Steve,
The standard way to handle mouse events is to let a layer react to
them. Cary's email addresses different ways to handle that. You
probably need to add a MouseDelegator to the MapHandler, a MapMouseMode
or two (try the SelectMouseMode or NavMouseMode2), and a
MouseModeButtonPanel. They automatically hook up to the MapBean.
The layer has to say what mouse modes it want's to receive events from.
You might want to look at the crew example, the RouteLayer reacts to
mouse events on the map.
