Re: [etoys-dev] Errors in Demon Castle (Etoys 4.1.2384)
by Steve Thomas 07 Sep '10

Here is my list of candidates for inclusion in 4.1: SQ-778 <http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-778> Copying objects between projects copies a Sketch and not the object<http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-778> SQ-779 <http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-779> If I drop an object in the Supplies Bin, it disappears when I switch projects.<http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-779> SQ-732 <http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-732>Make "usePopUpArrows" preference default value "true" to make it easier to click on Arrows in scripting tiles <http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-732> Without SQ-778 or SQ-779 I have no easily discoverable way to package up and re-use objects (or sets of objects) in another project other than rebuilding from scratch. I do not always want to re-mix an existing project as I may not realize until after I have already done considerable work that I want to use something from a different project. The way you can get around this is to build your own Quick Guides (nice feature), but then you need to be able to save them in the Quick Guides folder for your language. Which on a Mac requires you know enough to open the Etoys "package" and I am not sure how or if you can easily do this on an XO. Really Nice if simple quick safe fixes: SQ-547 <http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-547> When "Publishing a Project" the focus should be in Username<http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-547> SQ-651 <http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-651> Default font for connector label is too small<http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-651> *IMO*: Fixing this makes it a better candidate for replacing PowerPoint in the classroom SQ-652 <http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-652> Connector label position <http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-652> On Sat, Sep 4, 2010 at 12:13 PM, Randy Caton <rcaton(a)cnu.edu> wrote: > > > On Sep 4, 2010, at 6:41 AM, Bert Freudenberg <bert(a)freudenbergs.de> wrote: > > > On 04.09.2010, at 01:28, Cherry Withers wrote: > > Hi Team, > > > Randy and I encountered the same error in testing Demon Castle and Etoys > 4.1.2384: > > > This message appears during the part of the game when you have to resize > the key and put it in the hole then clicking the > > door. > > > "MessageNotUnderstood:AnObsoletePlayer6979106170120156>>next" > > "An error has occurred; you should probably just hit "abandon".

06 Sep '10

Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. Hideyuki Takada, Ritsumeikan University, Japan (C5 2011 Publicity and Publication Chair) ----- Call for Papers Ninth International Conference on Creating, Connecting and Collaborating through Computing (C5 2011) 18-20 January 2011 Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan http://www.cm.is.ritsumei.ac.jp/c5-11/ Computers, networks, and other forms of technology are pervasive in our information-based society. Unfortunately, most users of this technology use it for passive consumption of information and entertainment. To evolve into a true knowledge society it is critical that we transform computer-based human activities to engage users in the active process of creating, connecting, and collaborating together. The C5 conference is for anyone interested in the use of computers as tools to develop and enable user-oriented creation, connection, and collaboration processes. Researchers, developers, educators and users come together at C5 to present new and ongoing work and to discuss future directions for creative computing and multimedia environments. We welcome the submission of theoretical and technical papers, practitioner/experience reports, and papers that bridge the gap between theory and practice or that encourage inter- and cross-disciplinary study. === Submissions === C5 invites submissions of full papers in (but not limited to) the following areas: * Technology-enhanced human-computer and human-human interaction * Multimedia authoring environments * New technologies for literature, music and the visual arts * Virtual worlds and immersive environments * Gaming/entertainment platforms and infrastructure * Social networks and social networking * Novel programming paradigms and languages for implementors * Scripting or visual paradigms and languages for end-users * Creating and maintaining online communities * Tools for creating/managing online services/environments * Distributed and collaborative working * Educational environments for classroom, field work and online/distance learning * Technologies for collaborative and self-empowered learning * Social and cultural implications of new technologies Papers should be submitted electronically in PDF format via EasyChair at: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=c511 Submissions must be written in English (the official language of the conference) and must not exceed eight (8) pages. They should use the IEEE 10-point two-column format, templates for which are available at: http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/home === Proceedings === A preliminary version of the proceedings will be distributed during the conference. The formal version of the proceedings will be published by the Conference Publishing Services (CPS) and sent to authors after the conference. For each accepted paper, at least one of the authors needs to attend the conference and deliver the presentation; otherwise the paper will not be included in the formal proceedings. === Dates === Submission of papers: October 8, 2010 Author notification: November 19, 2010 Camera-ready copy: December 19, 2010 Conference: January 18-20, 2011
