I've got a question that I'm sure has been on the minds of novice Mac programmers. I'm currently working on a project in Think C 4.0 using the TCL. My question: How do I implement MacDraw type environment? I have a finite amount of visual objects and I thought this would be a piece of cake to do using an Object Oriented Programming environment. But, I'm just not sure how to set everything up so that I can drag these objects around on the screen and keep track of all the associated data. I'm sure it has something to do with Views and Subviews and Clusters. I would appreciate and help, pointers, and/or source code. I'm relatively new to OOP and mac programming but I have a pretty good Handle (Pun intended) on Mac basics. Many thanks for any info. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ed Payne | USMail: Ed Payne Harris Corp.
