That's where the Inspector comes in: To debug, it is good to insert a self width inspect so that the inspector opens up and reveals what exactly the width is. OK, it is a number; then open the browser and look at the number's methods; or in the finder, try 2 . -2 in the examples... Pharo is excel

The misunderstanding her is based in the error message of the ui. when you write ^ - self width. and save, the UI writes this text into the code: ^ only numbers may be negated ->- self width. More helpful would have been something like: „only literals may be negated with - use negated instead“.

[Pharo-users] How do I get a halo on a specific UI object in Pharo 3/4?
