Hello Hernan,

thanks for replying!

SystemWindow>>>addMorph:fullFrame: change the colors of the added morph

I made a beautiful newbie mistake here. Wanted to watch it and put
self halt into this method. The debugger did not open :-))).

Squeak stayed responsive so I could back out of it. If I continue like
this I will soon learn about the change sorter :-)

This is not true in 3.6. My buttons stay green after this.

I'll do this later, learning goes in small steps. In 3.6 there is no
morph in the owners chain between the button and the systemWindow.
If you care to please look at my reply to Joern for more details.
