R: [Geotools-gt2-users] Interactive Lite Renderer

[<pao...@am...>]

It would be great to have a new working version of StyledMapPane!!!
I thank you very much in advance if you're going to implement it!!!

What I dont't like of the existing one is that it has too much
functionalities already active and that it's not so immediate to
personalize it.
You already have a menu with the usual functions and you can=20
modify it if you like, but it needs too much coding.
I'd prefer to have the various functionalities and their UI divided up=20
in a few more classes, so to be able to mix and match only the one
needed.
Maybe that would make it over-complex, so don't waste too much time.
Even if it comes out like it is now, it would be VERY useful anyway!!!

Bye
Paolo Rizzi
