An overview of the SCO Panner window manager

The SCO OpenServer® Panner(TM) window manager allows you to use your screen to view different aspects of a much larger workspace than can be displayed at one time. You can organize that workspace to suit your needs. In addition, because you have more space available, your screen becomes less cluttered.

For example, you can control the SCO Panner window manager by using a feature known as the ``panner'', which contains a map of your entire workspace, divided by a grid into a number of rectangular regions. These regions serve as work areas. Also provided is a ``viewfinder'', which allows you to navigate around the workspace and change your view area.

For more information, see the online help book, Using SCO Panner.
