Pardon me for butting in but
I am interested in creating a new Class of pop up menu in Pharo
that doesn't look or act anything like the standard pop up Menus
Kjell, you don’t neccessarily need to make a subclass of the current Menu, just so long as your class implements enough of the same methods that it works ok. It’s kind of an obvious point but one I see people forgetting far too often. You may not want many - or any - of the same instance variables or internal behaviours.
All you should need to do is implement your menu (round menus![1] with sparkles!) and add a way to decide which menu class gets used.
tim [1] round menus have actually been used, not least in the ancient Momenta Smalltalk based tablets of the late 80’s/very early 90’s. -- tim Rowledge; tim@rowledge.org; http://www.rowledge.org/tim Why do we want intelligent terminals when there are so many stupid users?
