Another Halo Question (complete newbie)

by James Ashley

How-dee! I'm working my way through PBE (no, I've been too broke lately to buy a copy yet *blush*, but I will) and a few other smalltalk tutorials. I've read the documents about getting halos activated in the first place. I'm on linux, where alt-shift middle-click (I'm still trying to get the button colors down) generally works. In the lights out sample, it doesn't. I can ctrl-shift "left" click, get a giant menu, and select "Add Halo." That puts a halo around the individual cell. If I close it, it disappears and shows a blue background (which I'm starting to suspect is a default for morphics...is that close?). If I jump back through the "Add Halo" hoops on that background, or actually manage to click on the border, I just get what seems to be halos for the desktop (system? background? It's always frustrating to start learning a new system and not know the terminology...then again, that's part of the fun). I've been able to close the morphic by adding a "self owner delete" mouse down handler to the cells, then commenting it out until I need it. But it's more than a little painful. I spent about two hours today googling for variations on "morphics decorated frames", but the results I got suggested that I'm not even in the ballpark. I'm sorry if I missed an FAQ or didn't dig far enough back in the mailing list archives. Thanks in advance, James

How to detect an inactive image?

by Norbert Hartl

At the moment I have several projects in parallel. Nearly all of them are web based. I use a cherokee server on my local machine that starts a squeak image whenever I access a project via web browser. For persistency I use piers image based persistency. But I don't want to have all of the images run all the time. I would like to shutdown images if they aren't accessed for some time. I could do it via seaside but then I don't want an image to shutdown while I'm working on the image and not accessing seaside. What is a good measure of activity inside the image? thanks, Norbert

According to the link that Mariano sent, I was able to display the halos (on Windows) with alt+shift+click.

Activating Halos around morphs

by Daniel Klein

I'm new to Pharo and I'm going through the PBE book (yep, I bought it). I'm using the image that goes with the book on Windows XP Pro. I can't get halos around any morphs and I don't see a setting in the Preferences browser (I notice this was changed to Settings in later releases). I tried evaluating Preferences enable: #halosEnabled but it had no effect. Interestingly, I can get halos around the the World menu with alt+left-click, but once I pin it, I can no longer get the halos. What am I missing? Daniel Klein
