Hi Andre,
I think the alignment code is probably very similar to what you were already considering, but you only need one loop. Try something like this which is a script I used a few days ago to make a group containing 64 fields in an 8 x 8 grid. Each field was 120 wide and 54 high with the top row of fields starting at pixel 44.
on mouseUp
lock screen
start editing grp "DataFields"
repeat with x = 1 to 64
put "Slot" & x into tF
if there is not a field tF then
create fld tF
-- set properties of the field if required
end if
put ((x - 1) div 8) * 120 into tX
put (((x - 1) mod 8) * 54) + 44 into tY
set the topLeft of fld tF to (tX & comma & tY)
end repeat
stop editing
beep
end mouseUpCheers, Sarah [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.troz.net/Rev/

Hi Folks,
I want to align buttons by code. I create them in openStack handler and would like Revolution to spread them accross the card like for example a grid. Is there a clever way to do it, or should I use old school method of two loops one setting X axis and the other setting Y axis? Since we can use the property inspector to align objects, I assume that there's some clever way to replicate that by code...
