hi, is there something like a tree-panel available for use with mcclim? i saw that there is a class named tree-with-cross-edges in the experimental subfolder of the mcclim directory tree, but it doesnt seem to be useful (by now).
kind regards, alex

You actually do have in mind a treelist?

This is free-form tree visualisator, not a treelist.

I don't think that's what you want. The tree with cross-edges was developed for graph layouts where the graph is "mostly" a tree, but with cross-edges in some places. More precisely, it was developed for HTN plans, if that helps --- these are task decomposition trees (top level task is most abstract, lower levels are increasingly concrete) which have cross edges for temporal constraints. So you get things like
A decomposes into (has for children) B and C.
There is an additional edge from B to C to indicate that B must be performed before C.
If you are looking for something like that standard "tree of folders" widget that is so common in modern UIs, tree-with-cross-edges is not it.
You are right, BTW, that the t-w-c-e has not been maintained (at least not by me).

a standard "tree of folders" is exactly what i am searching for. i can read between your lines that there is no such thing?!

No, simply that I'm not aware of one. I have slipped away from using McCLIM in the past two or three years, so my knowledge is not current. Actually, I never fully grokked the notions of CLIM gadget, anyway...

Hi Alex,
you should write one and submit it ;-)
If written something similar once. It was kindof like a tree panel, based on stream-pane and presentations, but its not really ready to submit...
One probably should write a propper gadget.
