NASA World Wind Java Swing Integration 2

I had a few questions from my last video about how tightly integrated the Swing Annotations were within the application. I added this video to answer those questions and to show off a few features such as Ordered Swing Annotations and Overlap Hiding. The Ordered Swing Annotations work the same as the OrderedRenderables in World Wind Java, displaying the closest annotations on top. Overlap Hiding is a feature I added to hide any portions of annotations that are covered by other annotations. You can still see the earth through the annotations, however, you cannot see the overlapped annotations. This just cleans things up a bit and makes the annotations easier to read. It can easily be toggled on or off as seen near the end of the video.
