What is GTInspector using to print UUID?
by Peter Uhnák
Hi,
how inspector decides what to print in the table/headings/etc?
Because for UUID it prints the bytes (I guess because it's child of
ByteArray?), however that's rarely useful for UUID, as normally you want to
see the #asString representation.
Can this be changed?
Thanks,
Peter

how to modify playground storage
by Peter Uhnak
Hi,
is there a way to customize the save/restore mechanism of Playground?
Because Playground is #1 place where I consistently lose code.
If the image crashes (rare) or freezes (quite common) then I almost never get the code back which is quite annoying.
Right now I have an external text editor to which I copy&paste the code frequently… which is _very_ stupid.
I would like to have it persisted on the disk at least every time the contents gets evaluated, optimally every time I have a usable code.
Ideally if this would be done on Playground side; but if that's a long shot, is there a way to hook into the saving mechanism and implement it myself?
That would also allow some platform-specific customizations, like storing every change to /dev/shm (ramdisk) so I can do a meaningful undo/redo.
Thanks,
Peter

Wordlimit and label color for RTNameCloud
by Agustin Meriles
Hi everyone,
I need to set change the label default color and also limit the maximum
words to display (say, I want to display only the top 10 words).
Is there a way to do it without subclassing the builder?
Thanks in advance!

Odd design of the examples
by Alexandre Bergel
Hi!
I believe having a nice support for examples is very important. And the current effort is a nice step toward ubiquitous examples.
But I feel something is weird with the current way to define an example.
I may have raised that problem earlier. But since it is bugging me seriously, I raise it again :-)
If I want to have an example of RTView, I can define the following method:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
RTView class>>exampleUsingView
| v |
v := RTView new.
v add: RTBox element.
v open
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Pressing on the icon will open the view in a window, great. But when I run the test, this method exampleUsingView opens the window. And I do not want that :-(
Instead, I use do not use #example in the method name. But this is awkward...
