I think that if you use StringMorph it will work. We should accept that Pharo is moving and that some old abstractions were not good. :) You do not want something doing constant polling in the UI. Stef Le 29/6/15 21:17, Volkert a écrit : I am trying to load the old chess game from Squeak [1]

[Pharo-users] Chess Game / UpdatingStringMorph

I am trying to load the old chess game from Squeak [1] into Pharo 4.0. The game depends on the class "UpdatingStringMorph", but this is not part of Pharo. What happened to it? Was it renamed? BW, Volkert [1] http://map.squeak.org/package/cb19b6f1-e371-47b2-b814-4bad079d0fbc
