Re: [Pharo-users] GUI Builder

You got 2 options

a) for regular GUIs a combination of halos and inspector will give the
information you need about the proper location, size etc and allow you to
fine tune your morphs far easier than doing it by code

b) for custom GUIs you divert the design to a proper design application
like gimp , photoshop or blender and create the look you want with the
elegance of custom design, you can take a look on my ChronosManager project
at Catalog browser as an example of how you can import images with
transparency

NON PHARO OPTIONS

c) this option I have not tried but it should be possible to design also a
custom GUI using a vector designer , like adobe illustrator or Inkscape and
import those vectors as svgs formats back to Pharo. Athens has an SVG
importer and so does Roassal.

d) also you can use HTML and Seaside/PharoJS and leverage well know
technologies like js dom/html5/CSS as you may be aware there are a ton of
tools out there that design GUIs using these technologies

e) you could use my Python bridge to use PyQT that uses QT probably the
most powerful GUI out there that also come with a super powerful GUI
designer called QTCreator which has evolved it full blown IDE, this one
requires knowledge of Python and you may have to modify the bridge to fit
your needs

f) if you are not in a hurry I am making a Pharo to Unreal bridge which
gives access not only 2D GUIs but also 3D GUIs with the graphic
capabilities of AAA games and the added bonus of Virtual Reality GUIs if
you want to blow the minds of your users.

I could carry on but I think you can figure out the rest by yourself.

[Pharo-users] The Ultimate Smalltalk Tutorial

[horrido]

GoFundMe for the Ultimate Smalltalk Tutorial
  . The
plan is to create a complete and full-featured tutorial showing how to write
a Seaside application using Pharo. The tutorial is aimed at rank beginners
who know absolutely nothing about programming and who need a great deal more
hand-holding than Prof Stef. It will provide an alternative to JavaScript
bootcamps that are gobbling up programming beginners at a prodigious rate.
This is quite a substantial undertaking.

Thank you.

Wow! How did I miss this??? It looks great!

I guess I have to modify my campaign to avoid overlap. Thanks.

Hi Horrido,

did you have a look at the Pharo Mooc? http://files.pharo.org/mooc/ it has 
exactly the same target audience and also covers Seaside.

[Pharo-users] GUI Builder

[Roman G]

Im sorry if this a repeated question. I´m a newbie to Pharo. I would like
to know what are the available tools for designing GUIs for desktop
applications (a la Delphi/Visual Basic). In the Pharo by Example book there
is only one chapter dedicated to GUI building by code.

Thanks in advance.
