Canvas/Panel merge

[Andy]

Background: Creating and applet/app to layout a 2D floorplan

Query: Anyone know of a way to merge a canvas/panel with another one

So far: Using Graphics2D I take a snapshot of both panes

Panel 1 is a grid of points
Panel 2 is the polygon drawing surface

I'm muddling my way through this one, but I'd like a few suggestions :-)

I've never done this, but have you considered using the "glass pane" of a
JComponent such as a JFrame?
