Hi,
I want to stack a few text boxes above each other with a permanent distance between them. Their content is dynamically created so the height of the text boxes will vary depending on how many rows they contain. I tried to use the text height expression but it doesn’t seem to work. I wrote something like this:
The Y position of text2 = text1.Y()+text1.Height()+20
That doesn’t seem to work when text1 has a line break (I have activated text wrap).
IDK. I tested it with wrap on and off and it seemed to work. I did have trouble in testing. I wanted to try to reposition the text with a keypress or by dragging/dropping the top object. It stopped working with the keyboard when I added the drop because even with the OR it checks the drag condition and unpicks the text object because it’s not being dragged. Weird. I assumed if the first condition was true then it wouldn’t check the other one. Adding pick all instances at the end fixed it.
What I’m saying is make sure a condition or a for event isn’t changing the pick status.
Thanks for all help,
I made the following and it works, even though it makes no sense. I have set a line break (wrapping) at 900. I guess that it only works if there are one or two lines but not three. Anyways, I won’t have three lines
