This is why I suggested you take a look at the canvas widget[1] in whatever toolkit you chose. Also, take a look at this article[2]. I don't know how much you can apply to your code, but it might help you get started. 1. http://search.cpan.org/~srezic/Tk-804.028/pod/Canvas.pod 2. http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=179748 -- Chas.
