How to operate on groups using script

reelstuff · Post by **reelstuff** » Mon Feb 23, 2009 6:54 pm

I am attempting to see how to script a group so that when an object in that group is clicked, selected?

I can then obtain that objects fileName

Code: Select all

--get the fileName of selected image of group
put the fileName of img into fld "Field_who_am_I"

obviously my understanding of how to obtain the information from each images as it is clicked, is lacking.

thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi reelstuff, one way would be:

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
 put the short name of the target into fld "Field_who_am_I"
end mouseUp

Hope that's of help.
