Hi,

I am trying to customize an inspector with a code browser, and I have in a compose method of my own browser the following:

[...]

browser transmit
               from: #methods;
               fromOutsidePort: #entity;
               to: #source;
               when: [ :method | method notNil ];
               andShow: [ :a :method :object | self sourceOf: method for: object in: a ].

browser transmit
               from: #links;
               fromOutsidePort: #entity;
               to: #selectedLink;
               when: [ :link | link notNil ];
               andShow: [ :a :link | self inspectSelectedLink: link inPresenter: a ].

[...]

Is there an easy way to update the #source pane whenever one of my links is selected in my #link pane ?

In my case, the source code is displayed first, and when i select a link in the #link pane i want to highlight specific parts of this source code and the easiest way would be to re-trigger the first block above. I did not try it, but it seems that i could retrieve the #source pane and the selected method manually and re-trigger the method from the second block (i.e. when a link is selected), but i am not sure that is the right way to do it...

If you know the interval that you want to highlight when selecting a link, you can create a transmission from the #selection port of the #link pane to the #selectionInterval port of the #source pane. If you go to GLMBasicExamples, textPortsExamples and textSelection show how to use the selectionInterval port.

Also i was wondering if there was a video of the moldable inspector tutorial from pharo days 17 somewhere on the web, because i did not find it on youtube.

Not sure if the Pharo Days videos are available but you can see the same presentation from ESUG here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wj5IWvAYSlw
