I have it installed, and I tried it on this sentence:
(+/%#)&.:*: i.3 3 3
Here are some observations:
That sentence results in a tall narrow graph (on a short, wide laptop
display). It would be nice to have some kind of ability to scroll or
rearrange display components.
You can scroll by holding down the mouse anywhere outside a box and
dragging the display around.
Rearranging the display would be cool, maybe in a later release.
selection did not work. I first tried selecting an element in the bottom
result (nothing happened) and then I tried selecting an element in the
middle +/ result (which gave me an error in paint - lengtherror:
addselecttoDOL)
That's a bug. The display of +/ SAYS it's rank 3 3, but it SHOWS 2 3 3,
as if the program got confused about what the outputs are. It should
display the result (rank 3 3), which would then expand if you click it
to add a node showing the intermediate results. Clicks in other results
should highlight the result and the cells that contribute, but they
don't. I'll fix it.
The Max Noun (% of scrn) and Show ][/Hide ][ elements at the top of the
screen seem to do nothing for me.
They do nothing on this testcase, because you don't use ][ and you have
no noun larger than 30% of the screen. Now that you mention it, I would
do well to hide those buttons when they have no effect, wouldn't I?
The rank background color on verbs is so subtle it might as well not be
distinct from the rest of the background. Numbers probably need another row
of pixels underneath them, because _ is hard to read.
Will do.
I am not going to comment on the color scheme.
I wish you would - I have no great commitment to what's there but there
is an awful lot of information to get across if color could be used
effectively.
Thanks,
