You need to do the following:
aMorph
changeBorderColor;
changed.
Display forceDisplayUpdate.
100 timesRepeat: [
(Delay forMilliseconds: 20) wait.
aMorph world doOneCycle].
aMorph
restoreBorderColor;
changed.
"The following line is optional, and probably not needed."
Display forceDisplayUpdate.
To force the morph to redraw, you need to send #changed to it. After that,
you need to force the redraw to the display. The delay as implemented above
is just a simpler way of keeping the UI running while you're pausing.
Later,
