PanoTools NG: Re: Interface experiment Ken Warner 2009-Jan-12 20:59:54
It works with Flash10 on a Windows2000 SP4; IE6.

But it doesn't carry the idea that the user is to click and drag.

I think " Click and hold mouse button down, drag in any direction to move the 
view.  " pretty much is the most you can do.  If they don't get that,
then either they don't speak English (quite possible) or it's a hopeless
effort.
