OK, Here's a question: Why does this line of code work in a button but throw an error when run in the message box?
set the rect of control "Container" to ((the left of this card + 5),(the bottom of group "nav bar" + 5),(the right of this card - 5),(the top of group "toolbar" - 5)) Message execution error: Error description: value: error executing expression Hint: set the rect of control "Container" to ((the left of this card + 5),(the bottom of group "nav bar" + 5),(the right of this card - 5),(the top of group "toolbar" - 5)) In a button the graphic "Container" will resize to fit between the navbar and toolbar with a 5 pixel margin. What I was hoping to do is replace these lines of code with the above code. -- set the width of control "Container" to the width of this card -10 -- put (the top of group "toolbar" - 5) - (the bottom of group "nav bar" +5) into tContainerHeight -- set the height of control "Container" to tContainerHeight -- set the topLeft of control "Container" to 5,(the bottom of group "nav bar" +5) Thanks -- Tom McGrath III http://lazyriver.on-rev.com 3mcgr...@comcast.net _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
