Hi Jannik,

You should never use valueWithInterval:
This methods creates threads, and threads are evil. 

If you update Roassal, you will see I’ve added a new class for you, RTActiveAnimation. You can try this:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
v := RTView new.
element := RTLabel elementOn: '0'.
v add: element.
value := 0.
RTActiveAnimation new 
inView: v;
blockToExecute: [ 
value := value + 1. 
element trachelShape text: value asString. ].
v 
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Naturally, RTActiveAnimation may need to have some time delay. 
Does it make sense?

Hi Alex,

So I tried again but I have problems. Here is a sample code I made:

===
| view  el shape|
view := RTView new.
[
el := RTElement forCollection: #(1 2 3).
shape := RTMultiCompositeShape new
add: (RTEllipse new color: Color blue; size: 20);
add: (RTLabel new);
horizontal;
yourself.
el do:[:e | 
e @ RTDraggable; 
+ shape.
].
view elements do:[:e | view removeElement: e].
view addAll: el.
RTGridLayout new on: el.
view signalUpdate.
] valueWithInterval: 1second.
view open
===

This code update the view every seconds, because the collection is changing regularly.

Now, I tried to use a builder to make similar behavior but it has not the right behavior: the shapes are not well placed, and when I place the mouse on a shape, it raises an error.
Here is the code:

===
| c b  |
c := RTComposer new.
b := RTGraphBuilder new.
b view: c view.
[
b nodes 
color: Color blue.
b layout circle.
b cleanView.
b addAll: #(1 2 3).
b build
] valueWithInterval: 1second.
c group.
c layout: RTVerticalLineLayout new.
c open.
===

So, what is your point of view ? What can I improve and how ?
Is any guy of Roassal team coming at Smalltalks 2014 ? I will be at Cordoba and I would like to peer-program with someone who knows well Roassal.

Thank you Alex,

I will check all of that.

There is a chapter on builders:

Cheers,
