hi Scott, That's what I was using and it didn't work consistently and when I use your method I get the same result for some reason.
I get the following error no matter which method I use. card "card id 1002": execution error at line n/a (Object: coordinate is not a point) near "0,1020" What's strange is that this was working consistently one day and then today I open up the stack and I get an error.
