Hello Group,

since yesterday I'm investigating the Roassal examples.

Udderlying system is:

Pharo-50761.image

Roassal is loaded like this:

Gofer itsmalltalkhubUser: 'ObjectProfile' project: 'Roassal2';configurationOf: 'Roassal2';loadStable.

In the office (yes, in worktime :)�� ) I also tested on Windows 7.

I only click through all the built in Roassal examples. I AM IMPRESSED! Very powerful system, even the GIS (map) part with OSM integration (VOW!)

Anyway, on windows it crashed many times (On WIndows I downloaded this: http://moosetechnology.org/res/download/moose_suite_6_0-win.zip)

I observed that windows crash moment was always some kind of animation (window transition animation of the Roassal exmaples browser or visualization animation like pan or zoom).

Question:

Is there a way to disable Roassal visualization animations?
is there a way to disable window component animation in the Roassal Example Browser? (When clicking on the dots and moving between examples list and the visualization example itself, for example)

I wonder if it would make the windows run more stable.

On Linux it is OK but also painfully slow (ok, old machines).

I prefer animationless repaint of the visualization canvas and window transitions.

thanks

Robert
