Loading an image into Tweak and other issues

Tapple Gao
Hi. I'm doing an experiment with the Tweak message/island model.
I'm looking to bring cool tools like Squeak, Tweak, and Croquet
into the hands of high-performance computing, so I am trying to
create a parallel raytracer using multiple Tweak islands to see
how it might work.

The only problem is, I am way new to Tweak. I have debugged through
the message model using a Tweak project window in Hedgehog, and
have a minimal grasp of it, but I cannot figure out how to
display the results of a raytrace in a CPlayer.

I thought I would try to find out by debugging through the
process to load an image from the file-system, but I had a
problem with the halos of the file import dialog, and so was
unable to debug the file import dialog:

1. World > open > Tweak Project Window
2. File > Import Object
3. Bring up the halos
4. Try clicking on the red halo
5. It disappears

So, How can I load an image into tweak? What is the issue with
the halos? To debug the halo problem, I tried halting in the
mouseDown event sender, but I just got lost in the maze of
signals that a mouseDown event generates.

Any help?

By the way, my code is at
