Re: [Help-smalltalk] How to use trees with OrderedCollections etc

[Nicolas Petton]

Hi,

Since it's a tree widget, it expects an item of the tree to know its
children. This part is done in #childrenBlock:

The thing is that you're OrderedCollection is not a tree, so objects of
the collection don't have  children. So I don't think a tree widget is
what you need, I would rather use a simple list in your case.

Is there a reason why you want to use a tree widget?

Cheers!

Nico
