Roassal3 Popups
by Evan Donahue April 1, 2021

April 1, 2021

Hello, Just returning to Pharo after 1000 years and have discovered that Roassal has upgraded to Roassal3. Trying to update my inspector integrations and can't seem to figure out how to get popups working. How can I get popups for the y values in a scatter plot such as the following: RSChart new addPlot: (RSScatterPlot new y: #(1 2 3)). Thanks, Evan

Glamour: fastTables menu separator issue
by Federico.Balaguer March 30, 2021

March 30, 2021

Hello! I came across a problem with Glamour's fastTables, menu separators are not displayed. I have a running example based on PBE2CodeEditor example that shows the problem. I am not sure whether it makes sense to share that here. I spent a couple of hours trying to find the code that generate the menues with no luck (subclasses of GLMMorphicWidgetRenderer) . Could someone give me a hint where to look at? Thanks! Federico -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

Connecting to a MongoDB Atlas Cluster
by Sanjay Minni March 29, 2021

March 29, 2021

Hi can anyone pls help me with an example of connecting to a MongoDB Atlas cluster (their cloud service). My Atlas cluster replica set is at the urls yyyy-shard-00-00.xxxxx.mongodb.net:27017 yyyy-shard-00-01.xxxxx.mongodb.net:27017 yyyy-shard-00-02.xxxxx.mongodb.net:27017 The MongoDB Atlas website specifies the application connectstring as 'mongodb+srv://<username>:<password>@yyyy.xxxxx.mongodb.net/<mydefaultdatabase>?retryWrites=true&w=majority" I saw the doc / example on pharo-nosql/mongotalk but could not figure out in MongoClient - 1. how to get embed the username:password in the connectstring which i feel would be needed, 2. how to specify the default database 3. is it required to specify all three members while Mongo suggests a single part connect string which probably must be covering the cluster thanks ----- cheers, Sanjay -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

UK Smalltalk User Group meeting - Wednesday March 31st
by Giovanni Corriga March 22, 2021

March 22, 2021

The next meeting of the UK Smalltalk User Group will be on Wednesday, March 31st. In this meeting, Juan Vuletich will present a Vector Graphic implementation in Cuis Smalltalk. Graphics for interactive software have traditionally been constrained for performance reasons. The consequence is that most software has serious trouble adapting to higher resolution screens, requires platform specific widget kits, provides limited functionality, and has sub optimal visual quality. But improvements in computing power over the last couple of decades enable a brighter future: Cuis Smalltalk provides a VectorGraphics based implementation of the Morphic UI framework that addresses all these issues. Juan is a long standing member of the Open Source Smalltalk community. He started Cuis Smalltalk ( https://www.cuis-smalltalk.org/ ) 12 years ago and has led it ever since. He has been contributing kernel code to Squeak and the Squeak VM for over 20 years. He holds an Ms.Sc. in Computer Science from the University of Buenos Aires. Given the current COVID-19 restrictions, this will be an online meeting from home. If you'd like to join us, please sign up in advance on the meeting's Meetup page ( https://www.meetup.com/UKSTUG/events/cbklbryccfbgc/ ) to receive the meeting details. Donât forget to bring your laptop and drinks!
