Actually, I was thinking that for custom applications, the right way is to attach the shortcuts to the model of your morph/application instead of the morph.

Look at how the shortcuts are attached to the TextMorph.� They are attached to the SmalltalkEditor or TextEditor (instead of TextMorph), and TextMorph redefines #kmDispatcher to match & delegate to the model.

If you still need shortcuts attached to an specific instance, it should not be much difficult but I've no time right now to do it :(.

Hi,

Ahh, I thought that the latest version of Keymappings handles shortcuts per morph instance. It looks like it does not, and this is bad news for me :(.

I want to use them in the context of Glamour and for that I need to control the shortcuts of morph instances.

How difficult is it to get it working?

Cheers,
Doru
