It would be great to be able to have the GTInspector ability to keep the view when selecting variables. For example:
If I click on t2, I would love to see the items tab, and not the state. I guess the fact that t2 has the same class than t1 should be a hint good enough no? By the way, shouldn’t the items view be the default view when I inspect a collection?
Again guys, I want to say, again, that you are doing a fantastic job. The Glamourous team rules!!!!

Hi Alex,
You spotted a known bug. The inspector does try to open the last selected presentation. If the presentation is not found, then it falls back to the first presentation (in most cases State). The problem in this case is that for a collection the title is variable (because it has the size in it - e.g., 5 Items) and because of that it is not recognized as being the same when you switch to another collection.
You also ask a relevant question: What should the default presentation be? Until now we made it State because we wanted to have as much resemblance with the classic inspector as possible. But, I think now, we can safely start to change that default. For collection, I also believe it makes sense to show Items by default.
Cheers, Doru

Is this the tool being integrated into Pharo for the first time? Maybe it would help acceptance if the default remained similar to the classic inspector. Then again, being in Pharo with with a wider audience, maybe its harder to change later. cheers -ben

Indeed, “Items” should be the default view.
