Squeak - Beginning Morphic

Hello. I am trying to learn Morphic. I wish to create some sort of canvas, drop
it into a movable, sizable, scrollable window, programmatically add say, a
CircleMorph to it, and allow the user to grab and move the circle with the
mouse.

I am having trouble figuring out the proper sort of canvas class that would be
best for adding/deleting/moving simple morphs around. Also, I am unsure how to
get that canvas into a usable application sort of window. Finally, how would I
allow the user to interact with the morphs on the canvas?

I have searched through wiki.squeak.org a bit, but I really can't figure out
the proper class for the canvas and how to manipulate it.

Thanks!

see FormCanvas. It is a bitmap drawing engine. See John Maloney's guide to
