Learning Morphic

I am primarily interested in graphical shapes and bit maps (for fractals). I want to put graphical shapes or bitmaps in a window or bordered area. I have not been very successful in finding documentation about how to do this in Morphic. In contrast, I find the documentation for Roassal easy to find and to the point. Perhaps someone could point me to Morphic documentation (or supply examples) on my area of interest that includes a lot of examples. Thanks.

Re: Learning Morphic

In the Pharo by Example book there is one chapter about Morphic. It is a
good starter.

Regarding the use of Athens canvas there is no such doc. You can take a
look at the internal of Roassal or DrGeo or any package using Athens for
graphics rendering.

Morphic will be replaced by blocs

Hello Doug

You pushed me to try and I rescued an implementation for the old Squeak.
I published it at:

MCHttpRepository
location: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/StephaneDucasse/MandelBrotMorph/main'
user: ''
password: ''

MandelMorph2 example

If you want to improve it and implement others let me know I can give
write access to the repo.

Let me know if you have fun.

MandelMorph2 new openInWindow

Re: Learning Morphic

If what you are doing is an experiment or you want to play around with it, I would also recommend trying Bloc. https://github.com/pharo-graphics/Bloc

You could look at my project ChronosManager, you can download from inside Pharo and it’s main repo is here with a screenshot that demonstrates what it is

https://github.com/kilon/ChronosManager

Reading it’s code should give the info you seek , there are comments as well to help you

Stephan's screencasts are really good and they will give you an overview
of what is possible and which interesting experiments can be explored.

Cheers,
