[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Displaying of maps

dank@calvin.usc.edu (Dan King) (01/24/91)

I'm trying to write an application that displays a map in a window.
The user can scroll around this map, click on various cells, drag
things about, etc.

What I'd like are some general pointers on the easiest way to do this.
I could use the list manager, but I wonder about its
performance/reliability/etc when confronted with a map composed of,
say, 200x200 8x8 pixel elements.  Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Um, you probably won't want to know this, but I have found MacApp is very good
at this sort of thing...
