Creating Objects in Groups
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??

wait for messages
Hi all I'm intrigued with the new "wait for messages" command in 2.3.2 beta. So far I can't figure out how it works. Can anyone enlighten me? Scott? By the way, I just read we can now relayer objects in groups through scripts. I haven't checked it out, but if it does what it says, a big thank you to Scott Co. Concerning the new list setup .. Kevin, are you there? I seem to be stuck in digest mode, and can only find the instructions on xworlds for the majordomo listserver. How do we change from digest to individual messages?

See if this gets you started: on mouseUp repeat with i = 1 to 100 put i wait for messages end repeat end mouseUp on mouseMove put x,y end mouseMove By the way, I just read we can now relayer objects in groups through scripts. I haven't checked it out, but if it does what it says, a big thank you to Scott Co. You need to set the relayerGroupedControls global to true - at which time grouped objects can also be moved into and out of groups by changing their layer. Concerning the new list setup ..

Oops - forgot to update that when we changed the software, its correct now.

Re: script editor
I dont know how many of you think similarly but i really have a problem with the script windows not showing up in the windows task bar. this brings up various issues or challenges to avoid the p word... Im forced to hide all my windows each time... or re-edit the group... or what's worse, my metaframe windows usually go bananas when you reduce them... if I reedit a script, will it overide a previously opened window and it's changes? in brief, im loosing major amounts of time just to edit scripts or find the window again... does anyone have any solutions for this? Sounds like the OS doesn't handle modeless windows in the task bar. Close the script editor window when you are done editing (so you don't have to "loose" it) or use a better OS. BTW, it looks like some kids in Russia just got hold of MS's codes (cracked into MS network) lately so chances are they fixed all that was wrong for such a long time with Windows ;-))) Why else would they do it?

Now the trick will be to convince all Windows users around the world to install the fixed system. [sigh] Never gonna happen...
