I have a bookmorph that I've embedded a project into a page. I
inadvertently "collapsed" the project and now I can't see it! :-( Does anyone know how I can restore the project so i can see it? |
Hi, Brad,
Try using "make link to project..", found in the "new morph" submenu, to get a fresh link to your project.

Can you find the project through the other project navigating morphs?
Some will give you an outline of all projects still in the system. On 3/11/06,

You can bring it back into view by bringing up the halo on the book-page into which you'd embedded it, and from the "playfield options" submenu of the halo menu for the page, choose "round up strays" -- I think you'll find that it reappears. It's *possible* to embed a window into book-page, as you discovered, using the "embed" feature, but it's not recommended, because the morphic windowing logic mostly assumes that all windows, in both their collapsed and expanded forms, reside directly on the morphic desktop. Evidently in this case the collapse logic deciding where to position the collapsed-window lozenge was based on outer World considerations... a bug.
