There is no way to know how many numbers the user wants to test on before runtime. I've somewhat figured out how to create controls within an array at runtime, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to position those controls once created. The controls would consist of 2 StaticText boxes (one for each operator of the funtion) and one TextField for the user to type the answer. After reading around the forums it looks like I might be out of luck, but I figured I'd ask anyway. Any idea how to dynamically move controls at runtime? Thanks!

You'll know the height of each control so you'll be able to do the math for the offset to ensure decent/proper spacing. Code:myCaptions(1).Top = 20 myCaptions(1).Left = 20 myCaptions(2).top = mycaptions(1).Top + myCaptions(1).Height + 10 mycaptions(2).left = mcaptions(1).left Top Display posts from previous: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by AuthorPost timeSubject AscendingDescending Page 1 of 1 [ 2 posts ] -- Over 1500 classes with 29000 functions in one REALbasic plug-in collection.
