Hi again,
Naming objects with numbers is not really a good idea: this can
confuse Rev... and the programmer :-)
But you have many ways to achieve the goal:
Name each image with a name followed by a numeric suffix: "img1'.
Then:
repeat with i = 1 to the number of imgs
if the threeD of img ("img" & i) then etc.
-- just an example :-)
end repeat
Set the ID of each image to build a series (images are the only
objects the ID of which you may change as you want):
Then:
repeat with i = ID1 to ID2
if the threeD of img ID i then etc.
end repeat
BTW, setting the filename of an image means to refer it to a file on
disk: according to the version of Rev you use, such a filename *must*
be a complete or a relative path.
The way you say it may be used with Rev 2.8 when images are in the
same folder as the stack that uses them.
