Re: [Edu-sig] Reeborg update

Actual world where program can be run: http://reeborg.ca/world.html
It looks very interesting. One thing -- not sure how important this is with most people using larger screens these days -- I went there in a recent chrome on a laptop with a fairly small screen and there are some rendering issues that make some of the controls unusable. Once I switched over to my desktop, the issues were not apparent. I am definitely going to have some students give your tutorials a try. Thanks!

Hi,
I went there in a recent chrome on a laptop with a fairly small screen and there are some rendering issues that make some of the controls unusable.
I noticed the same with Nexus 7 (android) and firefox. On the desktop Ctrl + - usually makes things smaller and thus fit onto the screen (esp. editor right next to the world, so the controls below the world are visible), but on the android tablet that didn't help. These tablets are just to small for all the information and even firefox is different compared to its desktop version. Christian

From the beginning, my thinking was that anyone interested in doing some programming was going to use either a deskop or laptop with proper keyboard, etc., and thus a reasonably sized screen.
Should I review this basic hypothesis? If so, does anyone have an idea as to what minimum screen size I should be aiming to support? I'm not ever planning to target tiny screens for smartphones and the like ... but if only relatively small adjustements are needed to support "typical" tablets, I could look into it. André
