The Submorphs/Labelmorphs that I want to change the fonts, etc for, is
the text that make up the "Bank Account" tutorial in the Demo snap. SO
what I should be looking for (and mining upwards) is some item in the
Labelmorphs "Traits" that deals with "fonts", in order to get an
immediate change? Afterwards, i would save the Demo snap to make the
changes permanent?

BTW, I did apply the MorphicFacelift code! However, that seemed to
have changed only the "system" menus, and not the contents (of the
Demo for example). Thanks for your input!
