We are working on an X-based UIMS and would like to know if anyone can point
us to information on how to do the following:
* Select an arbitrary graphic object which is not a window ala
MacDraft/SuperPaint.
* Manage a stacking order for graphic objects much like X maintains
a stacking order for its windows.
I assume that there are algorithms already available to do this sort of
thing, I'm just not sure where they are. If anyone has written X-code to do
these things, permission to reuse that code would be appreciated. Perhaps an
X11-GKS to level 2b would be a good starting point.
