Noteworthy changes in version `0.0.1'
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
* 8th December 1999
|
|
|
|
* Save/Load 'nib' documents (binary archived data)
|
|
|
|
This works so far as it can be tested - but that's just
|
|
archives containing windows or panels so far.
|
|
|
|
* Load palettes
|
|
|
|
Loading of palettes works. You can load palettes from the
|
|
'Tools' menu. Gorm automatically loads all the palettes from
|
|
its Resources directory.
|
|
|
|
* Basic framework
|
|
|
|
So far, the app provides a basic framework that needs
|
|
fleshing out.
|
|
* It has a palettes manager object that allows you to
|
|
select a palette and drag items from the palette into
|
|
your document.
|
|
|
|
* It has a special per-document editor object, which keeps
|
|
track of a matrix of icons representing the top-level
|
|
objects in the document.
|
|
|
|
* It has an inspector manager class, which updates the
|
|
inspector panel when the selected object is changed by
|
|
an editor.
|
|
|
|
* It has special inspectors for handling an empty
|
|
selection or a multiple selection.
|
|
|
|
* Palettes
|
|
|
|
Four palettes (three of which are empty at present) are built
|
|
and installed in the apps Resources directory.
|
|
|
|
The Window palette is more fully fleshed out than the other
|
|
palettes. It permits windows and panels to be created in
|
|
Gorm. If provides the start of a window attributes inspector.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* 18 December 1999
|
|
|
|
* You can drag views from a palette into a window or panel.
|
|
|
|
* You can select views in a window by clicking on them,
|
|
shift-clicking (for multiple selection), or click-drag on the
|
|
window background to select views in a box.
|
|
|
|
* You can delete/cut/copy/paste views betwen windows.
|
|
|
|
* You can move views in a window by clicking on them and
|
|
dragging.
|
|
|
|
* You can resize views by clicking on their knobs and dragging.
|
|
|
|
* You can control-drag to mark source and destination views for
|
|
a connection.
|
|
|
|
* Next task - inspectors.
|
|
|
|
The connection inspector needs to be implemented to complete
|
|
the process of establishing connections. The size inspector
|
|
needs to be implemented to set autosizing parameters for a
|
|
view.
|
|
|
|
Once these are done, the object editor needs to be made to
|
|
support connections so that we can connect between objects
|
|
other than views, then we need to write a menu editor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* 22 December 1999
|
|
|
|
* Connections inspector is now working - but it needs some
|
|
effort to tidy it up.
|
|
|
|
* Class info (outlets and actions) is specified in
|
|
'ClassInformation.plist' and needs to be present so that the
|
|
app knows what outlets/actions an object has (and therefore
|
|
what connections can be made).
|
|
|
|
* The view size inspector is working - allowing you to set the
|
|
size of the subviews within a window.
|
|
|
|
* The attributes inspector for 'FilesOwner' is working, so you
|
|
can define the class of the files owner (it defaults to
|
|
NSApplication).
|
|
|
|
* There is a crude panel for setting the name of the selected
|
|
object.
|
|
|
|
* I've created a couple of new images and got rid of the two
|
|
NeXT images that were lurking in there.
|
|
|
|
* There is a Testing directory, with a GormTest application
|
|
that lets you load a nib for testing - it assumes that the
|
|
nib will set its FilesOwners delegate to point to a window,
|
|
and makes that window the key window ...
|
|
|
|
* 23 December 1999
|
|
|
|
Last work before christmas ...
|
|
|
|
Various bits of tidying up plus -
|
|
|
|
Added an evil hack of a generic attributes inspector ... This
|
|
looks through all the methods of the selected object to find those
|
|
taking a single argument and beginning with 'set'. It makes all
|
|
these setting methods (whose argument is a simple scalar type or
|
|
an object) available for you to invoke from the inspector panel.
|
|
|
|
This makes it possible to set pretty much any attribute of any
|
|
object, but you do need to have the GNUstep header files to hand,
|
|
so you can tell what numeric values to enter to achieve a desired
|
|
result.
