Instead of adding the same ScalarMap to two DisplayImpls,
construct two identical ScalarMaps and add each to only
one DisplayImpl. If they will have state changes, you can
keep them synced by adding ScalarMapListeners to them. But
be careful to avoid event loops between ScalarMapListeners
for two ScalarMaps - the easy way to do that is to never
call a method of a ScalarMap or Control that tries to set
it to a state that is identical to its current state.
Cheers,
Bill
