I'm not sure exactly what you mean by multiple projects being on-screen at once... I may have missed something.  Do you just mean the little project windows which come up after you do a "open/morphic project"?  You can't really interact with these unless you enter them, though.

I have to admit that I don't see Morphic inner worlds as being all that useful within a Morphic project... I never use them.  (I just happened to open one by accident and noticed the bug.)  Morphic inner worlds are very useful from within an MVC project, though, if you want to be able to edit Preferences, use Scamper, etc.

(By the way, I was trying to remember how to get to the SuperSwiki to look for some projects to open, and I used the FIND button on the project navigation bar.  It brought up the "Load A Project" window, which lists the SuperSwiki, but when I tried to expand the SuperSwiki, a debugger opened with "Fully qualified path expected" in DosFileDirectory>>setPathName:, where pathName = 'Bobs SuperSwiki'.  This is on Win2000.)
