- GroupObjects([list])
- Groups the objects in ``list'' together. ``list''
must contain the names of the objects to be grouped. If
``list'' is not given the currently selected Items are
used.
- MoveObject(dx, dy, [``name''])
- Moves the object ``name'' by dx and dy relative to its origin.
The distances are expressed in the actual measurement unit of the
document. If ``name'' is not given the currently selected Item is
used. If the object ``name'' belongs to a group, the whole group is
moved.
- MoveObjectAbs(x, y, [``name''])
- Moves the object ``name'' to a new location. The coordinates
are expressed in the actual measurement unit of the document. If
``name'' is not given the currently selected item is used. If the
object "name" belongs to a group, the whole group is moved.
- RotateObject(rot, [``name''])
- Rotates the object ``name'' by ``rot'' degrees. Positve values
mean counter clockwise rotation. If ``name'' is not given the
currently selected item is used.
- RotateObjectAbs(rot, [``name''])
- Sets the rotation of the object ``name'' to ``rot''. Positve
values mean counter clockwise rotation. If ``name'' is not given
the currently selected item is used.
- ScaleGroup(factor, [``name''])
- Scales the group the object ``name'' belongs to. Values greater
than 1 enlarge the group, values smaller than 1 make the group
smaller e.g a value of 0.5 scales the group to 50 % of is original
size, a value of 1.5 scales the group to 150 % of its original
size. The value for ``factor'' must be greater than 0. If ``name''
is not given the currently selected Item is used.
- SizeObject(width, height, [``name''])
- Resizes the object ``name'' to the given width and height. If
``name'' is not given the currently selected item is used.
- UnGroupObject([``name''])
- Destructs the group the object ``name'' belongs to. If ``name''
