Status: Accepted Owner: damien.p...@gmail.com Labels: Type-RequestForEnhancement Importance-Low New issue 3659 by damien.p...@gmail.com: Task bar appearance does not make sense http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3659 Pharo 1.2rc2 Pharo core version: 12330 The buttons in the task bar are: - frontmost window: gray background + black text - background windows: gray background + gray text - hidden windows: blue gradient + gray text To me these are bad affordances, because gray text signifies "inactive or hidden" and color background means "active" or "current" (see the instance/class side buttons in the browser. So I'd change the appearances to reflect that: - window visibility = text color (black = visible, gray = hidden) - gradient color = blue for the frontmost window\
Comment #1 on issue 3659 by tudor.gi...@gmail.com: Task bar appearance does not make sense http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3659 I agree, but I could not get it to work like I wanted for the Glamorous Theme. It would be great if someone could take a look at this.

This looks fine with the stock themes, but I added two new color methods to UITheme to make it work, which is probably not desirable.

Comment #4 on issue 3659 by ncalexan...@gmail.com: Task bar appearance does not make sense http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3659 Hmm, it was very hard to get the slice mechanism to do anything sensible, so how about a change set instead? Attachments: Taskbar.1.cs 2.6 KB

Comment #6 on issue 3659 by ncalexan...@gmail.com: Task bar appearance does not make sense http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3659 This is what I did. I then saved the slice to my local repo, and played it back in a fresh image; that worked fine. I then saved that slice to the PharoInbox repo (after it was loaded and working into a fresh image), and Tudor tells me it doesn't work. I also had tons of trouble getting the slice to not record hundreds of spurious changes to Polymorph-Widgets that I didn't make. I will attempt to address another issue and try the process again, but for this issue, somebody else can cut the slice into PharoInbox.
Comment #7 on issue 3659 by stephane...@gmail.com: Task bar appearance does not make sense http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3659 Yes dependent packages are not moved. the composite pattern is not complete. We hijiacked dependencies to have a group of packages saved and loaded together. Now there is no problem we accept cs too :)
Comment #8 on issue 3659 by ncalexan...@gmail.com: Task bar appearance does not make sense http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3659 I have cut another slice into PharoInbox. The slice package itself seems empty, but its dependent (Polymorph-Widgets) is not.

Comment #11 on issue 3659 by tudor.gi...@gmail.com: Task bar appearance does not make sense http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3659 No, it's not. It affects UITheme. It should be integrated in Pharo Core.
