We are working with InterViews 3.1 and Unidraw. I have an Editor with a big Viewer, 2 scroll bars and a zoomer in it. I need a panner that will have a transparent thumb and a copy of the big viewer under it. (this way the user can see which part of the big Viewer is visible). My approach was to construct a transparent panner made of an XYSlider and a amall Unidraw Viewer. I created to classes, a transparent panner, and a small Viewer. When I put them one next to the other (in an hbox) both of them work: The panner moves the picture and updates the size of the thumb on zooming, and the small viewer is updated by the editor following a change in the big viewer. However, when I put them one on top of the other (using overlay), the panner is not visible (although it moves the picture). Is my approach correct? Can I put a glyph over an interactor in an overlay? If not, how do I approach this problem? I will appreciate any suggestions. Any example that has any relation to this problem will be great. Thanks: Abshalom Aviv
