drawing with the "drag" command

I'm trying to script the drawing of a hexmap, with each hex having an
individual set of properties. This is easy to do by manually drawing
each hex, but I'm having trouble automating this process because of a
weird quirk of the drag command.
Whenever I use the drag command with a drawing tool (such as regular
polygon), Revolution creates a graphic which appears to be the
expected size, but in fact is part of a bigger graphic which always
ends up being the size of the entire card window.
Here is an example script which gives this result:
on drawHexTest
set the polysides to 6
choose regular polygon
drag from "50,50" to "50,80"
end drawHexTest
If I iterate the drag command, each subsequent graphic is within the
same "canvas" and has the very same id. How can I draw individualized
graphic objects?
Thanks!
