How to try Bloc?

I tried image from CI (both stable and dev) and I tried version by loading config in latest Pharo 6.

Both are not working for me. I run basicExamples:

- ci version said that this is some nil object inside

- config version just crashed.

Do you have instructions how to run it?

I tried it on Sierra Mac.

Best regards,

Denis

I use this script:

Gofer it

smalltalkhubUser: 'Pharo' project: 'Bloc';

configuration;

loadDevelopment

And examples are working now.

So question is how to open Bloc world?

Hi,

You do not have to switch to a Bloc world anymore. The current solution opens a new SDL window every time you what to open something in Bloc from a Morphic window.

Cheers,
Doru

it looks like it did not like my custom build image , in a clean on install fines apart from a warning that taskit overwrites its own files, examples work fine. Bloc is really nice, well done people

Hi Denis,
The new version of Brick has no public (ready to use) version right now and only some basic widgets are implemented.
I will finally move it to its "official" SmalltalkHub repository (Pharo/Brick) at the end of the week.
After, you will be able to play with it ;).

Regards,
Glenn.

There is no built-in Halo menu because Menu is based on widgets (aka Brick).
But there is a basic kind of Halo with basic tools (move, resize, inspect) that can be use on any elements.
You can find some uses of BlElementSelection in examples.

Regard,
Glenn.

Nice. I found it and some bug (I guess).

Try example #exampleRectWithElChildren and double click on internal element them try to resize it. You will see wrong size.

Also rotation work strangely. It rotates over left top of selection border. But I think it should be over selection center
