I'm trying to create objects in a vertical scrolling group using
scripting. I'm attempting to reproduce behaviour somewhat like a
browser, so that a series of constant sized images layout in a set of
rows and columns (a bit like laying playing cards). Because there
are a variable number of images, I need these to be created in a
group with a vertical scroll bar, so the user can scroll down to
those images off screen.
What's working OK - I can create these images within a group and name
them uniquely. Also, I seem to be able to generate the right
sequence of topLeft coordinates for positioning of each image in a
grid pattern.
What's NOT working - even though the topLeft coordinates look
sensible, the images are being located all over the place! Clearly,
my topLeft coordinates are not correct in these circumstances, even
though they look correct as if I were placing the images on a large
static piece of paper.
Can anyone explain how the coordinates work within a group that can scroll??
Thanks
Peter
