[Moose-dev] [ann] presenter notes support for demos

(repost to the correct mailing lists) Pharo workflow is best seen in action. However, I noticed that we do not have much support for demoing what we do. For example, if you do not record with sound, you want to add notes. I saw several videos with notes being added to the workspace. This looks clumsy. So, I gave it a short try, and built a little goodie that lets you simply type notes in the middle of the screen the audience in big fonts. Take a look below at a video describing a specific session with GTInspector: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XT081uQlqI4&list=UU5uZoiH-YS7CIQ-e-DCwMwA (from http://www.humane-assessment.com/blog/discover-contracts-by-visualizing-obj… ) To get it: Gofer new smalltalkhubUser: 'AlainPlantec' project: 'Rubric'; package: 'Rubric'; smalltalkhubUser: 'Moose' project: 'GToolkit'; package: 'GT-PresenterNote'; load. It's still at the beginning. Right now, it is mapped on Cmd+/. Actually, it really is tiny. You can obtain the equivalent by doing this in the workspace: KMRepository reset. KMRepository default setAsGlobalCategory: ( (KMCategory named: 'Presentation') addKeymapEntry: ( KMKeymap shortcut: $/ command action: [ RubEditingArea new beWrapped; width: World width / 3; updateTextWith: ''; takeKeyboardFocus; backgroundColor: Color paleYellow; cellInset: 50; onAnnouncement: MorphLostFocus do: [ :ann | ann morph delete ]; font: (LogicalFont familyName: 'Source Sans Pro' pointSize: 20); openCenteredInWorld. ]) ) We need to advertise Pharo, and our videos should look good. Let me know about what other similar needs you would like to have supported. Cheers, Doru -- www.tudorgirba.com "Every thing has its own flow"
