Excerpts from Christophe Demarey's message of 2015-02-10 14:28:19 +0100:
We would like to know if some of you use Nautilus groups functionality: dynamic groups: 'Last modified packages', 'Most viewed classes', 'Work'
do you mean 'last modified classes'? i use them. i find them much easier to use than having to type some regular expression to get the list i want. i wish they would work better though. for example, when i install new packages, i do not want them to show up in the 'last modified classes' maybe they can be placed in a separate group: 'last installed classes' also, when i create a new class, it does not show up until i add a method. which sometimes means i go have to search for the class by typing its name. i don't know what 'work' does, i never got anything when selecting that.
user defined groups : from the menu, you can flatten the content of many packages and get all classes into the newly created group.
i have not discovered this yet.
We have the feeling that it is not used (or not a lot) and we think to replace it with another mechanism (for example, let the user define his/her 'favorites' classes / packages).
how is that different from user defined groups? what i find important and useful about 'last modified classes' is that, as i work on many things, not only pharo, when i do get back to pharo, i can go: ok, where was i? then i click on 'last modified classes' and remember. without that i have to find some other way to remember before i can then type what i need to find the right classes. it may not be much, but having an easy way to see what i have been working on just feels more comfortable. greetings, martin. -- eKita - the online platform for your entire academic life -- chief engineer eKita.co pike programmer pike.lysator.liu.se caudium.net societyserver.org secretary beijinglug.org mentor fossasia.org foresight developer foresightlinux.org realss.com unix sysadmin Martin Bähr working in china http://societyserver.org/mbaehr/
