Answered my question about what was closing the boxes, thanks. :) I take it you were able to link the editor to three left column, and leave the preview in the right column. That feels strange, to me, for reasons I can't quite enunciate. Perhaps because the lengths can be so different, and there is no visual cue what part of the right column I'm currently modifying. I'm wanting something like the way cartographers indicate that a portion of the map is at a different resolution. Like
