Pharo 7 image, some more size reducation
Hi, Pharo7 has proven to be a reliable host for Dr. Geo, and thank you for your advices and helps. In the past weeks several screenshots were posted on DrGeo twitter, all based on P7 built. Many notable tools or frameworks like Tonel, Glamour tool kit, Calypso, Metacello, VM builts have proven to be reliable. I am now at the point where I am thinking about a new public release. Before that I want to squeeze a bit more the image. It is now about 36MB, and I am looking at some advices to shrink it a bit more. What is done is described there[1]. For example is it possible to remove Nautilus? A temporary built can be fetched from there[2], tests and feedbacks are also greatly appreciated.

Hi Hilaire, Nautilus was removed 7days ago: https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/1231 Versionner and Kommiter 4days ago: https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/1245 So if you use a more recent Pharo 7 image it'll be smaller :) -- Cyril Ferlicot https://ferlicot.fr
I have a 6 days old image. Aha, so it explained why the image suddenly get smaller. Thanks Hilaire Le 28/04/2018 à 11:20, Cyril Ferlicot D. a écrit :

Cool
Basic features seem to work nicely on my Windows 8.1 box. I like the dark theme :-) I would love to be able to select another palette than the existing one for figures and points etc. Something somewhat more subtle instead of 255,255,0 variations. Check this out https://terminal.sexy/ Phil

So far I only see one usability issue with the Dark theme: the tooltips, the contrast is two low with the surrounding area, we hardly see it when it pop up: The tooltips will be better with a pale yellow background and black text for example. It does not seem possible to easily adjust it in the Drak Theme though

For what kind of usage will you want to switch palette? -- Dr. Geo http://drgeo.eu

First these colors are killing my eyes for one. Second, presentations look better with less garish/childish colors. Phil

Yes, these colours contrast a lot with each other, the idea is to paint object and distinguish easily from each other. If you can propose me a collection of colours to substitute one by one to the current colours, I can take a look. Hilaire Le 01/05/2018 à 14:02, phil@highoctane.be a écrit :

We should analyse a bit better where the space is going⦠I wonder if there are more cases of initialisation data that we could move out of the image (e.g. like the truetype fonts in #fontContents). Marcus

We could easily make a couple of things lazy loading over the internet. Sadly, we are not allowed to do this in the 21st century. Sorry, can't resist.
