[beginner] x,y coordinates in LiveCode

Hi. Long time...


I do not get all the mails from the use-list. And never my own, though I used to.


But anyway, this works for me in the card script. Why wouldn't it?

You may notice by now the similarity between your suggestion and what I 
suggested. One slight difference is that I tested mine first, and discovered 
that mousewithin doesn’t work as a card script, at least not on its own. Reading 
the dictionary it seems that a mousewithin handler has to be inside the object 
itself.
