[kepler-users] I need help making modular actors please.

[Edward A. Lee]

Changes to base classes should propagate to instances
or subclasses, unless the instances or subclasses override the base
classes somehow. perhaps that is what is happening? If you select
"Open instance" instead of "Open actor" you can see what is an
override vs. what is inherited from the base class.

An example would help...
