[Pharo-users] WCAG color contrast rules - was: Re: These beautiful tooltips

One way to address this going forward is for theme developers to check their color selections against the e.g. Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/) Using a readily available tool: https://leaverou.github.io/contrast-ratio/ And/or one that makes suggestions of co

Re: [Pharo-users] Phobos and printing

I think Phobos is really good. It would be great to have Pharo 6 version. It's a pity about XULRunner being abandoned but all is not lost. There is a fork of Firefox that is committed to keeping XULRunner support - Pale Moon - https://www.palemoon.org/ Ken Pavel Krivanek-3 wrote > Hi Hilaire, >

Re: [Pharo-users] These beautiful tooltips

Indeed font is different, but this one can be changed programmatically, so can be fixed. I am not sure the same can be done for the background, it is more important to improve the contrast (for example yellow or even blue as it was some release ago). The Squeak tooltip is nice. Hilaire Le 30/01/

I don't buy this argument at all: tooltips were modified to become unreadable, there are responsibility behind to be taken by someone. FOSS is not an excuse for mere quality. In the past I have to fix the WaterTheme because a merge was poorly done at some point without obviously no visual testing

Re: [Pharo-users] Phobos and printing

The XULRunner was stopped to be supported in 2015. It can still run now but without security patches, support of the new OS versions etc. Mozilla is constantly decreasing capabilities of Firefox hacking. It is pity because there is no comparable alternative. Esteban is slowly working on GTK bindin

Hi Pavel, I am in prospective mode exploring alternative for desktop application vs SAAS application (in the later, the cost to maintain may be too high for only one technical guy, me). As I saw in the Phobos demo the Print feature, I just did a quick hack to test print over a html document. So

Hi, I already reported here the main problem of Fuel, no upward compatibility among Pharo version. It is a bit pathetic as it nullified a lot the interest of Fuel. Fuel in itself is really great, so it makes this situation even sadder. Phratch is another victim of this problem. Phratch users can'

Re: [Pharo-users] Phobos and printing

Hi Hilaire, I will look at it. Are you interested to have Phobos for Pharo 6? The main problem of Phobos is the stopped support of XULRunner by Mozilla without substitute so it's not good idea to use it for long-term projects. Cheers, -- Pavel 2017-01-29 12:34 GMT+01:00 Hilaire : > Hi Pavel, >

It does but I do not want to do that, I prefer the traditional way to click on my dock and that Pharo opens my image because I use only one image. I store my libraries using git and github. I do not even save the image unless I really have to store the live state and that rarely happens. On the o
