I'm just trying to create a simple array of rectangles .....
I've created one (called, with great imagination :), "R1") which has all
the correct characteristics, including a width and height of 8
But when I clone it to create my other shapes, the widths and heights
all come out to 120 instead of 8. I can fix this up (as I do in the
following code), but I don't understand why that would be necessary (or
what other properties might be different from what I expect).
repeat with y = 0 to 5
repeat with x = 0 to 4
put "_h01_" & x & y into tName
clone grc "R1"
set the name of it to tName
put the width of grc tName && the width of grc "R1" & CR
after field "F"
set the loc of grc tName to 100 + 20*x, 150 + 20*y
set the width of grc tName to 8
set the height of grc tName to 8
set the visible of grc tName to true
put the width of grc tName && the width of grc "R1" & CR
after field "F"
put "grc" && quote & tName & quote && "and" & space after
tGroupList
end repeat
end repeat
what shows up in the field is
120 8
8 8
120 8
8 8
120 8
8 8
120 8
8 8
etc.
I tried to create a tiny sample stack to show the problem, and initially
succeeded, but at some point as I tried minor variations, it started
working - and now I can't get it to fail again. The time it started
working was when I changed
clone invisible grc "R1"
to simply
clone grc "R1"
but changing that back didn't cause the problem to recur.
Any ideas ?
Thanks
