Thanks Esteban
I’ve made it work based on your example. As you said I didn’t need registerEvents. My original block just called a method that I used for trapping with the debugger to investigate how it worked. One question. Why can I not simply send borderColor: #red to the presenter rather than using the stylesheet method?

This is internal and is sent on initialize, when you create the presenter. precisely last week I make an example of what you are asking for: https://github.com/pharo-spec/Spec-QA/blob/main/qa005.md cheers!

I’ve done some more experimenting and it seems that registerEvents needs to be sent to make whenTextChangedDo: active. Makes sense but haven’t seen it documented anywhere.

I’ve been going through all the relevant classes and methods, even into Morphic, but so far I have not found a way to do it. I want to be able to identify when unaccepted changes have been made to the displayed text to ensure that a use does not leave a form without saving any input made. Regards Robert
