Description Bernd Hufmann CLA 2014-06-03 07:51:08 EDT 
The overview feature of TMF Sequence Diagram view doesn't work well on different recent platform versions. The Overview is an overlay to the scrollbar of the view and is activated by clicking the left mouse button on the below the scrollbar and keep the mouse button pressed.

For example:
The icon is not visible on Ubuntu 13.10 with overlay-scrollbar installed. When overlay-scrollbar is deactivated (LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0) the button is visible but the movement is hectic and the overview box is very narrow.

On Mac OS X 10.8, the button is not visible but there is a visible empty space that is clickable in its place. Clicking on it brings up the overview box which has a reasonable size but movement is still hectic.

Right now it's not working well and it needs to be improved.

Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS 64-bit: no Overview button visible that I can select, AFAIK.
