I'm using Etoys and I want to change and objects "holder" What is the squeak code to embed it in a different object?

You have to detach the morph from its existing owner and then add it to the destination container. See grabMorph:from and attachMorph: methods for examples.

Also see senders of addMorph: and its variants addMorphFront:, addMorphBack: for more examples on how to embed morphs.

A Holder is essentially a PasteUpMorph with some options turned on. Other variants are Playfield, PartsBin etc.
