A few more ideas about preferences
 
|
It would be nice to have a message appear after package installation:
'A new preferences has been added , would you like to review them now' and if user answers yes - show him only those which is added. also, for unification - i think it is fine to treat an author settings (initials) as preference. Then if you submit any code - system could check if this preference is set and request it to be filled. -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig. _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project |

Preferences have to remain as simple as possible. The preference tool can offer a way to view preferences by package. > also, for unification - i think it is fine to treat an author settings > (initials) as preference. > Then if you submit any code - system could check if this preference is > set and request it to be filled. > yes , one can have also fonts, display depth, display color, display gradient in. So, what about Settings or Parameters as a package name instead of Preferences ? cheers alain _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project |

Its just a convenience measure. Say, if i just installed new package, i'd like to know if there any preferences i can play with. > Preferences have to remain as simple as possible. sure. But this is more about integration with Pharo as a consistent dev environment, which should show nice and friendly messages to user. You can keep preferences package clean, but make a separate one, like Pharo-Preferences-integration, where this stuff will live. I don't know if there's exists a system-wide event, like 'new package just installed', then any who willing to hook into it could react on such event. > The preference tool can offer a way to view preferences by package. Yes, this would be nice to group/filter preferences by package. >> also, for unification - i think it is fine to treat an author settings >> (initials) as preference. >> Then if you submit any code - system could check if this preference is >> set and request it to be filled. >> > yes , one can have also fonts, display depth, display color, display > gradient in. > So, what about Settings or Parameters as a package name instead of > Preferences ? don't see real difference.. > cheers > alain > > _______________________________________________ > Pharo-project mailing list > [hidden email] > http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project > -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig. _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project |
