Lists all controls of a card ?

[xApple]

I've gone thru the whole dictonary of transcript terms searching for something that would simply list all the controls present on a given card... to no avail.. any simple way of doing this ?

Help greatly appriciated.

My dream:

Code: Select all

put the controls of card 1 into myObjects
repeat with x = 1 to the number of lines of my myObjects
set the someProp of (line x of myObjects) to someValue
end repeat

May your wildest dreams come true

Code: Select all

repeat with x= 1 to (the number of controls of this card)
 put the long id of control x of this card into tCtlRef
 set the iAmAControlOfThisCard of tCltRef to true
 if word 1 of tCtlRef is "field" then set the fontsize of tCtlRef to 16
end repeat

(typed on the fly and untested... feel free to correct me)

nice, nice... using the numerical index of every object, of course !
This varies depending on the layer I recall...

Thanks a lot ! Have a nice sunday.

I like using a property: put the objects of this card, put the objectIDs of this card.

getProp objects
repeat with x = 1 to number of controls of the target
put the name of control x of the target & return after myList
end repeat
sort myList
return myList
end objects

getProp objectIDs
repeat with x = 1 to number of controls of the target
put the id of control x of the target & return after myList
end repeat
sort myList
return myList
end objectIDs

Best,

Mark
