Hi Johan,
OK :-( In the mean time is there a way to have a layout where there
is a label above each presentation? The label would then hold the
title ...
Nope :(, but I hope that in a short while there will be.
No problem :).
I understand the sendToOutside: part, but I dont see how the outside
receives these selection messages and can store the selections, e.g.
in a local variable. Can you enlighten me here?
When you have multiple #from: statements, you will get multiple
variables in the #display: block. Something like this:
outerBrowser showOn: #main; fromOutside: #entity; from: #properties-
Bad luck on my part, but OK this is not that important ;-)
:)
Cheers,
Doru
Hi Johan,
Thanks :-) I would like to use Glamour for all the 'configuration'
parts, and Mondrian for rendering the visualization. I hope I can
get everything working together well ...
part of AspectMaps is a polymetric view of
classes and aspects.
For that I want to use Glamour to specify the metrics for the
dimension.
Pretty nice :). The code
below shows what I have (and will embed in another
browser at some point) which leads me to 2 questions and a bug.
First question: how can I let each browser show its title? With 6
of these it's easy to be confused which is which.
You hit another issue that is on the to do list, unfortunately. I
saw that actually I forgot to open an issue, so I created a new one:
http://code.google.com/p/moose-technology/issues/detail?id=259 But, just to
make communication easier, here is a short sentence
that summarizes the main terms in Glamour: A Browser is composed of
Panes that are displayed via one or more Presentations.
So, in your case, you actually refer to the presentations or to the
panes, and not to the browser.
Thanks, sorry for the confusion. Second question: at some point in the mondrian script
I need to
retrieve the selections in each browser. (I dont want to
automatically repaint when a selection is changed). How can I do
this?
As I understand, you will want to embed this browser in another
browser (let's call this the outerBrowser). As a browser
encapsulates the internal state, you have to explicitly specify
what gets out and under what name. To do that, you will have to do
something line:
browser sendToOutside: #selectedCHeight from: #cheight.
Afterwards, in the outerBrowser you might have something like:
outerBrowser column: #main; column: #properties.
outerBrowser showOn: #properties; using: [
outerBrowser custom: browser ].
outerBrowser showOn: #main; fromOutside: #entity; from: #properties-
>#selectedCHeight ... #selectedCHeight; #properties->#selectedCWidth;
using: [
browser mondrian
painting: [:view :cheight :cwidth | ... ]
]
The bug: in the code below add a size: 100 to both
column
specifications, and you get a nice ZeroDivide error :-/
The fix size panes are not properly supported by the
MorphicRenderer :(, so this will have to wait again.
