And that's why I have big impatience to look at code and learn object design of your system. For example I'am very interested how you decompose big morph object in shapes environment, how you implement layout engines, how it compared to cuis simple morphic and newspeak Hopscotch approaches. > What's preventing me from releasing it now, is that the > MultipleLinesTextEditor based on Cairo/Pango isnt 100% finished, so > you can type and edit multiple lines of text, and methods.

And actually for my applications I need just simple labels, icons, single line input fields, and flexible layouts. In any case thank's for your effort. > Fernando > > On Fri, Sep 28, 2012 at 11:31 PM, Denis Kudriashov <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Hello > > > > ss3 repo for Shapes and Gaucho closed for reading or maybe empty. > > So is it possible to get it somewhere? maybe there is prepared image? > > > > Actually I gather migrate our applications to last Pharo and use latest > achievemens like fuel and tanker. > > And of course I want vector graphics for user interface by athens. > > And I very very excited about shapes which gives clean and powerfull > morphic replacement (Am I right?) > > > > But to understand amount of work for such big changes I should see > shapes livelly.
