morpho - general
Description
In short, have Morpho follow the 'Multiple Document Interface' (Thanks for the
metaphor, Mr. Higgins!), in which successive Datapackages inhabit separate,
closable 'documents' that are children of a parent 'master control window'.
Users have become accustomed to having this conceptual 'anchor' when using
a GUI-based software package.....

Comments for Bug 1280:
Reported in morpho-feedback-20040122.doc in /doc/devs/ by Andrea Chadden
After finishing the last screen of the Datapackage Wizard, the user should be
returned to the ‘Main Morpho (blue) Screen’, which appears to be the central
control screen for Morpho activities, or at least see some button on the new
Datapackage screen that leads the user back there
Code has been changed so that the intial blue startup screen does NOT disappear
when another frame is created. Now the startup screen remains until closed by
the user.
This is not a Multiple Document Interface is the usual sense, but still gives
the user access to the intial screen.
Initial Morpho screen not closed as it was before.
