Hi Celal,

Better to know is what do you want to do. The accessor cursorWrapped: work very well and brings the curosor 
of the TextMorph to the right position. The little example below is how I try to get the answer on your question.

"initialize the TextMorph"
karl := TextMorph new openInWorld. 
karl contents: 'here comes the mouse'.

"Show where the cursor is"
Transcript show: karl cursor;cr.
"result ==1"

"change the position of the cursor"
karl cursorWrapped: 6.

"Show where the cursor is"
Transcript show: karl cursor.
"result == 6"

Cheers,
  Frank
