamin to see what he can do) because we need better widgets. Stef
Stef, With my MVP bias clearly re-stated, is this really the job of the widget, or of the containing/composite presenter? Depending on what behavior you want, it might be a widget/view customization, but it never hurts to ask the question.

Frankly I do not care :) We are not in the situation of discussing about framework that we do not have. Now if you give me a cool framework like MVP (and I know MVP) then I have no problem to optimize it. Now to optimize something you should have something else.

yes It is package in a standalone class? what would be cool is to have a way yo configure it so that when we start to type we see the matching expression. I believe that making the basic widgets more powerful is realllllllly important. Less is more. Stef On May 31, 2011, at 8:07 AM, Alain Plantec wrote:

and, when the field is empty, down arrow open the list. you can navigate with the keyboard or pick one item with the mouse :) cheers Alain
