I'm trying to develop an overview+detail map, sort of like those you
see in games like Warcraft, starcraft. So basically i want to have a
thumbnail version of my map, and a rectangle that you can move around
on that thumbnail, and then the view of that rectangle is blown up and
shown in a separate pane.

JViewport seems to be the way to go, but I'm not entirely sure. Can
anyone point me in a helpful direction? Thanks
