Thanks for your thoughts, Ross!

Heh.  I'll let someone else take this one.  :)  You just tried to treat
a project like a changeset, but now that you mention it the menus do
make it sound reasonable.

Ah, of course.  If your drawOn: method has a bug, the morphic system
will stop drawing your morph.  You need to fix the drawOn: method and
then do "start drawing again" from the grey halo handle.

This should be fixed in my tutorial...

Hmm, I wonder if turning "system window embed" turned off would cause
extra difficulties?  I need to check.  Frankly, SystemWindow's seem to
be un-morphic in a few ways.  Not wanting to embed properly is one of
them.

At any rate, whatever the cause is, you've certainly had an *authentic*
Morphic experience.  :)  It might have been nicer if it hadn't been
quite so soon, though!
