So, the substacks never get “used.” I tried opening a virgin version in LC 8.1.5(RC3) and it worked as expected. So, I guess this is a bug in the latest LC9 release.

Thanks. That fixed all those problems (LC9dp6). No idea what was going 
on with the text field.

So I can load a map, and I can use the slider to zoom. I can type input 
parameters into the centering fields and the box corners and reload the 
map to see the changes, and I can see the mouse lat/lon values moving 
when I move the mouse. Is anything else supposed to happen? Clicking on 
the map does nothing. I realize the docs say 'The rest is pretty 
self-explanatory', so maybe I've done it all.
