Spec: Setting rows height of a pictures list

by Matteo

Hi, I've created a list of pictures, i.e. a widget based on ListModel where each item is a ImageModel. When the widget is displayed I get list window with very thin rows. Is there a way to control the ListModel rows height? Thanks, Matteo

Re: [Pharo-users] [vwnc] small examples to show the tools

When I made the presentation in the Greek Hackespace in Athens, I tried to illustrate how Smalltalk is a live organism. Took me 10 minutes to do that. The rest, 20 minutes, was spent with me debugging the GUI of ChronosManager, I inserted a bug and show how I fixed it without the GUI stoping and of course demonstrated the use of halos and the inspector.

Re: [Pharo-users] Cover for PBE5

by Dimitris Chloupis

I am not offended but my email was offended apparently. It did not allow me to expand the messages to reply to you , lol. I guess computers have feelings too. None has to like my style, obviously. Neither you have to like the end result. But I would be lying to say that this was created by accident. I knew from start what I wanted to create and I am proud that I got so far. Took a lot of effort but it was well worth it. Tin tin is a fun comic, and that art is very good but its not something that interests me into making. I am more an Asterix fan. In any case this kind of style is very far from what I really like , how I think and how I feel. Minoan art is what it inspires me the most, fully of vibrant colours, dramatic expression, mysticism and freedom. https://s3.amazonaws.com/FunkStock-Default/header-Photos/Greece-Photos-Pict… On Sun, Oct 30, 2016 at 11:20 PM Damien Pollet < damien.pollet+pharo(a)gmail.com> wrote: On 30 October 2016 at 21:56, stepharo <stepharo(a)free.fr> wrote: Philemon is so great and strange :) I was thinking of him visiting the strange islands of class diagrams and meeting the reflective bytecode resistance smuggling inline caches there :D Le 30/10/16 Ã 21:23, Damien Pollet a Ã©crit : Somehow this makes me think of the cover of the Tintin album "L'Ãle Noire" http://www.images-booknode.com/book_cover/265/full/les-aventures-de-tintin-… Perhaps a similar composition with close/far subjects and clean flat text would work betterâ¦ as it is now, I find it too dark/dramatic for the subject matter, and I find the word art floating over water cheesy and making little sense, sorryâ¦ Another inspiration where the 3D text would work better would be the PhilÃ©mon's letters in the Atlantic (it's a surrealist universe where the letters spelling OCÃAN ATLANTIQUE on a world globe are really letter-shaped islands) : http://iteror.org/big/img/i/Philemon_leA.jpg On 30 October 2016 at 17:59, Dimitris Chloupis <kilon.alios(a)gmail.com> wrote: Yeap thats the idea, being unique is my goal , though still developing my style.

Re: [Pharo-users] [vwnc] small examples to show the tools

by Richard Sargent

For the idea of transferring the code to another image, look at Dale's work with "server blocks" between Pharo and GemStone/S. There is also his work which builds on this called Tugrik. _____ From: Christian <mailto:christian.haider@smalltalked-visuals.com> Haider Sent: â2016-â10-â30 00:39 To: vwnc(a)lists.cs.illinois.edu; pharo-users(a)lists.pharo.org Subject: [vwnc] small examples to show the tools Hi all, in two weeks, I am going to give a little talk about Smalltalk: http://metameute.de/nook2016/ <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__metameute.de_nook2016_& d=DQMFAw&c=8hUWFZcy2Z-Za5rBPlktOQ&r=ft-1QIM8cvtSHfdpPsQH-8KWGw6YwOgYlZIk9TUZ RnI&m=ATNH3e-u6y6KCrcoyYx4sKBiikVF5mDHEi0RAMEeiNA&s=b8Ppz_zDqqrl44tjdZ3i23m9 tPRHClnaFFwfYtdDtmw&e=> . It is 45 min with students who probably never heard of Smalltalk. I want to concentrate on the liveliness of the environment with the tools: Workspace, Inspector, Browser and Debugger. For this, I need a simple but nice example. I will use VisualWorks 8.2 and Mirko, a new Smalltalk lover, will use Pharo 5. We want to have the computers connected, maybe also a Pi, to show the platform independence of the image concept. The first idea was a chat client. A client and a server in one image. Then in two images on one machine, on two machines (also the Pi), maybe in two dialects (VW, Pharo). Possible to transfer code (blocks) across images (that should blow their minds J). This is cool, but I am not sure if this is not too much and distracting with other technologies. Another is to read a csv file or web service and parse it into objects. With the right kind of cool data it is fun to mold these objects for the tools. This not so sexy, but easy to do from scratch. Unfortunately, the different computers would not play a role. As you see, I am a bit lost and wanted to ask you guys for ideas. Happy hacking, Christian P.S. Here in LÃ¼beck, a town in northern Germany, the attitude towards Smalltalk is generally positive, interested and curious. Maybe it is time for a Smalltalk renaissance?
