<div id="ygrp-text"><p>Does Self support filing out composited morphs? I composited a number of morphs to create an irc chat UI, but I'm having troubles writing it out.<br>
<br>
I turned an instance of the morph into a prototype; added it to a module; setup the copy-down slots to Copydown parent: 'rowMorph', Copydown selector: 'copyRemoveAllMorphs'... and I think that's about it.<br>
<br>
The module files out and in without errors, but when I try and create an instance of the prototype I get an error message about 'rawMorphs' being missing. I can fix this by manually setting the irc morph's copy-down attributes (they don't seem to copy over as part of the file-in/out process) but then the original submorphs don't exist.<br>
<br>
Besides having trouble describing the problem - am I doing something wrong?<br>
