Re: [Pharo-users] Playground and Smalltalk script

At every step, Spotter shows you the searches defined for the object you are looking at. The very first object is an instance of GTSpotter itself. If you dive in an object, the search will be performed within the context of that object. In your case, if you dive in an .st file, the Spotter will try to search within that context. As there is no search, it will show an empty pane. It is not ideal, but at the time we did not find a better solution.

Okay, activate the preview by default, nicer, not sure if it should be activated after all. The Ctrl-Right dives in still produces empty frame. Is it because dive-in has no operation on .st scripts?

That's the way I work as well, especially because I found that on Mac apparently you have to close all open images before Launcher will open again from the Dock. ----- Cheers, Sean -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

Re: [Pharo-users] Updating a P7 image

by Esteban Lorenzano

Hi, the update never worked, so you never updated pharo executing that menu entry ;) the appropriate way to âupdateâ is to replace your image with a newer one. cheers, Esteban > On 16 Apr 2018, at 21:15, nacho <0800nacho(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > Sorry to ask this potentially stupid question > I'm currently using P6.1, but started to take a look at P7. > I've noticed that "Software Update" disappeared from the main menu. > What is the correct way of updating the P7 image now? > Thanks in advance > Nacho > > > > > ----- > Nacho > Smalltalker apprentice. > Buenos Aires, Argentina. > -- > Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html >

Hi, I did try out. Indeed, the preview is deactivated by default. Please use Ctrl+P for toggling preview. Ctrl+Right dives in the object.

Hi, The preview happens with Ctrl+p (or clicking on the large gray arrow that goes out of the window frame). Ctrl+Right goes inside the selected object and tries to search there.

The issue can be seen in the built at https://www.dropbox.com/s/a4wb7c6od4fdl9k/DrGeo.app-18.06a.zip?dl=0 In the world menu, just select "Open script", Spotter is open in a folder full of .st scripts, Ctrl-Left does not preview the script content, any idea? Hilaire -- Dr. Geo http://drgeo.eu

Re: [Pharo-users] [Pharo-Launcher] call for tests on Windows

Microsoft allows devs to download VMs for Windows 7, 8, & 10 that work with VirtualBox, Vagrant, VmWare, Parallels, & HyperV here: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/ They last 90 days and you can install Pharo on them.
