Hello btw 🙂

"The derive function takes a color and computes a brighter or darker version of that color. The second parameter is the brightness offset, representing how much brighter or darker the derived color should be. Positive percentages indicate brighter colors and negative percentages indicate darker colors. A value of -100% means completely black, 0% means no change in brightness, and 100% means completely white."

I was working on a "theme", or trying to, and the derive seems like one way to use some consistent colors and themes...

@jchildress Derive in combination with a base color can get you very far!

Is the original java fx function named

derive

? Of not may I suggest

adjustBrightness

? Also, if the docs say 100%, then it should clearly state that it expects values

-1.0....1.0

just my two cents

derive is a css 3 function if I remember correctly

(I tend to stay away from css 😉 )

me too 🙂

@edvin note for the workspace documentation

when you only do

class MyApp: App(Workspace::class)

you do not get the screenshot you have in the documentation

@User uploaded a file:

I think derive is as simple as

fun Color.derive(ratio: Double) = if (ratio < 0.0) interpolate(Color.BLACK, -ratio) else interpolate(Color.WHITE, ratio)

The ladder function would be slightly more complicated, but I have code for my light software that does just that (with some slight modifications)

@ron I didn't set a minimum size for the Workspace, so with no docked view it will only take up the space needed by the buttons. I'll mention this in the guide and show how to configure an initial size!

@Ruckus Sweet! Would be great if you can add them when you have time.

I'll try to soon. I'm a bit busy at the moment, but I may get a chance before the end of day my time.

Oh, nice! I'll do another release soon because of the bug with Workspaces/Scopes.

@jonathan Sorry to bother, but if you have time for a simple question, is there any reason the

Stops.nomralize()

static methods are package private?

It’s not my API, so off hand I don’t know

Alright, thanks

@edvin The Problem with the not starting dmg based macOS apps was fixed after revision of the whole build process. Of course you were right, that when packaging the files something is not running properly. Now it is working. Thanks for your hints and your effort!

@lutz Good to hear, and thanks for getting back to me. I love solving puzzles 🙂

Did you guys see Xodus? It's written in Kotlin, so I bet the Kotlin API is pretty sweet: https://github.com/JetBrains/xodus

This is a test ignore

Done testing stop ignoring me

@ron I just added

disableSave()

and

disableRefresh()

so you don't need to provide a BooleanExpression to disable those.

nice

I started rewriting the UI with the workspace, still just not solve my problem 🙂 but at least I am doing somethign

Let me know if I can be of any help. I'm working with some funny master detail cases in the CRM. I really love how ViewModels, bindSelected and asyncItems fit together. The code looks very declarative, and the boilerplate is minimal.
