Hi,
Nice. However, in order to be more useful I think we should address at
least these two points:
- a name cloud is typically useful as a grouping of entities. Thus, we
should not just add strings, but we should add objects and ways to obtain a
textual representation from them. Then, the model behind each label should
be provided by all objects that contain that label.
- the tags should be aligned as text, not on top. I know it is less
comfortable to do this in Roassal, but I think otherwise it looks less nice
:). Or maybe we use another kind of layout, such as a rectangle packing one?
Cheers,
Doru

Hi!
I have added a name cloud builder in Roassal. Maybe some of you will find
it useful
It is very primitive and does do much, but it does the primitive things :-)
Here is an example:
=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=
RTNameCloud new
addString: 'open
| v shape |
v := RTView new.
shape := RTLabel new height: [ :assoc | assoc value ]; text: #key.
v addAll: (shape elementsOn: table associations).
RTFlowLayout on: v elements.
v open';
open
=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=
It produces:
A slightly more complicated example:
=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=
| b |
b := RTNameCloud new.
b addStrings: (RTNameCloud methods collect: #getSource).
b open
=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=
produces:
We did this name cloud builder because we had a need to process text
extracted from StackExchange. We added a dictionary containing words that
are not interesting. For example:
=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=
| b |
b := RTNameCloud new.
b minHeight: 20.
b maxHeight: 30.
b addString: 'I am not that tall but I speak many languages. But I have
tall legs and big feet'.
b open
=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=
It produces:
Words such as ‘I’, ‘not’, ‘that’, ‘but’ are not shown.
Cheers,
Alexandre
