New issue 950 by tu...(a)tudorgirba.com: Freeze 4.8
http://code.google.com/p/moose-technology/issues/detail?id=950
We need to freeze 4.8 for ConfigurationOfMoose and the configurations of
all other Moose projects.
We should extend the mechanism used for 4.7.

Hi Moosers,
this paper might be interesting to some of you:
@Article{layered-grammar,
author = {Hadley Wickham},
doi = {10.1198/jcgs.2009.07098},
journal = {Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics},
number = {1},
pages = {3–28},
selected = {TRUE},
title = {A layered grammar of graphics},
volume = {19},
year = {2010},
}
http://vita.had.co.nz/papers/layered-grammar.html
I was wondering if Graph-ET (or EyeSee before) is close to this
compositional approach ? Apparently at the moment, there is no
interaction in this work (compare to Graph-ET).
Regards,

Hi all,
I am a bit lost I'm afraid: I would like to know what the moose model is that contains a FAMIXType that I have been given. But I do not see how I can navigate from this type to the MooseModel that contains it. Can anybody give me the magic line of code for that?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
GraphET is properly integrated in Glamour.
You can play with it via:
- open the GraphET editor from the Moose world menu
- paste something like:
chart lineDiagram
models: (1 to: 10)
Cheers,
Doru

Hello all,
I remembering having seen in the old versions of Moose a Fuel export/import
dialogue that I cannot find anymore. Moreover, there was a
FuelMooseExtension and a ConfigurationOf that I cannot find in the current
image.
What was purpose of creating a Fuel extension for Moose (why would
serializing a model like any other object not work)?
tx,
Usman
The extensions are present in Fuel repo: here:

Hi!
Just to say that I like the white theme very much :-)

Just a small thing I bumped into... ROMondrianViewBuilder &
ROMondrianInteractionBuilder both have an instance variable
'shouldHavePopup', but using Finder > Source to search all Roassal
classes indicates this is not used. The only two references are:
* ROMondrianViewBuilder >> initializeWithTitle: roassalView:
* ROMondrianInteractionBuilder >> withPopup
