World menu in new look
by Bernhard Pieber 06 Nov '04

06 Nov '04

I really like the new look of 3.9alpha. However, so far I did not find a fast way to the open menu. The fastest way I found was the following: 1. Right klick on world. 2. Left klick on old desktop menu.... 3. Left klick on open. That's one klick more for the most common operation I use. Did I miss something? Thanks for your great work! - Bernhard

[BUG] Installing BFAV2 Installer from SqueakMap fails in Squeak3.9alpha-6404
by Bernhard Pieber 06 Nov '04

06 Nov '04

I just downloaded the newest Squeak3.9a-6404.zip and tried to install BFAV2 Installer version 2.12. First, SqueakMap warns me that BFAV2 Installer might not be compatible with Squeak3.9alpha. When I proceed nevertheless I get the following error: 'No published release for this system version found to install.' - Bernhard

[ENH] Number>>asScaledDecimal
by David T. Lewis 06 Nov '04

06 Nov '04

Adds a Number>>asScaledDecimal method. Background: I am using this in TimeZoneDatabase to select a numeric data type for instances of PointInTime. Squeak has #asScaledDecimal: but did not have #asScaledDecimal (no parameter required). This change set permits the data type selector for PointInTime to be #asScaledDecimal rather than #asFloat. It turns out by the way that ScaledDecimal works quite nicely for representing time. Dave

[Q] Squeak 3.8beta 6351 Tools flaps gone
by Lic. Edgar J. De Cleene 06 Nov '04

06 Nov '04

Just downloaded another image more. When using unstable, I know all could be wrongor odd and take my chances. When using some more conservative , like 3.8 beta , I suppose no big shocks. So, any could educate me what is the reason for not having Tools flap anymore? I figure how forced image to have it, as I did in unstable. But what is the point for normal user not have this what I bet 1 Argentine peso what is the more used in Squeak ? Edgar "Advocatus Diaboli"

Mac OSX display depth colour oddness
by Tim Rowledge 06 Nov '04

06 Nov '04

I've just been testing out something in a 3.8b image on my pMac and noticed a strange colour effect. The default for the vanilla image is 16bpp and it looked just awful on a 32bpp display - very visible dithering on the gradient backgrounds of the menus, change in desktop colour etc. Setting Squeak to 32bpp made it looked ok. On Acorn it looks the same in 16 or 32bpp settings. :-) tim -- Tim Rowledge, tim(a)sumeru.stanford.edu, http://sumeru.stanford.edu/tim Useful random insult:- Failed the Turing test.
