/**
 * <p><code>TranslatedSequencePanel</code> is a panel that displays a
 * Sequence. Its features are that it will always draw at low pixel
 * coordinates when using Java2D to render very long sequences and it
 * is quite fast (approximately 8x faster than
 * <code>SequencePanel</code></p>.
 *
 * <p>A <code>TranslatedSequencePanel</code> can either display the
 * sequence from left-to-right (HORIZONTAL) or from top-to-bottom
 * (VERTICAL). It has an associated scale which is the number of
 * pixels per symbol and a translation which is the number of
 * <code>Symbol</code>s to skip before rendering starts. In order to
 * produce a scrolling effect, the <code>setSymbolTranslation</code>
 * method may be hooked up to an <code>Adjustable</code> such as
 * <code>JScrollBar</code> or to an event listener.</p>
 *
 * <p>The exact number of <code>Symbol</code>s rendered depends on the
 * width of the panel and the scale. Resizing the panel will cause the
 * number of <code>Symbol</code>s rendered to change accordingly.</p>
 *
 * <p>The panel will fill its background to the <code>Color</code>
 * defined by the <code>setBackground()</code> method provided that it
 * has been defined as opaque using <code>setOpaque()</code>.</p>
 *
 * <p>The change event handling code is based on the original panel
 * and other BioJava components by Matthew and Thomas.</p>
