Hello group,
I am planning to make a new image map component for pier. Does anyone know
of anything like this pre-existing? If not I need a little bit of help:
I want my Image map Pier component to be configured from the settings
command so I need to know how to use Magritte to build the GUI. My ideal
representation (at least that I have thought of so far) would be a
Dictionary. For every Coordinate string there is an image string (file
location) to go with it. It is a direct one to one, but the two members of
this relationship are both strings. And I want them to wind up getting
added to the dictionary. My preference would be that the ImageMap component
has a #addCoord:withImage: method that gets called for each entry.
I did not see how this could be done in Magritte from the tutorials or
source code. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

No, but there are many add-on components available from <http://
mc.lukas-renggli.ch/pieraddons.html>. This might be an interesting
starting point.

Magritte doesn't know how to add and remove entries from a
dictionary. Of course, this can be changed, but I think the easiest
would be the following:
1. Create an Area class with described fields for the coordinate and
image string (exactly as in the tutorial).
2. Create a subclass of PRStructure with a field to hold the areas.
Describe the field with something like:
^ (MAToManyRelationDescription selector: #areas label: 'Areas'
priority: 400 default: OrderedCollection new)
classes: (OrderedCollection with: Area);
yourself
That should work (untested).
Cheers,
Lukas

Thanks, I may try that. But first, is there a way to just add strings in a
container? I see there is
a way to remove a set of objects (e.g. the settings on the commands
component), but can I have like one of those box container displays and
above it a string and I click add and it goes into the container, and
therefor the box?

No, I don't think so, unless you create your own description/editor
that does exactly what you want.

Oh a totally unrelated to my last question note: In pier how does one make
a picture as a link to an internal page? I know you can do *My
text>internal page*, but I didn't see how to do this with an image.
Thanks

This is not really possible at the moment, however you can mix XHTML
and the Wiki syntax anywhere in the system as long as you only intend
to use the pages on the Web.

Yea, that's the problem. I am converting my wife's band web page to pier,
and they used team fussion to build it. It has a lot of pictures that link
to internal pages, so I have to duplicate all that. But if there is no way,
I guess I can just do some CSS tricks. :)
