There are a couple of things that would be great to be extended:

- The cells with no dependency are not particularly relevant, and they should appear transparent. Hovering can still remain.

- The order has to be improved. To this end, take a look at the DSM work of Jannik. At the end, he extracted the algorithm in separate packages:

Gofer new 

smalltalkhubUser: 'Moose' project: 'DSM';

package: 'Moose-Algos-Dsm'

package: 'Moose-Dsm-Core';

package: 'Moose-Dsm-Example';

package: 'Moose-Dsm-Famix';

load

The code does not seem to work anymore in Moose 6.0, but it would be great to salvage at least the basics and add that into Moose-Algos (which ideally would become a prerequisite for Roassal :)).

- We also need the cyclic information. Actually, adding cycles would be probably enough as an ordering. In Moose-Algos, we have the MalTarjan algorithm which is also the one used as a basis by the old DSM implementation of Jannik. You can see an example of it in:

   MooseGroup>>cyclesToAll: aBlockOrUnarySymbol

This one allows you to have something like: 

   aGroupOfClasses cyclesToAll: #clientClasses

and you will get Collections of cyclic groups.

- Once we have cyclic information, this has to appear on the diagram, and ideally it should be clickable to be able to dive into a cycle.

What do you think?

Cheers,

Doru

Hi!

Roassal has a new builder called RTDSM.

It is currently very basic. Here is an example:

dsm := RTDSM new.

dsm objects: RTShape withAllSubclasses.

dsm dependency: #dependentClasses.

produces the following:

Are there some algorithms to find an optimal ordering of the elements to display?

Here is a slightly bigger matrix
