About table, I have an example which will be running soon in Pharo (the changes are waiting to be integrated)

tree openWithSpec.

tree columns: (Array�

with: (TreeColumnModel new displayBlock: [:node | node content first asString ]; headerLabel: 'Name'; yourself)

with: (TreeColumnModel new displayBlock: [:node | node content third asString ]; headerLabel: 'Age'; yourself)

tree roots: {

{'Benjamin'.'Van Ryseghem'.'26'.'M'}.

{'Pamela'.'Anderson'.'Far too much'.'F'}

}

Right now, you can get the same by

- adding MorphTreeAdapter>>#columns:

columns: columns�

�self widgetDo: [ :w |�

w columns: columns.�

� w resizerChanged.�

w updateList ]

And then evaluating:

tree := TreeModel new.

tree openWithSpec.

tree columns: (Array�

with: (MorphTreeColumn new rowMorphGetSelector: [:node | node item first asString asMorph ]; headerButtonLabel: 'Name' font: nil; yourself)

with: (MorphTreeColumn new rowMorphGetSelector: [:node | node item second asString asMorph ]; headerButtonLabel: 'Last Name' font: nil; yourself)

with: (MorphTreeColumn new rowMorphGetSelector: [:node | node item third asString asMorph ]; headerButtonLabel: 'Age' font: nil; yourself)

with: (MorphTreeColumn new rowMorphGetSelector: [:node | node item fourth asString asMorph ]; headerButtonLabel: �'Gender' font: nil; yourself)).

tree roots: {

{'Benjamin'.'Van Ryseghem'.'26'.'M'}.

{'Pamela'.'Anderson'.'Far too much'.'F'}

}

Ben, in each cell, can we put something else than a String ? If so, can you add an example in the code above ?�Thanks.

I guess doing Ben's solution is the best. I did it with nested layout but it is definitely not as good (see file in attachment, add it in your image then evaluate SpecTable new).

Hi Clement;

I did the Spec tuto made by Bahman (great tuto). As him, i'd like to put some widgets into it. Is it possible? Maybe with the method "items:"? I don't know if the solution that Ben give to us (use Morphic instead of Spec) is suitable, that's because his UI looks like a list that accept only string. Maybe i'm wrong, can you give us more explanations? Or is it something new for you too?

Thanks for your help!
Paolo

Subject: Re: [Pharo-users] Spec - Grid/Table Layout

Hello,

Actually I had the same problem, I think the best widget that exists for that right now is�MultiColumnListModel.

For example, in the senders window (in attachment), the top panel is a MultiColumnListModel. You can have as many lines and as many columns as you want.�

We do not have yet a tableLayout, but we miss it. If you plan to implement it, we will be interested in integrating it into Pharo.

Ben can advise you on how to implement that.

Hi all,

Is there a grid/table layout available in Spec? �Something like an HTML
table or Swing's GridLayout? �If not, how may I achieve such a
functionality?

I'd appreciate any hints/pointers.
