General Intersect

[Malte Brill]

Hi Roger,

as saied before you would do this with a repeat structure.

eg:

repeat with i=1 to the number of buttons
   if the short name of btn i="targetButton" then next repeat
   if intersect(btn "targetButton", btn i) then
     --do stuff
   end if
end repeat

However, if it is a time critical script and you have many buttons to 
check, I suggest that you store the ID of all buttons you need to check 
in a custom property and use repeat for each from there:

Assuming you have stored the IDs in a customProperty called 
allButtonsToCheck, each ID on a seperate line:

repeat for each line theButtonToCheck in the allButtonsToCheck of this 
card
   if theButtonToCheck=the ID of button "targetButton" then next repeat
   if intersect(button "targetButton", button ID theButtonToCheck) then
     --do stuff
   end if
end repeat

All the best,

Malte
