Morph Window -> Class? (was: error loading .pr file)

Thanks for your reply to my last message.  Now I have a follow-up
question.

If I want to save my project as a .cs file, then I will have to convert
my gui window (just a systemWindow with some buttons and textMorphs)
into a proper class that shows up in the browser, correct?  That is, my
window was not coded, but put together interactively by dragging
supplies out and using the viewer to attach scripts.  Is there a way to
convert the final product into a code format that can be exported in the
.cs file?

In VisualWorks (which I am also looking at but have not worked with at
all) there seems to be a way to do this: the InstallOnClass utility.  Is
there something comparable in Squeak?

Exist a kind of Morph to code, what sometimes lets you export code only.

Drag and drop the attached morph into your Squeak.

Open a Transcript whit World menu or via flaps.

Via halo, open a Inspector of the morph.
In lower pane type :
Transcript show: self constructorString  "for seeing what is the code of the
morph."

You should give:

    yourself))

Before you ask, the transcript button need be "reinitialized" when go to new
image.
For doing that, via halo select the button (you need two clicks, one for the
AlignmentMorph  and the second for the button, this way you could see Morphs
inside Morphs and act via Inspector)
In the code pane of Inspector type select target as you see in pict.
Type again Transcript and do alt s or command s (for aceppting the change).
Presto, now you have the button working .

I hope you know now what could export only a morph and not a complete .pr
....

Next question ? :=)

Cheers

Edgar
