HI guys
I did a demo yesterday and the new little icon does not work from a ui perspective. When you do change like that it would be good that: - they are discussed in the mailing-list - that proposed changed are not worse than before: a check button is not an actuator it is a check box.

Hi Stef,
This was announced prominently, but nobody reacted. I am happy that at least now someone noticed :).
You do not have an accept button for source code, and this still works somehow. You do not need one here either. At most you need a toolbar, and this is what you get.
Regarding the icon, this is highly used in multiple user interfaces including in Pharo: just right click and look at the menu :). But, then again, you do not do that because you actually do not need this one.

Just a note: This interface is based on Glamour. Thus, it has a uniform UI metaphor that will be valid throughout the entire Moose user interface. So, you will always know that you have to look at the top right for actions. And you will know that actions have a black icon.
And maybe soon, throughout the IDE as well :)

The new easel is indeed nice. However, I feel that the examples should be available. This is what people use the most.
Having a kind of help, on what Mondrian is about would also be cool. This is a general comment about Moose in general. There are plenty of option that I have no idea what they are about.
I see there is Moose Help. Mondrian has also one. We could add it?

+1 for the example
currently I use the Easel window from the "main moose menu" which is still "old style".
It seems there are some issues with the new button. Sometimes, when we changed the script, clicking on the button would not consider the chqnges but still use the previous script. so we had to click on it again, but it also seems it does not do qnything if the script does not change, so we had to fake a change by putting a non significant space somewhere ...
If needed, I can try to give more formal replication instructions.

Hi,
The non-refreshing of text in some cases is a known issue and it is indeed a bug in the Glamour rendering. I have been asking for a proper way to get these updates on the Pharo mailing list, but I did not get a full solution yet.
Here is the issue: http://code.google.com/p/moose-technology/issues/detail?id=701
It would be great to get any help in this area.

"It's not how it is, it is how we see it."
I'm not complaining about that. I was not aware of it even if I saw it.
the semantics of the generate view from a user perspective is please refresh the view
generate was a software engineer term conveying in a wrong way the implementation to the user (who does not care).

Hi Alex,
I am happy you like it.
I disagree for having the examples in the main editor, though. The use case related to examples is not the same as the one related to editing in "production". But, there should be a browser of examples, just like we have one for Glamour. This can serve very nicely as a documentation.

For some versions of 'works'. I still remember that the strange modality of the class browser was one of the things that stopped me from 'getting' smalltalk the first time I tried it (and the second). No visible feedback on the availability of a (different) context menu, like in the Seaside panel, is a major issue in the discoverability of the user interface.
Currently, the only way to get proficient in using Smalltalk is to sit next to an experienced Smalltalker. Even though Pharo is making good improvements, there is still way too much hidden functionality that is different from 'mainstream' environments.

Hi Stephan,
Sure. I mentioned accept for the icon, not for the current design. In the current design of the easel, you get the toolbar with actions displayed, which is a significant improvement over what exists in Pharo.

I do not understand at all what you are saying.
From a user the fact that we compile code in the back is arcane.
It is an implementation details.
The button "generate view" (even if refresh view would be better) is simpler and from an end user it conveys what is does.
The check box is bad because as a mondrian user I have to guess that may be I should click on it, I have to guess that code is generated (while I do not give a shit of knowing that).
Doru did you try to on a newbie the basic on user interface design: ask three guys to tell what they think aloud. Because with andre we thought it was a bug. But we are probably stupid.
Now since you are doing the changes excellent, let us keep them But I think that they are bad.

Exactly :). You never look at the contextual menu when you accept your changes. Once you got use to the metaphor, it's just natural.
I do not understand at all what you are saying.
Right click on a code pane, and you will see that accept has a green check icon.
From a user the fact that we compile code in the back is arcane.
It is an implementation details.
The button "generate view" (even if refresh view would be better) is simpler and from an end user it conveys what is does.
As I said. Perhaps you have a better icon in mind, but please keep in mind that from this point on everywhere in Moose we have a constant metaphor for handling actions.
The check box is bad because as a mondrian user I have to guess that may be I should click on it, I have to guess that code is generated (while I do not give a shit of knowing that).
Doru did you try to on a newbie the basic on user interface design: ask three guys to tell what they think aloud. Because with andre we thought it was a bug. But we are probably stupid.
You are not stupid. You just expected to see what you were used to see.

Regarding the icon, this is highly used in multiple user interfaces including in Pharo: just right click and look at the menu :).
where?
Exactly :). You never look at the contextual menu when you accept your changes. Once you got use to the metaphor, it's just natural.
I do not understand at all what you are saying.
Right click on a code pane, and you will see that accept has a green check icon.
From a user the fact that we compile code in the back is arcane.
It is an implementation details.
The button "generate view" (even if refresh view would be better) is simpler and from an end user it conveys what is does.
As I said. Perhaps you have a better icon in mind, but please keep in mind that from this point on everywhere in Moose we have a constant metaphor for handling actions.
The check box is bad because as a mondrian user I have to guess that may be I should click on it, I have to guess that code is generated (while I do not give a shit of knowing that).
Doru did you try to on a newbie the basic on user interface design: ask three guys to tell what they think aloud. Because with andre we thought it was a bug. But we are probably stupid.
You are not stupid. You just expected to see what you were used to see.
Now since you are doing the changes excellent, let us keep them But I think that they are bad.
Thanks. I think they are not.
But, again, I do not see why this escalation. Please let's have a conversation without ultimatums.
because you give the impression that there is no discussion possible.
As a user of the easel I do not need to know that the code get compile. I just need something in my referential refresh erase publish
No accept or I do no know what
