Thanks Ken,
thank you for sharing.
That's a lot like I'm working. I am a bit too impatient for the loading times (assuming you presented on a 'normal' computer and me often using a Pi down to A+) but I still can save images so I think that would be ok. What about Projects and Flaps, can they be added to Cuis?
Cheers,
Herbert

I'm actually surprised to see that someone uses these any more; is this still a popular thing? I'd be very happy to see them go away in most respects. I suppose Projects could be argued to have some utility for the 'rescue project' but I don't think I've seen anyone use Flaps in decades.

Hi Tim,
not sure about popularity and as you see I'm happy to use older versions. And I do little coding in Squeak nowadays. It's still a great tool for thought though.
Actually the below is for discussing some electronics with a customer. He (non technical person) can use it because each project has a button 'Back to overview'. I have more complex stuff. :-) These are quickly built and I hoped that 'More Direct Morpic' even might make it quicker. (It would with projects and flaps to move stuff between projects.)
Any alternatives in Squeak I am missing?
Cheers,
Herbert

Interesting use of Projects. You linked them up visually with Connectors, right?
And your signature generator had the right choice again :-))
I sometimes worry about whether it has become sentient. And what does that mean when I reboot the Mac? See also the season 2 first episode of 'Love Death and Robots'

nope, just Arrows from the Object tool. Usually with visible handles. Always as simple as possible.
I know you are doing beautiful things. For me it's about brainstorming. Costs, UI (physical buttons and sliders for the electronics, mouse miles for GUIs Implement elsewhere), sometimes keep together stuff I learned.
Cheers,
Herbert

I use flaps! Specifically, in my experimentation with squeak-on-a-cellphone, I put the on screen keyboard in a flap, and open the flap automatically whenever keyboard focus switches to something non-nil:
newKeyboardFocus: aMorphOrNil aMorphOrNil ifNil: [OnScreenKeyboardMorph hideFlap] ifNotNil: [(OnScreenKeyboardMorph future: 200) raiseFlap]. ^ super newKeyboardFocus: aMorphOrNil.
It works surprisingly well for this. Being able to adjust the height of the keyboard by moving the flap, etc.
Cheers, Tony

I like flaps. :-) But I don't use them.

I also use flaps to move windows between projects (in particular to parent projects), and to stash away windows related to a topic that I will continue later, to declutter my screen. Most of the time I don't know in advance that I will want a separate project for all those windows when I start digging into something. Otherwise I use projects as the multiple desktops substitute, or as the task-focused interface as Eclipse Mylyn would call it...
But I usually do not use the contents of the flaps that come preinstalled.

I do use both.
