Pallets

Greetings,

I have been playing around with pallets, which are essentially parts bins. Just grab a graphic and drag.

Not much there as yet, but kind of fun.

This is prototype code, but if someone thinks it useful...

https://github.com/KenDickey/Cuis-Smalltalk-BabySteps

File: Morphic-Display-Pallet.pck.st

See examples in the class side of ImagePallet.

Good on ya,
-KenD

Re: Pallets

Hey Ken, this is really cool! I was actually going to do something like this on that lazy Sunday that never came. I especially like that you did a color picker (we've been without the [awful] one from Squeak.) It would be nice to have a color picker again. Reading your code now, thinking about it. Will write back with any feedback if lightbulbs go off in my head.

Hi Ken!!

Really cool, again code to learn from (to my at least)!! Thanks for sharing.

I guess this could be a step for another more important project ;)

Thanks for thoughtful reading.

The good thing about all of our code is that it is just like a pallet -- anyone pick it up and do something with it.

Thanks again to Juan for showing a simpler way. From drag-n-drop morph to parts-bin with a single, one line, method. That is a hard act to follow.

How lean can we be and still have a rich, vibrant enviroment?

That is well worth thinking about.

Thanks again Juan!

Indeed. That's an excellent question. And a great guiding principle when
looking for stuff to remove / clean / simplify just for the fun of doing
it, and the joy of getting closer to that ideal.

Thank you Ken. The way you use Cuis and share what you do is just great.
It is the kind of thing that makes the effort of publishing it worthwhile.

Cheers,
Juan Vuletich
