Looking for an XML code to movie several elements

Recommended Posts

Hi,This is the problem, I'd like to get a better solution for:I'm building a gauge with dozens of elements (rectangles) that I need to get moved (rotate / shift) all the same. At the moment I use a code, that each of these elements has its own shift instruction.This works quite well, but I guess I will need 30 or 40 of these elements, which I think will end in a pretty long code...Here is a (simplified) example with three elements only: (A:Attitude indicator pitch degrees,degrees)(A:Attitude indicator pitch degrees,degrees)(A:Attitude indicator pitch degrees,degrees) Is there a possibility to use that SHIFT instruction for all three elements only once? How do I need to group the single elements (rectangles) to get this working?Is there anyone out there to shed some light on this?Thanks in advance!herbie

Hi,Like Jan's perfect example shows, you can put those 30-40 elements into a parent element and then apply the effect desired to this one (ie rotate, shift,etc).pseudocode: code ... (*this will make Element-parent and ALL of its childs elements to shift at once *) -parent> Tom

I thought I tried that solution without success...But I'll give it one more try, I obviously made something wrong...Thanks a lot, both of you!!!Herbie
