Thank Hilaire , I understand how to wrap my code to a cross platform class. Definetly will look at (have done already previously) DrGeo as most likely I will rely heavily on Morphic.Nicolai ,I tried this code in Windows and worksDisplayScreen hostWindowSize: 500@500.��DisplayScreen hostWindowTitle: 'hello'.Will check it on MacOS when I get home :)What I want to create is a custom gui that resizes to a small size and locates to the left side of the screen as a long left panel that can be use like a Dock bar for Pharo and Blender, and who knows even for OS stuff.��On Mon, Sep 22, 2014 at 12:36 PM, Nicolai Hess <nicolaihess@web.de> wrote:This could be platform independent but I don't know if it works on all platforms:Another solution could be the HostWindowPlugin.Look at DisplayScreen class >> hostWindowXXXXDisplayScreen hostWindowTitle: not working on Linux (ubuntu)2014-09-22 11:26 GMT+02:00 Hilaire <hilaire@drgeo.eu>:Le 22/09/2014 11:20, Hilaire a ��crit :

In Pharo you can check for OSPlatform and add accordingly the operation
you want to do in your host window, for each specific OS.
Then, in your appls will do something like:
Smalltalk os maximiseHostWindow
