Here's the clunky version:
I made a stack 1024x768 pixels and popped an image right in the middle
of it, and
put this in the script of the image:
on mouseDown
grab me
end mouseDown
on mouseStillDown
set the idleRate to 1
put the item 2 of the loc of me into LOK
if LOK > 0 then
set the width of me to LOK
set the height of me to LOK
end if
set the loc of me to 512, LOK
end mouseStillDown
on mouseUp
set the idleRate to 1
put the item 2 of the loc of me into LOK
if LOK > 0 then
set the width of me to LOK
set the height of me to LOK
end if
set the loc of me to 512, LOK
end mouseUp
certainly is achingly clunky on my P4, 3 GHz, 2 GB RAM running kinkified
Ubuntu.
AND, while I'm here, an opportunity for a faintly bi*chy note:
tried to upload the stack to RevOnline with no success
whatsoever.....................
