> As you've discovered, Morph is really an abstract class. I'd suggest looking at RectangleLikeMorph as the most basic Morph you actually want to instantiate since it lets you set the color etc. Think of Morph as being to Morphic as Object is to Smalltalk: it's a foundation class you use it everywhere... just not directly.<br>
