You can tell a Workspace "start accepting dropped Morphs for reference". When 
you drop a Morph on a Workspace with this enabled, the Morph will be added to 
the bindings of the Workspace, and its name will be added to the text of the 
Workspace.

If you do this with both of your Morphs, you can then work with them in a 
Workspace.

There is also the scripting support.

MenuItemMorphs have a control menu item called set target. I don't know how 
it works, though. I've never been able to get it to work for me.

I don't understand.
