Very simple thing... I have a large graphic in a small window. I want to be able to move the image around in the window with the grab command. Simple script ...
... The grab command alone is used for scrolling the window. If you want to move an object, you need to grab <objectdescriptor> For instance in the script of...
... Sorry, it didn't make myself clear. I DO want to scroll the window. Maybe I should pass the mouseDown message from the graphic and trap it in the card or...
Hi Group: I have created a pseudo 'ask list' function using a new window with fields and buttons. The main field contains a list of titles that the user can...
Hi Lowell, ... Turn your field into a List Field. Check it out how to script it in the SLG. With proper properties checked that should get you what you want....

Hi Joe, ... OK, I just got SC 4.6.3 running on my new(er) iMac. I think what you're seeing is a bug. I've created scrolling windows with the grab command in...
Oops! Correction ... ... Not exactly true. MouseDown alone doesn't cause it to slam back to top, but rather the instant I start to scroll. IOW, the mouseDown ...

P.S. I moved the grab script to the Window script as suggested in the SLG. The problem persists. I'll file a bug report, sending the project along. Ken N....

Hi again, ... So it still doesn't work. But the point is that the grab command should work straight out. I see you are using OS 10.4.11. Now I'm wondering if...
Howdy, I'm trying to find the font which TextEdit calls 'Plain text' because it's what needs to be used for creating .html documents. I think other things like...
