[vwnc] [Fix 7.6] selectAll in Trippy

Christian Haider
Reinout said that I should publish this ...

VW 7.6 changes the behavior of Trippy: before one could press ctrl-a to select all instvars directly after Trippy opens. This does not work anymore.

The package [Tools-Trippy Fix76SelectAll] in the public store fixes this problem.

--- the package comment ---
Fix for VW 7.6 to use SelectAll (ctrl-a or toolbar button) directly after opening Trippy.

One of my work practices is to open an Inspector and press ctrl-a to select all instvars to get an overview of the object.
With the release 7.6 this does not work anymore. This patch fixes this bug.

The patch is an override of PartListAbstractInspector>>#postBuildWith: to set the focus to the #fieldList.
This might be better solved elsewhere... But it reduces the pain in almost all situations.

Note
What is the rational for sorting the instvars by name?
All instvars from all superclasses nicely sorted/scrambled by name? In my code, the position of instvars has a meaning (by importance) - why would I care about the name sort order.
This non-respect for the order of instvars is also shown in the class comment generator (around for some time).


cheers,
