G'day all
Working recently with a number of large morphs open at the same time, I got frustrated with the difficulty in handling them, and created this little changeset to overcome the problem.
It creates a menu (press shift-cntrl and press a mouse button) which shows the top level morphs in the world, and allows you to shuffle, delete, collapse or hide them.
(A bit like the application menu on the Mac)
This leads me to a question - windows have some very handy features, like collapse and expand and the way in which the focus is changed, which are a great help when using the system. Morphs don't have those features, or have them in a less accessible way (like through halos).
Is the aim in Squeak to eventually move most of the morphs in 'applications' like Tetris/FreeCell etc into SystemWindows, or will people be using a system where there are lots of 'naked' morphs on the desktop?
Do people prefer working in SystemWindows, or using Halo and 'naked' morphs? Or is there a third option?
Does SC have a preference?
