Jacque in the new branch newPortalNav2.. I changed that… all controls are
assigned initial numeric prefix
1_
2_
I stole that idea from your photo index (
and the IDE started to calm down or rather I think I found a WYSIWIG method.
e.g.Tall vertical scrolling group whose formatted Height might be 1500 px, but
is bound to a 680 tall screen view.
set the scroll of ThisGroup to 0
turn off edit selected controls
pointer → edit group
## change stuff.. stop editing
set the scroll of ThisGroup to 500 # now I'm somewhere in in the middle
edit group , stop editing
set the scroll of This group to 1200. # now the end of the group appears at
about 1/3 down the screen.
edit group # now comes "the trick"
while in edit group mode… don't copy and paste! option drag to make copies of
the last three objects (three objects in a series comprise a "row" but are not
grouped as such)
Stop editing. set the scroll of ThisGroup to 0
all good now. But will certainly adopt the double call, copy to group, then
set the loc as a second command.
@ Jonathan, I do have some tools box things that auto set all the rows with
properties and after doing the above, the run time scripts that use the
"formattedHeight" of the group, will just work out of the box, as you point
out, with the new additions at the end of the group
I'm about to launch into doing horizontal sliders now… I feel armed and ready!
Thanks for all the help on this list. I never, ever have gotten here without
everyone support!

Yeah, me too. In this case I happened to know that the controls all have
