Constrained variable width of Plaground/Inspector panes

Hi,

is it possible to programatically change the width of Playground/Inspector panes?

Currently if I want one pane bigger I have to resize both which wastes a lot of space (I need to resize twice as much).

eg:

I wouldn't mind having a "special playground" just for this particular use case. There is also Roassal Easel

However I would like to have the code on a side rather than underneath because code is tall, not wide.

Thanks,

Peter

No idea, but your visualizations are gorgeous!

Peter, in the Roassal2Spec package (in the mail Roassal repository) there is a SpecEasel class that I think does exactly what you want.

Thanks Johan, I'll take a look.

Maybe it will need some tweaking such as syntax highlighting and keyboard shortcuts, but this is what I was looking for. :)

Improve it and tweak it as much as you like, it was mainly intended as a demonstrator of how to use the Roassal spec plugin. So as long as that part remains clear, the cooler the tool the better it is :-).
