7-22) The control panel contains two panel items: a text item to type in panel item names and
a choice item providing the different item types that may be created. The destination panel is
where newly created panel items are placed. It is boxed. After items are created, you may
move them around the destination panel using the MENU mouse button. Moving the item off
the destination panel deletes the item.
Figure 7-22. Output of item_move.c in use
The code for item_move.c uses the interpose function, notify_inter-
pose_event_func(), to handle events within the destination panel. This interferes with
the normal event processing for the destination panel; ...
