Definitely. Indeed this beginner was not aware of the preference.

Eventually I tweaked the code to comply with the deprecation warning. But that could happen only because I learnt Smalltalk before Etoys. Which may not be the case for younger users.

It would be cool if users could turn the warnings off from the notifier that warns them. Then they wouldn't have to know that there is a preference, they would be told so right away.

You can turn off deprecation warnings in the preferences for now. :)

Hi,

This evening I learnt the basic of Etoys doing the "Falling ellipse" example from the book "Squeak - Object-Oriented Design with Multimedia Applications" (Guzdial pg.164-172).

Problem. There are so many deprecation warnings going through this simple exercise (in Squeak-5.2 #update 18232) that only a highly motivated person would be patient enough to kill/ignore all of them.

For the moment I am not able to fix it myself, better I can do is to signal you the issue;)
