Re: [Pharo-users] Changing playground and monticello shortcuts

2015-11-11 Thread Tudor Girba
Hi Torsten,

People are saying that they do not want to have the Catalog Projects displayed 
by default (before you type anything). This makes the opening of Spotter slower.

Another option is to provide an intermediary object. For example, how would it 
be if we would dive in the Catalog Browser object from the Menu category and be 
able to search for projects?

Cheers,
Doru

[Pharo-users] FileDialog from Spec

2015-11-11 Thread Jeff Gray
In Pharo 4.
I'm writing a ui in spec and I want to be able to select and open a file on
a button click.
I can see one example in polymorph but I don't know if that can be used from
spec. 
Or am I missing something obvious?

Re: [Pharo-users] How to find the cursor position relative to its text for TextMorph or RubTextFieldArea

2015-11-11 Thread Dimitris Chloupis
because its simpler to understand and because I made it work the way I
wanted faster than the Rubric alternatives.

For example finding the cursor position for a RubScrolledTextMorph is even
worse and is located at textArea selectionInterval which I did not even
find by myself because the name would never have me guessed that selection
had anything to do with cursor position. But I was told so by another
smalltalker at slack chat.

And even though my code formating worked great with TextMorph via keyStroke
message when I tried to port my code to the Rubric keyStroke alternative it
stopped working and I did not manage to find out why before I finally
managed to find how to get the cursor position from a TextMorph.

Generally speaking Morphic is my first choice for the simple fact that when
it comes to Rubric, Glamour, Spec or whatever else Morphic still remains
the basis. So if I am going to learn Morphic anyway then I might as well
make it my first choice and when it cant do what I want the easy way then I
will look into the alternatives.

Frankly I really like Morphic. Still new to it, but its generally design
makes more sense to me than other pharo GUI APIs.

Re: [Pharo-users] Changing playground and monticello shortcuts

2015-11-11 Thread Tudor Girba
Hi,

It was chosen a while ago that the Global shortcuts are checked first, before 
the local ones. The local ones propagate from bottom to top. The idea here was 
to guarantee global behavior, such as Shift+Enter for popping out things like 
Spotter. I was not happy about that, but that was the choice.

Now, I think that the global keymap mechanism should be used sparingly, and I 
think that using it for Cmd+o is a bit too much.

Cheers,
Doru

Just regarding the slowdown, if the image has no private data could you
maybe share it?
If you cannot can I send you some logging statements to see what takes so
long.
Normally there shouldn't be such a big slowdown.

One thing that slows down spotter is the fact that we display now all
entries from the world menu, which we should change.
Also the extension for CatalogBrowser does an HTTP request every time one
opens spotter. I am for changing this, or
at least for not displaying the CatalogBrowser by default until one starts
searching.

[Pharo-users] How to find the cursor position relative to its text for TextMorph or RubTextFieldArea

2015-11-11 Thread Dimitris Chloupis
At first I thought that TextMorph>>cursor would return me the position of
the cursor relative to its text so if I have a text like "hello" and cursor
(that blinking thing) was at "o" it would return 6 but no, whatever
position I try it returns always 1 . With rubric I found no way to do this
either.

Anyone has a clue, or to I need some kind of pharo dark magic ? Is this a
bug , a feature or something in between ?

Hi,

I am totally against it because it's too much time to open it with the
spotter. A shortcut need to be a shortcut. If I need to open it via the
Spotter, I will use the mouse because it's the same time.
One more reason, when the image become too big sometime, the Spotter
need some time to initialize. On one of my latest image the spotter
needed ~3-4sec to open and initialize.

There is a lot of things that we cannot do easily only with the
keyboard, this is bad. So please, do not remove what works for now.

Well they are global shortcuts, so that's to be expected.

as far as I know events bubble up, so morphs can intercept them (which will
break the global shortcut, but if the programmer sees it as appropriate...)

This takes significantly more time, and on top of that doesn't actually
work, because the first group is History and not Menu... so this would open
PetitParser browser for me.

I don't see a problem in having global shortcuts for the most important
tools, if the current key combinations are problem, then we should come up
with different combinations.

Re: [Pharo-users] Changing playground and monticello shortcuts

2015-11-11 Thread Tudor Girba
I actually think we should disable those shortcuts.

The reason is that they “pollute" the global shortcut space: for example, you 
can now not use Cmd+o for any custom action in your own window, and that is 
less than ideal.

The alternative is to use Spotter to spawn windows. The interesting thing there 
is that you do not need shortcuts for every specific windows because you can 
use regular search. For example, opening Playground is: Shift+Enter, p, Enter

Doru

The same type of fluid interface is available in Glamour.

That is why this quick prototyping has to make it in the base layer, not just 
in the libraries that are built on top (like Glamour or Spec).

cmd+o+m would be
ctrl+o ctrl+m on windows, but ctrl+m does not work yet on windows.

[Pharo-users] Changing playground and monticello shortcuts

2015-11-11 Thread Peter Uhnák
Hi,

currently to open a Playground via shortcut one has to type +o+w,
that's because it used to open Workspace.
However since it now opens Playground the shortcut is no longer appropriate.

So can we change it to +o+p?
(This shortcut is currently occupied by Monticello Browser, but that can be
movd to +o+m which is free.)

You could argue that people are used to this shortcut, however that will
not be true for newcommers, who will just see it as random naming (which it
currently is).

company does actively support.


Prism/Oxygene/Elements/Silver are from a different company (RemObjects) 
that originally delivered a remoting/database solution to Delphi. The 
original Delphi is now with Embarcadero, who used FreePascal for a while 
to build a cross-platform solution.
