You probably know you're running into the default object size -- not sure why. Out of curiosity, you might see if the behavior occurs in a standalone, just to see if there's some gremlin in your stack. Also, in addition to the clone command, you could try using the template graphic + the create command.

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 ?
