Hi all,

I'm new here...and still very wet behind the ears...but I'd probably do 
a viewstack and put my own buttons up for navigation.  That way you can 
switch panes however you like.  I'm doing something similar right now 
for one of my projects.

Hope to meet many of you at Max...I'm the bald guy, I'm sure I'll be the 
only one.  :-)

-John
