I don't take it bad I learned a lot of things while trying to implement it, that's what is important to me :) I just wanted to have it in pharo whoever it comes from ;). Also, nice article!

Re: [Pharo-users] [ANN] Multiple Desktop support for Pharo 5

by Torsten Bergmann

Hi Julien, sorry for "hijacking" the topic. But I got some time left while traveling allowing me to put my recommended puzzle pieces together myself and as I wrote the code was less time consuming compared to the article. The article should help others to investigate in the goodies code and learn how to do own inspector extensions, spotter models, ... in recent Pharo now. If there is something wrong with the implementation feel free to send me comments/corrections. Also note that the project on STHub is open for commits, so if you find something missing please add it. I would like to keep the "multiple desktops" metaphor instead of "multiple worlds" as it better fits what people know and expect. Additional info: ================ Meanwhile the job run that checks the configurations for the Catalog Browser. So in a fresh and updated Pharo 5 image you can just: - hit SHIFT + ENTER to open the default Spotter - enter "DesktopManager" as a search term to find the project automagically - hit enter to load it So there is no need to rember cumbersome Gofer scripts anymore. Just type and go. After loading you can use the tool as written before: - check the world menu "Desktop" - you can press CTRL + D and then CTRL + A (= Desktop Add) to add a new desktop - you can press CTRL + D and then CTRL + D (= Desktop Desktop) to open the overview (custom spotter for desktop selection) - you can press CTRL + D and then CTRL + P (= Desktop Previous) to navigate to the previous desktop - you can press CTRL + D and then CTRL + N (= Desktop Next) to navigate to the next desktop You can also use the world menu (see another screenshot attached). Hope it will become useful to others as well. We should have cared already back in 2010/2011 when Jochen and Sean raised the issue. On the other side with the nice moldable GT tools introduced now in Pharo 4/5 it was really easy to implement. Thanks T. > Gesendet: Donnerstag, 27.

[ANN] Multiple Desktop support for Pharo 5

by Torsten Bergmann

Julien Delplanque provided this week a goodie to switch between "desktops" - but his initial solution was more or less hiding windows and not really switching between real Pharo worlds/desktops. I gave him some tips what could be done on the pharo-user list. Havent heard from him afterwards. Now I was able to spend a few hours on this topic myself and implemented a full multiple desktop solution myself. This works in Pharo 5 only (currently) and requires latest VM (at least on Windows) from files.pharo.org to get the keyboard shortcuts right. To try: Gofer new smalltalkhubUser: 'TorstenBergmann' project: 'DesktopManager'; configuration; loadDevelopment. The goodie has some nice features like keyboard navigation, world menu integration and even a custom spotter with preview of the desktops. Quick start: =========== - evaluate the above expression in a Pharo 5 image - check the world menu "Desktop" - you can press CTRL + D and then CTRL + A (= Desktop Add) to add a new desktop - you can press CTRL + D and then CTRL + D (= Desktop Desktop) to open the overview - you can press CTRL + D and then CTRL + P (= Desktop Previous) to navigate to the previous desktop - you can press CTRL + D and then CTRL + N (= Desktop Next) to navigate to the next desktop The code is hopefully a good example on how to build a custom spotter, shortcuts, inspector extensions, ... Additionally all this is described in a new article including screenshots and a guide on how to use this new goodie: https://medium.com/@astares/multiple-desktops-for-pharo-5cbc46f3179f Actually the article took more time to write than coding but I hope it helps explaining Pharo and why it is a power tool. Project is on http://www.smalltalkhub.com/#!/~TorstenBergmann/DesktopManager Article and code is still subject to change. Have fun T.
