[Newbies] MVC freezes

Open MVC project, and click into it. Open Workspace, and enter and select a line of code. How do I _do it_? Center button does not work, and ctl-click locks up Squeak. I have a three-button wheel mouse on a generic PC. 3- button mouse mapping is enabled. I'm trying to learn MVC, not Morphic.

Thanks. Alt-d does it. I guess there's no mouse button for this in MVC? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/MVC-freezes-tf3018243.html#a8383177 Sent from the Squeak - Beginners mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Beginners

Re: [Newbies] More questions on beginner's lesson

Forging on ahead, I tried lesson #2. This seems to be a very important lesson: Create two boxes, put some text in one, push a button and transfer it over to the other. Several useful concepts here. But the tutorial doesn't work for me. I can't make sense out of what is supposed to be dragged

[Newbies] Bugging out of Squeak

Let's say you're totally lost, and want to exit Squeak without saving anything from the mess you've just made. Wouldn't you click World quit, then answer 'No' to 'Save changes before quitting'? My Squeak 3.9g still saves everything for next session. -- View this message in context:

Re: [Newbies] Bugging out of Squeak

It's been happening pretty consistently with my 3.9g-7058-061020. But I guess this is a minor aggravation that I should deal with by upgrading (which seems to have its own problems) or switching to a different image. -- View this message in context:

Re: [Newbies] Some sample code to help understand Morphic applications
