Hi Denis - I went to look at an early squeak version and I think I was mistaken, properly drawn hierarchies were in VA and OW Smalltalks as well as Dolphin.
Pharo doesn't do this well at all - pressing the hierarchy ,button draws the hierarchy for the selected class only - even though you may be looking at 6 related classes in a package Eg, if a package had classes A, B, C, D - I wish I could see A +B +C +D And not just one of the hierarchies like it does now. Eh if B is selected you just get A + B and don't see the other classes at all. I found it useful in a single browser to visually understand (even if it's crude nesting) the relationships between classes. This greatly helps with refactoring and comprehension. And reduces clicking on everything to build that mental model. How do people figure out relationships in code in Pharo, is there some other tool?
