Hello,
I have seen in other graphical application where the overview windows
thumbnail can be resized, which effectively zooms the "main" window. Is
this capability available either in the framework or an example? If not, is
there a plan to implement this?
Thank you,
Brett

While we don't do this, this is certainly possible. Shouldn't be too
difficult to implement.

Well, it seems we would want do derive from ScrollableThumbnail, but this is
a final class. Any suggestions on how to implement this? So I take it that
there is no plan to implement this into the gef framework?

Actually, you probably want Thumbnail. You can add a mouse listener and
detect drags and determine the scroll location and zoom amount.
If you think you still need to subclass ScrollableThumbnail, open a bug
report stating why you need to subclass it.
