I was successfull in making Designer start in Pharo 3.0 30659, with some help from Tobias Pape. The following changes were needed (compared to what was needed for Pharo 2.0) - floodfill2:at: is gone from Form. I replaced it with a simple fillColor: That it had gone missing was not clear from issue 11570 - outsetBy: is deprecated and replaced by expandBy: in a lot of places - (some symbol or string or something else, #:) asSymbol is replaced by ... asMutator in a lot of places. - TranslucentColor is replaced by Color TextMorph handleInteraction:forEvent: no longer exists, but gives a different problem in Pharo 2 than in 3 just replacing it by handleInteraction: does not work. That makes a mess of the selection in theUiTextLineMorphs in the object inspector. Stephan
