"script size thing 20 28, script move thing 100 0"

it works great, but it does not work when it is inside a bpatcher,

in a bpatcher the "move" script moves to positions in the root level. 

before you ask: yes of course, it is connected to a [thispatcher] 

p.s.: measuring the relative position wont help, i need to move

which is where i need it.

fortunately "script sendbox thing patching_position $1 $2"

and "script sendbox thing patching_rect $1 $2 $3 4", etc. work fine.

You can use this to get the coords of the bpatcher and add, but it remains a pita - getorigin.js:

* get the coordinates of the bpatcher box - jasch 20060914

Yup, it's been like that for ages...

function bang()

ok guys, it seems i will have to use "offset" or "offsetfrom", hopefully that

it is a little bit more work to calculate the positions with that but

at least it doesnt run accross the screen like a 055+36 experiment.
