Fantastic! I was going to say that I probably wasn't paying as much attention to the squeak-dev commit messages if I had missed this, but then saw that this change went in today. Morphic in Self tried to reinforce the idea that the visual representation of an object on the screen was the real thing. So if you asked for an outliner for an object and there was already one being shown, you got that one instead of a new one. Of course, having a separate outliner view and a morphic view ruined this and we had interesting discussions about how to solve that but never did anything about it. So the arrows were important to allow the same morph or outliner to pop up in a new place without really going missing from its old place. Since Morphic in Squeak has a different model (you can have as many inspectors as you want on the same object) I don't think the arrows would be as important. -- Jecel _______________________________________________ fonc mailing list fonc@vpri.org http://vpri.org/mailman/listinfo/fonc
