Hi Tom:
Here's some group scaling code I've been meaning to post for a while now.
All it does is scale objects proportionally to a (locked) parent group. If
objects extend beyond the boundaries of the group, their positions and
sizes should stay intact. The script does NOT scale all the objects'
properties (that's another script that will come later). Maybe you can
make use of this.
command scaleGroup pGroup, pScale
put rect of pGroup into theGroupRect
put width of pGroup into W
put height of pGroup into H
set boundingRect of pGroup to rect of pGroup
repeat with N = 1 to number of controls of pGroup
put long id of control N of pGroup into theControl
put rect of theControl into theRect
put item 1 of theRect - item 1 of theGroupRect into L
put item 2 of theRect - item 2 of theGroupRect into T
put item 1 of theRect + round(width of theControl * pScale) into
item 3 of theRect
put item 2 of theRect + round(height of theControl * pScale) into
item 4 of theRect
set rect of theControl to theRect
set topLeft of theControl to \
item 1 of theGroupRect + round(L * pScale),item 2 of
theGroupRect + round(T * pScale)
end repeat
put margins of pGroup into theMargins
repeat with N = 1 to number of items of theMargins
put round (item N of theMargins * pScale) into item N of theMargins
end repeat
set margins of pGroup to theMargins
set boundingRect of pGroup to empty
set rect of pGroup to \
item 1 of theGroupRect,item 2 of theGroupRect,item 1 of
theGroupRect + round(W * pScale),item 2 of theGroupRect + round(H * pScale)
end scaleGroup
