Example:

See the example for function IG_GUI_pan_track_mouse().

Remarks:

The functionality of this API call has been upgraded and supported by the new function IG_GUI_pan_window_create_ex(). The reason that this new function has been created is that the old function does not allow you to set the Windows style of the pan window, or to specify the handle of the image window. In the interest of backward compatibility, we have left the old function in its original form and have retained support for it. If you have already used the old function in your code, it is not mandatory for you to modify your code, but it is recommended.

This function is called to create a GUI pan window. When the user moves the mouse around in the pan window, your application can pan the specified portion of the image, in the parent image window. See IG_GUI_pan_track_mouse().
