disagree :) here the reason: everybody can think their settings deserve better exposition, and then add a way to change the L&F to add a settings option. that will break inner coherence of Pharo. and we need to think *all tools* in pharo as one unique IDE… it has to be coherent. your little cog breaks coherence. I admit we need to do a pass on Settings browser to group better, explain better and remove unnecessary stuff… maybe on Pharo5 we will find the time. In the mean time, even without this argument (which I believe is already enough): giving such relevance to an option you will use just once is not good GUI design, sorry :) Esteban > > Cheers, > Andrei > > On Mon, Mar 9, 2015 at 5:42 PM, Esteban Lorenzano <[email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > >> On 09 Mar 2015, at 17:13, Tudor Girba <[email protected] >> <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: >> >> We want to add them to the settings window as well. > > is the “as well” part what does not convinces me: it goes *just* in the > settings window, I think :P > > >> >> Doru >> >> On Mon, Mar 9, 2015 at 5:03 PM, Esteban Lorenzano <[email protected] >> <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: >> Hi, >> >> So… I integrated latest GTools. >> I did it, but I disagree with the relevance the settings of GSpotter have >> now… I understand you want to collect usage, etc… but settings should be in >> settings panel, not “always on sight”. >> >> cheers, >> Esteban >> >> >> >> -- >> www.tudorgirba.com <http://www.tudorgirba.com/> >> >> "Every thing has its own flow" > >
