We are creating a Unidraw application using the InterViews 3.1beta3 release.
We are therefore relying heavily on the 2.6 backwards-compatibility mode
in 3.1.

The problem I have run into is creating a scrolling list of editable text
objects.  I need this list to appear in a dialog.  I have editable text
objects which are Interactors, and I am baffled by the problem of creating
a scrolling list of Interactors.

None of the Box objects can be attached to a scrollbar, and as far as I
can tell, none of the objects that can be attached to a scrollbar is really
suitable for a list of Interactors.

Has anybody solved this problem?  Is there an old 2.6 example that does this,
that would still be applicable with 3.1?  Does anyone have a better idea
for how to accomplish this?  

Any help would be appreciated.

-Arthur
