Here's a questions for the NeXTstep programming experts out there:

I'm trying to design a controller similar to the one used in "Stealth", which
is used to control the pitch and roll of a plane. I'm not sure exactly
what tools to use for this. Should it be a custom view, or a subclass of
control ?

Secondly, how can you respond to the mousedragged events? ie. i want to
update my control, as well as continously update other views (ie. my
plane).

I think appkit.650 and appkit.651  might be useful, but they are not
included in the NeXTAnswers available via ftp.

Any help would be much appreciated,

thanks,
