Re: [Pharo-project] [squeak-dev] World menu OCompletion-like algorithm
Hi Sean. I wanted that too. I remember it was one of the things I missed more as I come from Eclipse world. There I used to have ctrl + F7 or similar. There is something similar in Squeak/Pharo. Open a couple of windows (browser, workspace, transcript, test runnerr, etc) and then, in the world, do a "shift + click" ... It would be great to have a short cut for that cheers mariano On Sun, Apr 25, 2010 at 8:11 PM, Sean P. DeNigris <sean@clipperadams.com>wrote:
Could the logic of OCompletion - that you're most likely looking for one of the last three things you looked for - be applied to the world menu? That is - put the last three selections at the top?

Cool feature, thanks. And, it seems that it shows a list of currently open windows, which is different from 'the last three types of objects that I dealt with.' Use case (contrived): I'm working in a sub-flow that requires me to constantly open a Transcript window - say I'm manually testing (I know, disgusting, lol) code that closes any open Transcript windows. So I want to reopen Transcript widnows via the world menu over and over between tests. The 'all open windows menu' doesn't help, but having Transcript pinned temporarily at the top of the world menu would be very convenient. Btw of course I realize there are ways to do this (e.g. dragging the Transcript menu item out of the menu onto the desktop), but having the top three dynamically, automatically updated is what I'm toying with. - Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Re-squeak-dev-World-menu-OCompletion-like-algorithm-tp...

A useful trick is that you can type in menus to select items. That's not the same, but still might help. Romain On Apr 25, 2010, at 4:41 PM, Sean P. DeNigris wrote:

Romain, now I remember...isn't WorkingSet something similar to what he wants ? Sean, you can test it. Read: http://forum.world.st/ANN-WorkingSet-td1296111.html#a1296111 Cheers Mariano On Mon, Apr 26, 2010 at 9:21 PM, Romain Robbes <romain.robbes@gmail.com>wrote:

WorkingSet looks way cool! It does for the browser what I was suggesting we do for the world menu. I will code something up for everyone to play with. Stand by...
