Compound widgets via FTP & cw_imagemap
type: item
description: I am getting started with IDL widget programming, and I was wondering if any of the FTP sites have useful widget code. I looked them over maybe a year ago, and I didn't find a lot of widget stuff (but there was quite a lot to look through, I'm sure I could have missed it). It seems like the compound widgets are self-contained enough that they could be easily reused in other peoples' routines. More specifically, has anyone written an image map compound widget? Something like you see on WWW pages--display an image in a draw widget, define rectangular regions (optionally draw box outlines), and return an event telling which region the mouse was clicked in. If not, that will be my first project. I will post it if there is any interest (and if I actually get around to starting the project I am considering!) --Tim Slagle ---- Tim Slagle, slagle@boulder.colorado.edu, (303) 492-7916, FAX (303) 492-3674 University of Colorado, ECE Dept.
