Here's another way:
set the loc of grc "k1" to the loc of this cd
repeat with x = 2 to 4
set the topleft of grc ("K" & x) to the topright of grc ("k" & x-1)
set the left of grc ("k" & x) to the left of grc ("k" & x) - 1
end repeat
I find it easier to move the graphic one pixel in a second line of script than to mess around
with all those "item 1 of ..."s.

Hi there,
Another question today.
How do I shorten this script?
----
set the loc of grc "k1" to cardWidth/2,cardHeight/2
set the topleft of grc "k2" to (item 1 of topright of grc "k1" -1, item 2
of topright of grc "k1")
set the topleft of grc "k3" to (item 1 of topright of grc "k2" -1, item 2
of topright of grc "k2")
set the topleft of grc "k4" to (item 1 of topright of grc "k3" -1, item 2
of topright of grc "k3")
set the topleft of grc "k5" to (item 1 of topright of grc "k4" -1, item 2
of topright of grc "k4")
----
I know I should use 'repeat with' but I am stuck.
repeat with x = 2 to 4
put "k" & x into tName
set the topleft of grc tName to (item 1 of topright of. grc....?.... , item
2 of topright of grc ...?....)
end repeat
Any help is appreciated!
greetings,
William
