Dear palace EXPERTS!
I am not the best with scripts and I am having some
troubles with the following scripts. 1st: the problem
with the controllable animation script is it will not
work, ???? I tried it in a room and gave up and used
the basic animation and that works fine, but why not
this controllable?? 2nd: I am having troubles
figuring the x,x,y,y coordinates, I even asked someone
and looked it up on different sites, I have many
different windows and I want when you are over a
window to have a message say where that window goes
to, but the cooridinates will basically , but not
perfectly work for message 1 but not the others
I go to the top left of each window and use my pos
command for my mouse than the bottom right of the
window, & repeat, but when all is done the script
makes the messages appear way off from the windows,
except message 1 is almost right. I am a bit
frustrated, can anyone help??? Please??? & thank you?
