There was a handler posted here not too long ago to increase or decrease the textsize of a field. It could be adapted to operate on chunks of a field. -- Peter Peter M. Brigham pmb...@gmail.com http://home.comcast.net/~pmbrig ---------------- on bumpTextSize theObject,theDirection -- increases the textsize of the entire text of any field, -- even if the field has varying textsizes already. -- theObject = a full object reference, eg, the long id -- theDirection = +1 or -1 -- thanks to Michael Doub and Malte Brill if theDirection is not among the items of "1,-1" then exit bumpTextSize put the htmlText of theObject into theHtml replace "size=""e with "size="&numtoChar(1500) in theHTML set the itemdel to numToChar(1500) if the number of items of theHTML<>1 then put 0 into itemCount repeat for each item theItem in theHTML add 1 to itemCount if itemCount=1 then put theItem into newHTML next repeat end if put 1 into counter put offset (">", theItem) into tClose put offset ("<" , theItem) into tOpen if tClose <> 0 then -- found it if tOpen <> 0 and tOpen > tClose then -- found "<" and after ">" this is ok repeat forever add 1 to counter if char counter of theItem=quote then exit repeat end repeat put char 1 to counter-1 of theItem into theSize put theSize + theDirection into theSize put theSize into char 1 to counter-1 of theItem end if end if put quote&theItem after newHTML end repeat set the htmlText of theObject to newHTML end if set the textSize of theObject to \ the effective textSize of theObject + theDirection end bumpTextSize _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
