Is there anyway to create a pop up window to display an image? I have a picture of an instrument and id like it so that when the user moves their mouse over a particular part of the instrument it will open a pop up window showing a more detailed picture. So right now i have a flute and, for example, i would like it so that when the user moves their mouse over the mouthpiece a picture pops up showing the mouthpiece in more detail.

I've tried experimenting with mousestate and mapping the horizontal and vertical values to trigger the pcontrol object but these values change when you move the patcher window (which is no good!)

maybe you should give lcd a try , you can import/display images,

qucik and dirty example :

:) fantastic! thanks a lot for your help very much appreciated. i'll experiment with this.

i dont have the time to patch it but have a look at jasch?s "posit" 

object and combine it with mousestate to get position data independent 

from the patcherwindow position and "thispatcher" to define your pop up

Seem to be having a problem loading my own images to be displayed in lcd. Is it just a matter of replacing the file name in the readpict message box and making sure that the file is in Max's search path? Im doing that and it does noting...
