Thank you, I have read it, and I believe I understood the concepts. I
will try it soon and get back to you afterwards.

Thank you, I was able to install Spec on 1.4. I have seen the example
with the multiple selection list. I will try to solve my problems by
using Spec, and I sure will bother you if I run into problems ;)
Cheers,
Edouard.

Hi all,
I tried to build my first user interface with Pharo. I ran into
some problems, I have a bunch of questions. These are certainly
quite simple to answer for any veteran... If any of you could so
kind as to not only answer them but also to tell me where I sould
have looked for the answer, this would be awesome.
I used Pharo By Example as well as the pharocasts and the
occasional google search to find info.
My code can be found at :

- I build the UI by hand, this is tiresome. Is there a GUI UI
builder ? I found Morphic designer
(https://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/hirschfeld/trac/SqueakCommunityProjects/wiki/designer)
and UIBuilder
(http://forum.world.st/CLFramework-UIBuilder-td1302485.html) but
it is unclear if any or both are the Right Way (tm) of doing
things with Pharo.
So far there is not easy solution. We are working on Spec but we
should stabilize it first.
Did you check UITheme examples?
- As you can see if you do RecipeEditor new open, there is a lot
of wasted space. Lists do not expand to take all the vertical
space they could. What is the workaround for that ?
- I have a list created by :
nodeList := ListModel new list: SortedCollection new.
put on screen by :
builder newListFor: self list: #nodeList selected:
#selectedNodeIndex changeSelected: #selectNodeAtIndex: help:
'Liste des étapes'.
and I use :
nodeList list at: (nodeList selectionIndex)
on the press of a button to get the selected element of a list. I
would like this list to allow for multiple selection, and I would
like to get the list of selected elements. I tried to fool around
with some methods having "multiple" in their name, but to no avail.
may be ben will be able to help you.
I have actually never played with ListModel :s
But if you wanna play a bit with the morphs directly, I can help
you (or if you want to experiment Spec ;) )
I would like to experiment Spec, but I am unable to install it.
Shall I use Paro 2.0 ? (Currently using 1.4). I am not sure I tried
the right methods. What should I do from a clean brand new image to
install it ?
=========================================================
Gofer new
url: 'http://ss3.gemstone.com/ss/Spec';
package: 'ConfigurationOfSpec';
load.
(Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfSpec) perform: #loadFull
=========================================================
It works in 1.4 and in 2.0.
Then you could have a look at the category named Spec-Examples :)
If you want I have a really out dated doc, but I do not think it
useful anymore (but I will rewrite it soon).
And if you have questions, I will be glad to answer :)

Sorry again, but have fun still,

- The text fields require the user to accept (command-S) the
modification before I can get the content with getText. Is there
a good way to get the non accepted text ?
I tried to to an UI with tk before, and compared to that it has
been a breeze with Smalltalk, the way one can write the highest
level call and then use the debugger to create methods and
variables on the fly is very enjoyable.
We really have to improve because I'm not satisfied with the
current state but we want to get it right.
Thank you in advance,
Cheers,
Edouard.
