Hello!

  I am using InterViews to develop some graphics programs, and have run into a
  problem.

  I am using the persistant-graphics, and when the user selects an area on the
  screen (Using Rubber Rectangles, etc)  I would like to be able to tell which
  of the graphics selected are Circles, or Lines, etc.

  Is there a nice way of telling what kind of graphic a graphic subtype really
  is?  Also, is there some way to possibly do this with the Reference class?
  I tried this, but have been running into problems so may not be doing it
  properly.

						     Thank you
