  text: Investigates the integration of an interactive constraint solver into an existing
    2D real-time animation environment in order to achieve a better observability,
    traceability and stability of the individual graphical objects. We present two
    approaches for assigning constraints to the objects. The first approach assigns
    constraints to the objects when they are created, keeping them stable during their
    entire life-time. The second approach dynamically changes constraints before the
    computation of each frame. The investigation is based on our practical experience
    with the complete visual programming language Pictorial Janus and the parallel
    constraint solver Parcon.
