Hello again.
I have studied your script and attempted to add a forth
image to the group. I managed to do it but for some reason
I have to click twice before the forth image goes into place?
Can someone have a look to see what I have done wrong?
Ideally I would like to add up to 6 images across the top and 6 images
below that can all be adjusted with two margin factor? if possible?
Maybe there is an easier way?
Thanks
Bidge

Well...after a lot of searching I managed to come up with a rather simple solution
Code: Select all
on mouseUp
set the top of img "W2" to the top of img "W1"
set the left of img "W2" to (the right of img "W1") + 10
set the top of img "W3" to the top of img "W2"
set the left of img "W3" to (the right of img "W2") + 10
set the left of img "W4" to the left of img "W1"
set the top of img "W4" to (the bottom of img "W1") + 10
set the left of img "W5" to the left of img "W2"
set the top of img "W5" to (the bottom of img "W2") + 10
set the left of img "W6" to the left of img "W3"
set the top of img "W6" to (the bottom of img "W3") + 10
end mouseUp
Cheers

Hi Bidge,
attempted to add a forth image to the group
There is no group in your stack and mousedown in cd script is not called because each img catch it
Maybe there is an easier way?
If you want move all controls of a group you maybe could move group instead controls of group

Thank you Jean-Marc.
I managed to get the result without using a group with your help.
Saving a text file that sets the locations, width etc of each image
is now my next hurdle: ( I posted in another thread earlier).

I made your script more flexible but more... complicated
Who is the laziest ?
Code: Select all
on mouseUp
doAlignImg 2,3,10,10 --pNbRow,pNbCol,pMargeH,pMargeV
end mouseUp
on doAlignImg pNbRow,pNbCol,pMargeH,pMargeV
put the height of img "W1" into tHeight
put tTlC into depTR
put pNbRow * pNbCol into tNbTot
put 10,10 into depTR
repeat with i = 1 to tNbTot
put "W" & i into tImg
set the topleft of img tImg to depTR
put the topright of img tImg into depTR
add pMargeH to item 1 of depTR
put i mod pNbCol into tReste
if tReste = 0 then
put 10 into item 1 of depTR
add (tHeight + pMargeV) to item 2 of depTR
next repeat
end if
wait 1 milliseconds
end repeat
end doAlignImg

Hi David,
when in the script editor, hit TAB from time to time, then you will get these nice indented scripts like the ones from Jean-Marc!
AND we can read them better.
Best

Thanks for the flowers.
I confess a big debt to some mentors of this forum
