Hi Sakari Ruoho,

I believe you have to emulate your own pointer tool. Create tiny buttons and place them at the corners of the object you want to change. Allow the user to drag these buttons and change the size of the object while the buttons are dragged.

Why do you want to do this?

Best regards,

Mark Schonewille

Hiya Mark,

I should learn to state my problem better.. sorry for that.

The basic idea is that I want the user to be able to use the pointer tool where some objects can be resized and some can't. The objects which cannot be resizen are groups with objects in them. I call them components.

As I understand, while the pointer tool is chosen, the revolution don't send mouseDown messages, correct?

Now the grab command would do this for me, but then I would have to change the tool to browser and keep the pointer cursor in order to 'cheat' the user thinking that the tool is not changing. Maybe this is the only way to achieve this, but this is why I'm asking. Playing with cursors and tools gets the code much more messy, so I want to avoid this if possible.

Maybe the problem is not a programming problem, but application design one. Still lots to learn from Revolution I reckon :D
