If you don't need very specific control over the visuals of the UI I would highly recommend using Spec instead of Morphic.
As for search, you can do something like ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ arr := #('Pharo' 'Squeak' 'VisualWorks'). c := EntryCompletion new dataSourceBlock: [ :currText | arr ]; filterBlock: [:currApplicant :currText | currApplicant includesSubstring: currText ]. m := TextInputFieldModel new. m entryCompletion: c. m openWithSpec ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you can describe in greater detail what exactly are you trying to achieve perhaps I would be able to give better hints.
