Morphic relative placement?

I'm building a schematic editor where I need to control the relative
placement of a submorph inside its owner morph. In the view, I have a
morph representing a circuit. Each CircuitMorph has arbitrarily many
child CircuitMorphs. In the model, each Circuit stores a fixed point
position relative to it's parent Circuit's upper left corner.
I tried to render the view doing the naive thing; each CircuitMorph
does: "self position: model position". The problem is that "Morph >>
position:" seems to be setting the *absolute* position within the world
rather than position relative to the owner. How do I set a position
relative to the owner?
Thanks for helping a Morphic newbie.
