Thanks for the help. I'd also like to double click with the pointer tool to
bring up a custom palette. I'm sure Kevin would have done this.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Monte

You can get handles by:
select graphic 1
But the user can't resize the graphic because of the browse tool. You have
to:
choose pointer tool
to allow the user to resize the graphic.
You can make a group of the graphic and 8 little rectangles, which you show
if you want to get handles, and give them a script like this:
on mouseDown
repeat until the mouse is up
set the loc of me to the mouseLoc
set the rect of graphic "TheGraphic" to item 1 to 2 of the rect of
graphic "TheGraphic" & comma & the bottomRight of me
end repeat
end mouseDown
-- (Didn't test it, but something like this for the bottom-right handle.)
Give the graphic itself the script:
on mouseDown
grab this group -- the group will follow the pointer 'till mouseUp
end mouseDown
For other user interaction you can use
set the mouseLoc to tNewLoc -- not prefferable, and doesn't work on some
computers
drag from tStart to tFinish
