Re: [Cuis-dev] Is there a pull-right hierarchical menu in Cuis?

Stephen Pope

Thanks to all those who responded to my query about hierarchical menus; the answer was indeed “RTFM.”

Here’s a screen shot of my new (smaller & faster) world menu. I’ll send the code out after I’ve tested it a bit more.

Hi Stephen.

Welcome to Cuis!

Check World / New morph...  This opens the 'Add a new morph' menu that has several levels of submenus. Would this work for you?

Cheers,

The title says it all; my app (Siren) uses hierarchical menus extensively

be many-click menus as in Squeak.

Is there an implementation of true hierarchical/pull-right menus in Squeak
or any of its descendants.

One thing you will probably discover is tat the gap between the menus can be a killer; if a mouse event touching the gap gets processed you will likely lose the submenu.  I thought we had fixed that at least a release ago though. In my 5.3 image I see this - 
note the slight overlap in this case.

A bug in the hand is better than one as yet undetected.

Thanks Stephen. It is a good idea. We'd integrate that.

Cheers,

... and I'd certainly urge the equivalent in Squeak.

Looks good. However, having icons for each and every item defeats the purpose of icons supporting visual/manual look up.

Best,

Why do you think so? :-)
Especially if you are not familiar with the tool names, a magnifying icon can be more intuitive for "search" than the name "Message Names", just for example.
