[Moose-dev] Re: Glamour-Examples comparison 4.5 v 4.6 - Class GLMBasicExamples

btw, I am on Windows 7. The GLMExamplesBrowser menu item [View browser tree] is interesting... NEW IN 4.6 Do the following demonstrate new functionality in 4.6 or just a new example of existing 4.5 functionality ? #formatAsWords - what does this have to do with composites protocol? #listDragAndDrop new to 4.6 - very nice :) A useful addition would be allowing drop onto background of [Target] (which might be item + 0) Dropping onto a number in [Source] causes an error An additional comment to describe operation of the example would be useful eg.. "Drag a number from Source into Target dropping on either an item or the background" #smalltalkCode #spawnBrowserActions - it would be useful to also see how a single selected item could be opened in a new window - not just the whole list) #spawnBrowserSelectionActions (note, the method of in-comment example is incorrect) [*1] operational change... 4.5 has a default window menu ==> 4.6 does not - why the difference ?[3] [*2] finder list ==> finder show: [ :a | a list browser text ==> browser show: [ :a | a text finder table ==> finder show: [ :a | a table Browser menu #simpleFinderWithMenu Filter #multipleFinderWithFilter Finder #simpleFinder Populate port action #populatePortAction Search #multipleFinderWithFilterAndSearch Toolbar #browserWithToolbar Tabs with different labels #tabsWithDifferentLabels #treeWithInitialSelection - actually this gets a MNU GLMTabulator>>text in 4.6 - needs one more refactoring [*3] #using seems to be being purged from Glamour. Perhaps to remove a lot of methods from GLMBrowser & GLMTPresentationBuilder, leaving these only in GLMCompositePresentation. Examples... showOn: ... using: [ browser mondrian ==> transmit to: .... andShow: [ :a | a mondrian showOn: ... using: [ browser list ==> transmit to: ... andShow: [ :a | a list showOn: ... using: [ browser morph ==> transmit to: ... andShow: [ :a | a morph Action list #simpleActionList Allowing all nil #allowAllNil Allowing nil #allowNil Drop-down #dropDownList [ Drop-down with initial value #dropDownListWithInitialValue Fix size pane #fixSizePanes Morph icons #morphIcons Tags #compoundTaggedTree Updated selection #listsWithUpdatedSelection (no glmBrowser pragma) #singleInitialSelection [*4] #sendTo:from:with: ==> #transmit:port: ; #from: ; #transformed Updated selection #listsWithUpdatedSelection [*6] Transcript ==> Inspector (not really a significant change?) Action list #simpleActionList [*3,6] Menus #staticAndDynamicMenu [*6] DOES NOT WORK IN 4.6 #interdependentPanes - code is flagged as not working. does not work in 4.5 either. FIXED IN 4.6, WAS NON-WORKING IN 4.5 Double click #doubleClick #simpleTable #textPortsExamples #accumulator - Accumulator - looks like an example design change to separate concerns. Double clicking a number in the left pane, in the right pane brings up... 4.5 - number tab with sub-tabs 'List' & 'Text' as well as a connect-menu item 'Inspect' 4.6 - number tab only, no sub-tabs or context menu WORKS FROM EXAMPLE BROWSER BUT NOT FROM METHOD COMMENT #textSelection - execute from method comment works in 4.5 but fails in 4.6 with unknown selector #textSelectionInterval. OPERATES THE SAME - CODE DIFFERENCE AS NOTED Dashboard #dashboard Dashboard specifying extents #dashboardWithSpecificExtents Dashboards in dashboard #dashboardsInDashboard Composite arrangements #differentComposites Complex morphs (StarBrowser simulation) #starBrowser EyeSee interactive bar chart #eyeseeBarDiagram Mondrian painting #mondrianPainting Multiple actions #multipleActions Simple Expander #simpleExpander Smart lists #treeWithAmountFiltering Stacker #stacker Tabs with different actions #tabsWithDifferentActions Three inter-dependent panes #threeInterdependentPanes Tree with children by level #treeWithChildrenByLevel Tree with expansion #treeWithExpansion (no glmBrowser pragma) #taggedTree (no glmBrowser pragma) #multiInitialSelection [*1,3] - but I am only able to multi-select contiguous items with the SHIFT key. I am unable to multi-select non-contiguous items as I would expect using the CTRL key. Instead a context menu for MorphTreeMorph appears. Is this unfortunate behaviour just me? #magritte - This was one a was I was REALLY interested to see regarding the update to Magritte 3. However the code is identical to 4.5. Both 4.5 and 4.6 produce the same error.... [Save] ==> error MAWriteError: Not supposed to write to something. [Cancel] ==> no change. Now without knowing anything about Magritte, I would expect the text box to revert to the original text. What would actually be a fantastic example here would be a small address book of a few entries that browsed a list in one pane and in another the magritte detail could be edited. #tableWithIcons 4.6 also adds alternating icons. 4.5 broken & does not transmit to next pane, but same code to 4.6 does work. selectionAct: [:tree | tree inspect ] ==> selectionAct: [:tree | tree selection inspect ] This has been improved in 4.6 to auto-expand when moving from [first tree] to [second tree] However in both 4.5 & 4.6, upon initial opening and when switching from [first tree] to [second tree] an erroneous additional line spacing occurs as shown in _ treeWithInitialSelection-extra-line-spacing.jpg _ (attached) #treeWithMenu - might need the same change to selectionAct: as for #tableWithIcons #treeWithTags [*1] #treeWithTagsMoreLevels [*1] - it would be good if after deselecting the tags, it remembered which node had previously been expanded. When when I click a tag twice, I expect to get back the same view I had before. #updateableBrowser [*1] Completely different code and operation. What is the difference in operation between the 'Upadted automatically' tab and 'Updated via menu' - #validator [*6] #validatorDynamic [*6] - but I don't actually see any difference to operation of #validator method - what am I missing ? #wizard - it is not clear how to get the selected items <treeWithInitialSelection-extra-line-spacing.gif>_______________________________________________ Moose-dev mailing list Moose-dev(a)iam.unibe.ch https://www.iam.unibe.ch/mailman/listinfo/moose-dev
