As Terry says, using position methods will work, but these are low-level methods. Using Commander (c) methods will be more convenient, provided you can make them do what you want them to do. As Terry notes, there is one (and I think only one) performance issue to be aware of: p.setDirty. p.v.setDirty is much faster. Use p.v.setDirty unless your @<file> nodes aren't being set dirty properly. One more note: It's really important to understand that c.redraw() only *requests* a redraw, to be done when the command completes. c.k.simulateCommand does actually complete the command, which is why it's not great to string several such calls together--you'll get multiple full redraws. If your script does need an immediate redraw, you can call c.redraw_now(). HTH. Edward -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
