Hello all,
I am trying to create a set of controls that is made up of a few fields and
an image. I am doing this inside of another group that is set up to manage
the scrolling. I must be doing something wrong as any time I go to edit the
image a new image is created the same size as the card.
Here is the jist of my script where i is the name of the control being
created passed in from an outer loop:
create group i in group "+scroll"
create field "Name" in group i
set the width of it to 80
set the height of it to 16
set the topleft of it to the topleft of graphic "scrollarea"
set the opaque of it to false
set the showborder of it to false
put i & ":" into field "Name" of group i
set the textstyle of it to "bold"
set the textalign of it to "left"
create field "Skill" in group i
set the width of it to 80
set the height of it to 16
set the topleft of it to the bottomleft of field "Name"
set the opaque of it to false
set the showborder of it to false
set the textalign of it to "right"
create image i in group i
set the showborder of it to true
set the width of it to (MonthCount * monthwidth)
set the height of it to (SkillCount * monthheight)
set the topleft of it to the topright of field "Name" of group i
-- everything works fine up to here
set the itemdel to comma
put the topleft of it into xy
put item 1 of the topleft of it + 1 into tr_x
put item 2 of the topleft of it + 1 into tr_y
choose rectangle tool
set the filled to true
set the penColor to "white"
select image i of group i
drag from tr_x,tr_y to tr_x+monthwidth,tr_y+monthheight
-- this drag seems to be the one creating the unwanted image
set the filled to false
set the penColor to "black"
drag from trx,try to trx+monthwidth,try+monthheight
Can someone explain to me how to go about editing a specific image and not
having this overlay image being created?
Thanks
Mike
