Hi Frank, I think I'm getting the meaning of cursor wrong. So basicly what I want to do is the following. I want to set the caret position in the textmorph using some smalltalk code instead of using the mouse. As an example, assume I have the following text in a textmorph and | is the place my caret is currently at: smallt|alk Now I want to move the caret to another place like: sm|alltalk but not by clicking there, using some code instead. Is this possible at all? Do I need to imitate firing an event (something like mouse down event)? Thanks for any help. - Celal Ziftci ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------- > Hi Celal, > Better to know is what do you want to do.
