I think you left out a super drawOn: aCanvas in� your method. Interesting to hear if this works:
���
drawOn: aCanvas
   aCanvas borderWidth:10; borderColor: Color green.
   super drawOn: aCanvas.
The rest should work AFAICS, but it could be simplified.
(I haven't Pharo available so that I can test it)

Hi,
I have the following question:
I want to draw a bouncing ball.
First thing I do is create a class:

EllipseMorph subclass: #Ball
	instanceVariableNames: 'position'
	classVariableNames: ''
	category: 'PBE-BouncingBall'


Then an initialization method that mostly do a super initialize.
Then the drawOn:  
  
drawOn: aCanvas
	aCanvas borderWidth:10; borderColor: Color green.


And finally a position method:

position: aPoint
	super position: aPoint.

position
	^ position.


Finally in a Playground I do:

| aBall |

aBall := Ball new.
aBall position: ( 10@10 ).
aBall openInWorld.

But I get a red box with two crossing yellow lines.
What I'm missing?

Thanks in advance.
Nacho
