Hi Norbert,
Thanks for the feedback.
Just to clarify the terms.
When we mention verbs related to Pier manipulation, we refer to
commands. So, to edit a page means to invoke the Edit command on that
page. When we refer to other types of edits we typically name them
(e.g., Settings, Edit Design).
Related to Document/PRDocumentWidget, the first refers to the way a
regular user sees the widget in the Pier UI (when choosing the
component class), and the second refers to the name of the Smalltalk
class.
I understood that you were taking a user point of view, so I am
actually confused about how you see PRDocumentWidget in the drop down
list when selecting the component class.
I see only the class names in the drop down. Maybe this is something
gemstone dependent.
Norbert
Cheers,
Doru

https://www.iam.unibe.ch/mailman/listinfo/smallwiki Hi Norbert,
Just embed the document in the environment and you will get an extra
place to fill text in when you edit a page with that environment.
Thanks, but it is really hard to understand what you are writing.
For me as a user of pier "the document" has no meaning. For me it
would be "embed a PRDocumentWidget component into the environment".
And the phrase "when you edit a page" is right but for me there are
so many ways to edit things in pier I didn't figure out you mean
"_the_ Edit" :)
And while I didn't expect it on the same page where I edit the
contents of a page I overlooked the extra textinput field the first
time.
thanks again,
Norbert
Cheers,
Doru

https://www.iam.unibe.ch/mailman/listinfo/smallwiki Yes, the PRDocumentWidget is the right thing. I
don't know its
status
on GemStone, but it is already quite an old plugin.
