In other words, think both text and tables as renderable elements (cof cof morphs). Then, since we can make a morph from a text, and a table morph, then both can be combined. Out of the table thinking :-) So by putting a table on the outside, I can make the normal paragraphs individual rows of one column? To make an actual table, it would be some rows with more columns than one? Do the tables morphs allow for merged cells? I will look into it, but I am not too optimistic that I will be able to get anything that looks nice. Best, Kasper

Pillar in-image rendering as RichText

by Kasper Ãsterbye

Cheers, Rendering the Pillar markup inside the Pharo image This is work in (early) progress, but I think it is far enough for a "technology preview". <https://github.com/kasperosterbye/PillarRichTextRender/blob/master/README.m…>Goal of the project The goal of the project is to be able to do better in-image documentation. To do this, I am working on several fronts: 1. Rendering more pillar, expecially I would like to get a solution for tables. 2. Rendering github markdown in addition to pillar markdown. This will allow me to pull markdown from git and display it in-image. 3. Giving the "help-system" some love. 4. In-image tools for writing markdown - a markdown editor 5. A design for keeping the mark-down texts seamlessly outside of the image Reg. 1., I can only figure out how to transform a morphic table into an image, and then add that image to the text (not included atm as I find it so ugly a solution).
