Comment #2 on issue 3753 by Ken.Dic...@whidbey.com: SimpleMorphic Layout Code missing http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3753 I wrote the Solitaire code originally to understand layout in Squeak. When I started looking at SimpleMorphic, but could did not find what I needed, so I ported the code to Cuis and then did the obvious backport. What would be the suggested strategy to get save/restore working? One natural thing would be to use Cuis' FileDialog, but this seems un-Pharo. Suggestions?

Comment #4 on issue 3753 by Ken.Dic...@whidbey.com: SimpleMorphic Layout Code missing http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3753 I have two sets of code for save/restore of solitaire games, one which works in the Pharo port of the Game (ported from Squeak) and one which works in Cuis. The Cuis StandardFileMenu has not been ported to Pharo SimpleMorphic. The Pharo FileDialogWindow has not yet been integrated into Pharo SimpleMorphic. So the "Save Game" and "Restore Game" buttons on the solitaire windows are useless. Given my uneducated reading of the code, my belief is that Pharo's input/output stream implementation has diverged from that of Cuis. It appears to me that some design decisions have to be made as to the style/strategy of integrating file dialogs into Pharo SimpleMorphic. I was wondering as to suggested strategy/style, useful rubrics (rules of how to do things) or other hints. Do you have any opinions on the best way to proceed -- or better yet can you supply me with the code? Thanks much, -KenD --- [PS: I note that animated card moves are quite slow in Pharo SimpleMorphic compared to Pharo or Cuis].

Comment #6 on issue 3753 by fernando...@gmail.com: SimpleMorphic Layout Code missing http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3753 Regarding the FileDialogs, the current mechanism for requesting them in Pharo (Morphic) is to go through the UIManager. For instance, UIManager default confirm: 'Yes' label: 'Are you there?'. For the specific one you mentioned, browse the remaining methods of UIManager in the method category 'ui-requests' Hope it helps
