[Pharo-project] Tiling Window Manager
The concept and look of TWM is cool, but for me it groups things in a way that is non-helpful. I never want to tile "all the browsers" or "all the workspaces". I want to group tools logically, e.g. "show only the tools related to fixing bug 1234". -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Tiling-Window-Manager-tp4226499p4226499.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
How would you group / identify related windows ? Actually TWM has these ways for grouping windows: - worlds: http://magaloma.blogspot.com/2011/06/multiple-worlds-for-twm.html (Pharo 1.4): http://magaloma.blogspot.com/2011/07/twm-docking-windows.html - tabs: (GroupWindowMorph new openInWindowLabeled: 'Window organizer') extent: 400@400 - dock: DockingWindowMorph new openInWorld. but needs some work to be really nice.

Cool, I retract. Let me play with those and report back! -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Tiling-Window-Manager-tp4226499p4226583.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

These don't work on Pharo 1.3. They open, but do not accept morphs dropped on them. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Tiling-Window-Manager-tp4226499p4258369.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Yes, only in Pharo 1.4. If you want to make it work on Pharo 1.3, you should load these changesets before loading TWM: http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=4391 Laurent

Does anyone have this working? I loaded the change sets (do they have to be loaded in a particular order?) and then TWM and TWM's tabbed morphs still didn't accept drops. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Tiling-Window-Manager-tp4226499p4267835.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
