[Newbies] Generating subMorphs with relative coordinates

[Nicola Mingotti]

Hi Christian,

Try this snippet, I think it is self explanatory.

-----------
tr := TransformMorph new.
tr openInWorld.
tr bounds: (100 at 100 corner: 300 at 300).

c1 := CircleMorph new.
tr addMorph: c1.
c1 position." 0 at 0"
c1 center: 0 at 0.
-----------

bye
Nicola
