Thanks Andrei!
I tried:
browser transmit to: #Example port: #selection; transformed: [ Abort ].
using also #strongSelection and #rawSelection,but I missed # fromOutsideEntityPort :)
So, I have two additional questions: When #selection: and #strongSelection: can be used ?
Strong selection is in list/tree/table presentations associated with double clicking on an element. So it's a "stronger" selection than just clicking once.
Also, what is the difference among selection strongSelection and rawSelection ports ? I saw some transmission example using #strongSelection port, and some discussion in the mailing list where #rawSelection port is mentioned.
There is no connection between #strongSelection and #rawSelection ports. Only between #selection and #rawSelection. #rawSelection will hold the exact value that was selected. Before putting this value in the #selection port a transformation can be applied on it using GLMBasicPresentation>>#send:. Have a look for example at Date>>gtInspectorDetailsIn:. The table displays a list of associations, but on selection we want to navigate to the value in that association. #rawSelection will hold the association and #selection the value in that association. Cheers, Andrei
Thanks

Hi Arturo,
Normally what you want should be achieved with a transmission:
browser transmit fromOutsideEntityPort; to: #Example port: #selection; transformed: #first.
Just I see that doesn't work as expected with #fastTreeTable.
The closest thing that looks similar to what you want is:
| browser | browser := GLMTabulator new. browser row: #Example. browser transmit to: #Example; andShow: [ :a | a table column: 'Class Name' evaluated:[:clazz| clazz name]; children:[:clazz| clazz subclasses]; shouldRootsExpand: true ]. browser transmit fromOutsideEntityPort; to: #Example port: #selection; transformed: [ Abort ]. browser openOn: {Object}.
Cheers, Andrei

Hi all, I'm trying to do what subject says. I tried something like that (in the example I'm trying to get Abort class selected) : | browser | browser := GLMTabulator new. browser row: #Example. browser transmit to: #Example; andShow: [ :a | a fastTreeTable column: 'Class Name' evaluated:[:clazz| clazz name]; children:[:clazz| clazz subclasses]; allExpanded; "this has no effect" strongSelection:Abort; "this has no effect" selection: Abort browser openOn: {Object}
Could you please point me what I'm missing?
TIA Arturo
