Hi everyone,

is it possible to script in the property browser 'fit to content' (when I hover over it the tooltip just shows either width or height but no 'fit to content' command?)

Thanks for any help.

Regards,

Glenn

apologies, my question didn't make sense, what i meant to ask is it possible to script the property browser option 'fit to content'!

Thanks,

Glenn

I don't think you can do it that simply, in one line, but you can add up the widths of your objects for instance, and put that in a variable, then the height and put that in a variable, then something like (psuedo)~
set the left of this stack to ( the left of your left most object - 5)
set the width of this stack to (varW + 10)
set the height of this stack to (varH + 10)

Something like that, anyway.

Not sure, but I suspect this is not scripted but something the engine does "on the spot".

All the PI is doing is (I believe):

Ooops, sorry, I mixed that with the "exactfit" FULLSCREENMODE.

Yep, what Mark said!
