All, One of the joys of Etoys for me and my students has been that risks can be taken without harm; at the worst 'uninstall and re-install' has been our modus operandi. We have internet always available and I know that isn't true for everyone. Kathleen

Then you can drag from the Supplies Bin and put in another project. You will need to delete all the information in the flap, but this may be the preferred way to document for 4.0 as it avoids exposing the other items from CMD-, menu and shows folks how to use the Supplies Bin to copy objects to other projects. Thanks! I agree to describe the second way. I'm wondering how teachers use flaps with kids, #1 or #2? RitaCmd-comma is okay. It is the same as the "view source key" on the OLPC XO. Cmd-Shift-W offers the full "dangerous" Squeak menu, dangerous because it allows to save the image which is not a good idea unless you know what you're doing.
