Hi,

I remember I made same question a couple of years ago… and I didn’t have an answer at the moment, and now I have the same problem.

I have a simple browser like this

“ColumnA" -> “ColumnB"

My problem is: ColumnA renders a custom Morph. The morph is complicated (is a solar system simulation), I can select a planet to show some properties.
This properties should be displayed in ColumnB

I tried something like this:

        browser transmit from: #levels; to: #map; andShow: [ :a |
                | presentation |

                presentation := a morph.
                presentation
                        title: 'Area Schematics';
                        display: [ :baseLevel |
                                self
                                        createMorphFor: baseLevel
                                        onSelect: [ :node| presentation selection: node ] ] ].

        browser transmit from: #map; to: #properties; andShow: [ :a |
                a text
                        title: 'Properties' ].

But that does not works :(

I want a way to trigger a port and update my properties pane.
How I do that?

I am not sure to understand what is not working selection or updating but try having a look at the examples:
GLMBasicExamples open


There are plenty that show how the ports and their transmission work.

A presentation can be updated with the "update" message.

I can have a look at the code of the browser.

I do not want to create a presenter for that simple and basic behaviour… it has to be an easy way that I’m not saying.
But even if I have to do a presenter/renderer and all the bureaucracy… I still don’t know how to do it.

Any help will be welcomed.

thanks,
Esteban
