Wow! Cool you've found it!
@Doru: The mondrian DSL in Roassal assigns a copy of the shape for each element. This is different from what we had in Mondrian. The reason for copying the shape, is that having a copy makes singular update much much easier, i.e., temporarily changing the color of an element.
I know you have a shape per element, but I think the above argument is rather weak :). Even if you share the shape, you can still just associate a new copy to the element when you want to modify it.
But, I thought that the original argument was that if you have a shape per element, you could store actual values directly in the shape (for example, for caching).

The problem was that, while constructing the nodes in the Mondrian builder, the shape assigned to each was a copy of the current shape. But this was a normal copy that didn't copy the chain of shapes. That means that all nodes were connected to the current shape and not to a copy. So, for each node you had a shape like this:
A ROBox -> a ROLabel -> a ROChildrenShape -> a ROChildrenShape -> a ROChildrenShape -> ... lots of ROChildrenShape ... -> a ROChildrenShape -> aRONullShape.
So when a node was update, ALL the shapes of the other nodes were updated too.

I checked and yes, there was a little ugly bug :P I commited a new version, can you try and see if it works now, please?

I'm using Roassal to build a visualization that looks like the following:
http://www.xconomy.com/wordpress/wp-content/images/2012/11/skeuo-calendar.pn...
I create two ad-hoc layouts (i.e., extending the ROGridLayout) to individually layout days inside months and months inside years.
I have a piece of code that looks something like:
view shape rectangle withText.
view nodes: nodes forEach: [ :aGroupOfObjects | | innerNodes |
innerNodes := do something with aGroupOfObjects. ... view shape rectangle size: 25; withCenteredText. ... view nodes: innerNodes. view layout: ROMonthLayout new.]
view layout: ROYearLayout new.
view edges: ...
Notice that I want the both the outer node (i.e., the month container) and the inner nodes (i.e., days) with labels.
The problem is that when I set both nodes with labels the view takes time to be generated and interactions become impossible (i.e., the whole image actually becomes slow and you can no longer drag around shapes in the view).
I explored the issue a little bit and discovered that it might be something related to ROShape>>chainedDrawOn:for: and the way Roassal handles shapes with "nested" shapes (i.e., when 'next' is not a RONullShape .
I inspected one of my outer nodes and discovered that I have a chain such that 'outerNode next' is a ROLabel and the ROLabel has a ROChildrenShape as next and the next of the ROChildrenShape is a RONullShape .
Have you ever experienced such a problem? Do you know how can I handle that? Do you see any potential problem in the snippet I posted above?
