Re: [Pharo-users] Full Screen Button would be nice

by ted f.a. van gaalen

Hi Thank you all for your insights. I did know about attaching items to the world menu but then, I need two mouse clicks to change the screen state.. I used to work with a single-screen system.. Anyway, all I really wanted is a little simple button that sleeps in te corner, I'm beginning to get attached to it. Never created a button with so little code :o) Will simply wait for better implementation in 1.4, thanks in advance. I still have this question: What happened to the user window styles in 1.4? (I only see Default and DemoMode) Is there a package out there containing more styles or are they already present in 1.4? Regards Ted

Thanks for posting those links. I enjoyed seeing what is happening. Pharo is great. (Except for 1.3, which crashes out-of-the-box when I load my packages... -- i am too busy to figure out why right now.) Two years ago a friend needed an app to demonstrate capabilities at his start-up company. The demo app was simple: 2d display (with a map as the back-drop) with markers on the map illustrating the states & locations of various in-field devices (data pulled from the db, or added graphically to inform the db). I spec'd out the demo, generalizing as much as possible for a quick-n-dirty demo. So maybe I quickly got in to 20 to 30 classes, with not much code in each. I sat down and laid out the basic functioning *demo in about 2 weeks in Java*. At the end of that period, I thought: why am I using Java/Java-beans/Eclipse? I hate having to type in data-type information all over the place -- and as I get older and my eyes slower, it just slows me down a lot, visually scanning code during editing. So, I went ahead and authored the same functionality *in Pharo. It took 2 days.* I still do not get the appeal of Java. I love Pharo and I am willing to contribute. Other than a few tools laying around (e.g. a Sudoku solver that I wrote a few years back) that were never polished (e.g. lacking a GUI), cash is actually the easiest thing for me to contribute. Question: is this private-public partnership funding situation operational now, or are you still working out the details? I am using Pharo to write a financial analysis & reporting (only html & csv currently) system that includes a simple (feed-forward) artificial neural-network subsystem and a portfolio simulation system (that can pull in historical fundamental data & simulate a portfolio with various trading rules). The chances are high that I will need some additional help in February or March for a few weeks. Are there any Smalltalk/Pharo consultants here in New Hampshire, USA? Because this project is going to evolve, and is already too big for me to maintain progress on in my spare time (and yet the app is already critical to our in-house stock research), hiring someone would be our preferred course. - Whatever happened to the GUI builder? (Someone named nullset or null<something> was working on?) In summary, I love Pharo!

Can Zinc do this easily (e.g. automatically handle hidden fields)? If not, is it planned? Where can I find an example? Thanks.
