  • Hello Vala fans! I've been working on my outliner application (Hiero) and it's coming along nicely (see recent screenshots below). Because it's essentially a text editor with the primary difference being that it allows you to "fold" the text -- thus making it possible to effectively organize it -- I recently decided to add to it the functionality typically found in text editors that supports multiple instances. Though I found most of the logic that I needed in Elementary's Code text editor, some of the concepts were foreign to me and I wasn't clear on how to incorporate the logic into Hiero and so I created a demo app, Instances to help me make sense of the concepts and to get the code all working. So I found that doing this was really helpful and thinking that it might be of help to someone else looking to create a Vala app having a multi-tabbed UI supporting multiple instances, I uploaded it to GitHub (https://github.com/bblock/Instances). It's essentially a rudimentary text editor except that presently, you can't save your edits to disk... Over time I may add other fundamental logic (such as saving the edited text) to make the app more generally useful (as a demo), but for now the app demonstrates what it was intended to and more. Anyway, you may want to clone a copy of it, load it up in Builder and give it a whirl. Any feedback is more than welcome. Please let me know any and all improvements I could/should make to the app. I'm "old school" and can use all the help I can get, lol. BTW, thanks to the owner of this group for managing and maintaining it. I'm sure that I'm not alone here in appreciating the effort. ;)
