It’s been quite some time since I published parts 1 and 2 of this series, which turned out to be some of the most popular articles on this website. In part 1, I presented some ideas (and math) which either confused you or made a lot of sense to you if you happen to think and learn like I do. In part 2, I wrapped up the concepts into a class (called BasicViewPlus) to help you do the stuff I was talking about without actually thinking about it too hard.

The following displays a bunch of Flickr photos (by searching for Cloth) in a 2D Grid component, when you click and drag a photo it should feel like you are dragging a piece of cloth…
