I'm using Mac and there's no right click and etc. I can make right click equivalent with Ctrl+Click but I cannot make shift+right click with shift + ctrl + click. This is my biggest problem. Maybe this is my fault?
Not at all. And I should have used Squeak's platform-independent terminology for the mouse buttons.
The shift + yellow-click is only a short-cut to the "tools" menu. I didn't know Mac users couldn't do this. Not a problem, you can still get to the tools menu one of two other ways:
- Yellow-click (or press Esc) and then select "tools (t)" - simply hover over the object and press "t" on the keyboard.
message is automatically executed. You may now close this "dialog" by pressing "x" while the outer blue box is highlighted.
Hmm, I cannot find 'x' for this box. But this is not that big problem anyway.
Ah, I was referring to "x" on the keyboard. :)
Also, if you press "l" or select "labelled" from the menu, it will make the object look more like a "window".
As you may have noticed, Maui has extensive keyboard support, allowing quick, two-handed operation of the UI. You don't have to press any command-key modifier either (i.e., Alt), just hover over the object you want to send a command so that it is outlined in green, then press the command on the keyboard.
right-clicking on collection object is rather tricky. But this works great(again) !
Yes. Since you must use the keyboard anyway to do this (Ctrl), I'm sure you will enjoy the short-cut command keys better with time.
Thanks again. Maui is very interesting. I think except some menu selecting problem(for me, Mac user) Maui is what I want to have.
One more tip, if you load the Connectors framework, all representations of the same identical object on-screen will be connected when you hover over them. This can be very handy as you build up a complex domain model with shared objects.
Thanks for your interest, Chris
