Proportional layout

Here I show the proportional layout mechanisms of SystemWindow. This is based on the Layout section of the Pharo CollaborActive book written with the help of Hilaire Fernandes (more to come).

You will also learn to use Script Manager, an enhanced Workspace written by Joseph Pelrine.

I use Pharo 1.1-11357 beta.

The final code:

window := SystemWindow labelled: 'Layout'.

redMorph := Morph new.
window 
 addMorph: redMorph
 fullFrame: (LayoutFrame 
  fractions: (0@0 corner: 1@1)
  offsets: (100@0 corner: 0@50 negated)).
redMorph color: Color red.


greenMorph := Morph new.
window 
 addMorph: greenMorph
 fullFrame: (LayoutFrame 
  fractions: (0@0 corner: 0@1)
  offsets: (0@0 corner: 100@50 negated)).
greenMorph color: Color green.

yellowMorph := Morph new.
window 
 addMorph: yellowMorph
 fullFrame: (LayoutFrame 
  fractions: (0@1 corner: 1@1)
  offsets: (0@50 negated corner: 0@0)).
yellowMorph color: Color yellow.
