Hi Antony,

The screenshot I posted was OB, and I have arbitrary space.

I very much like what I see in this screenshot. ;)
Any possibility to see how you do this browser?

You just need to address a particular OB flaw - the use of Text as the abstraction (?!) for an annotated presentation item that is subsequently rendered into a list.

Could you elaborate on that? I don't quite get this. How is the fact that we use text (or string) to represent labels of items to be rendered in lists related to the space usage in these lists due to icons? This annotated text is just one representation of the item, the icon is another one (kind of). So how could help us another abstraction here?


although to fix OB cleanly results in significant
breaking change, because while OB is a great prototype, like many things in Squeak, the prototype wasn't respected as such as has been used quite extensively. IMHO.

Very true.

David
