Hello,
Is there a way to move an object from one project into another project? For instance when I create a text object in the main world screen, I would like to be able to move it into a child object or the other way around.
Thank you.

Bring up the halo for the object you want to move to the child project and click the halo button that creates a tile representing the object (orange with rectangle, lower left). Drag the tile into the window representing the child project. On dropping you should get a "got it" message. Enter the child project, bring up the halo on the tile, hit the red "menu" button and select "hand me this object".

Cool. Thank you for your help. That works great, however, if I want to move the object into a parent object, I can't see the window representing the parent project within the child project (that I know of), and thus can't move the object. Is there a way to represent/see the window of the parent project inside the child project?
For the project I'm making I want to easily move morphs from one project to another. Maybe there should be an extra menu option to 'move to project...' under one of the halos for the main Squeak image?
I appreciate everyone's help. You surely can't say the Squeak community isn't a friendly and helpful bunch. :-)
