having problem with the alignment

Post by minx » Mon Jul 11, 2011 12:08 am

Hi, I just had a chance to try out MobGUI, and loving the product! But, I can't seem to get the alignment of the button to work correctly. I'm using a Mac, and when selecting a Right or Left button, I'm pressing "alt" double-click. Nothing happens. When I try the "other" keys like command or control, I get a duplicate button.
Is there some setting on the Mac I should check for?
Thanks,
Diane

Apologies - my MacBook says 'alt' on the option key, so you'll now know what I mean! :D

I just checked the frontscript catching the mousDoubleUp;

option key must be down
selectedObject must be 1 or more
tool must be pointer tool

You can drop controls on to your stack in both run and edit mode - check you are in edit mode and you can see the handles around the selected objects.
