Deploying a polymorph app - two questions

I have written a small Polymorph application in Pharo 2.0. I have some questions about deploying it.

My app consists of a single morph. I would like to fill the pharo window with the morph and have the morph resize when the user resizes the pharo window.

I'm pretty close to what I want. I have made my morph a subclass of FullscreenMorph and it is filling the window nicely.

I just need two things.

One - I need to change the pharo window title to the title of my application. I have tried DisplayScreen hostWindowTitle and it seems to have no effect.

Two - I need to get rid of the Pharo window status bar - the one at the bottom which shows you the various windows, browsers, and workspaces you have open.

Can anyone give me some guidance?

Thanks.

World changeProportionalLayout.
        World
  submorphs do: [:e | e delete ].
 
  (Smalltalk at: #PolymorphSystemSettings) perform: #desktopColor: with: (Color r: 0.78 g: 0.753 b: 0.71).
  ((Smalltalk at: #UITheme) perform: #currentSettings) perform: #windowColor: with: (Color r: 0.745 g: 0.745 b: 0.745).
        (Smalltalk at: #TaskbarMorph) perform: #showTaskbar: with: false

That’s what I do in Spec :)

For more info, you can have a look at WorldModel

Benjamin -

Many thanks.

Your suggestion of  World  submorphs do: [:e | e delete ] was just what I needed to get rid of the taskbar.

However,  DisplayScreen hostWindowTitle does not work for me. I'm not using Spec but surely that should make no difference. Is it a platform bug (I'm on ubuntu 13.04) or are you using pharo 3.0? I'm on pharo 2.0 (there is no WorldModel as far as I can see).

So, is DisplayScreen hostWindowTitle broken on pharo 2.0?

Might be, I am on mac + Pharo 3.0 and it works.

And I think that the Pharo Launcher uses this feature too and works on ubuntu.

So probably a problem in 2.0, or you are using an old vm maybe

Does not work in pharo 3.0 either on my ubuntu system.

My VM is dated 13/03/2013. I don't think I'm using a particularly old one.

Done.
