So am I, but panel isn't moved to a scene graph yet. Now that I think about it though, he is still going to need the offsets that the model doesn't know about to implement the mouse action. So never mind. That information is and will be in the property tree. Sometime this week I should be ready to set up the property tree for view data in it's more or less final form.
