I wholeheartedly agree! With resizeControl now firing on any change of the rect, it makes UI management of layouts based on nested groups much easier. TO me this is an example of an engine enhancement that made a big difference in reducing the burden of UI coding. All I was doing in my post was fantasizing about another engine enhancement to support relative coordinates instead of having to do your own getprop/setprop handlers in behaviors and similar setups. However, as much as I would like to see a 'relative' keyword for coordinates, there are many more features on RunRev's todo list I'd rather see done first. _______________________________________________ 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
