does the absence of replies imply that there is no portability layer offering a dialect-independent API to GUI, graphics and network functions yet ? -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/portable-smalltalk-how-tp4118832p4123793.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

It is really really easy to add the shortcut once the functionality is working. Of course, once Keymappins is integrated in Pharo 1.4 and if the rest is interested as well, we can put it by default in pharo :) > Don't understand why it is hidden > in Settings browser>>appearance>>desktop > > (IMHO it does not belong there at all > it's not a Setting but just a window state..) > > For now, I've solved this by creating this little helper, > which, due to my laziness to give it coordinates, > drops a button in the upper left corner. > Mais enfin, it works. > > The class: > > SimpleButtonMorph subclass: #FullScreenFlipFlopMorph > instanceVariableNames: '' > classVariableNames: '' > poolDictionaries: '' > category: 'TGUtil-One' > > with just this two instance methods: > > initialize > super initialize. > self > target: self; > label: 'Full Screen'; > color: Color orange; > actionSelector: #toggle; > openInWorld "target is self is Smalltalk;" > toggle > Display toggleFullScreen > > In a workspace brought to life with evaluating > > fullScreenFlipFlop := FullScreenFlipFlopMorph new. > > > Another question: > > As 1.3 uses a cog VM. > Is the seasidehosting.st > still using a non-cog VM? > This would imply a cog VM > based image would not run on > the seasidehosting? > > > What happened to the user window styles? > (I only see Default and DemoMode) > I liked the sort of Aqua themes (I have 7 apples, they are real and in the > kitchen :o) > > > Kind Regards > TedvG > > > > > > > > > > > > -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com

Why not subclassing? As a general answer I'd say: Subclassing is a very strong (and static) relationship, and in Pharo we have only single inheritance + traits, so inheritance is a single shot gun :). Splitting the behavior from the button opens you a door in your design. You can design button actions with shortcuts, or undo actions, and choose your own inheritance criteria suiting your needs. Just that, it lets an open door for richer designs. Now, the ammount of code for one or other solution is pretty the same too, you just add one class with the toggle behavior the first one inherits from Button and the other does not), and then the instantiation code should not differ too much.
