Hi,
Yes, we will still evolve the UI. At the very least you will get the
shortkeys directly on the actions.
The answer to your question is in the blog post:
GTSpotter offers an extra action: diving in a category. Pressing
Cmd+Shift+ArrowRight dives in the collection object containing only the
items from that category. Thus, we can continue refining the search inside
the category.
So, you will open the collection of that sub-category and you will see more
items at once (not just 5). Is it clearer now?
Cheers,
Doru

Hola,
Andrei demoed it to me on friday and it is *extremely* cool. I can’t wait
to start using it for my next development session.
I have one request though (as I already mentioned to Andrei). Since you
are using a significant part of the screen, it would not be costly to (e.g.
at the bottom) put a small legend of the non-obvious keystroke
combinations. It would greatly increase discoverability of the features of
the tool.
Considering the blog post, the legend would be ( I don’t understand the
difference between the last 2):
Cmd+Shift+ArrowUp/ArrowDown = Next/Prev category, Cmd+RightArrow = Dive
into, Cmd+Shift+RightArrow = ???

Hi,
Alex Syrel, Andrei Chis and I are happy to announce a new addition to
the
Glamorous Toolkit:
GTSpotter, a novel interface for spotting
objects.
GTSpotter has two goals:
- Provide a uniform yet moldable interface that can work on any object,
and
- Handle searching through arbitrary levels of
object nesting.
We think this will have a significant impact on the development workflow
in
Pharo.
Here is a couple of screenshots:

A trailer is available here:

A detailed description is available here:
http://www.humane-assessment.com/blog/introducing-gtspotter
It works already in Pharo 3.0 and can be played with by following the
instructions
from:

Please let us know what you think.
Enjoy,
The Glamorous Team
