But I thought that space/universe was done so that we could build multidesktop with mini space to select where to jump and we can imagine that such mini space would be running. So what sean wants to do should be possible. At least I thought that alain planed it. stef Le 14/2/16 16:51,

"scheduleIn: 1" seems much more awkward than "scheduleIn: 10 seconds", and #scheduleAt: is even clunkier - timeInMs - what's that? Unix time? Squeak time? Wherease "#scheduleAt: '3/1/2016 6:55pm' asDateAndTime" is perfectly clear - Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context:

[Pharo-users] Bloc Space within a Space

I always wanted to do this in Morphic, but it made too many assumptions about the World's environment e.g. use of globals like ActiveHand and World. I gave it a shot (see below). The new space did appear in the current world, but the rectangle seemed to open in the container world, not in the new

Hi! I do not have my laptop, so I cannot try. This is a field where Roassal is weak indeed. Let us know if you come with a solution. What is your case? Having a selection box only when you press shift and drag and drop? Once back from holidays, I will check how it is done in JavaFX.
