Dynamic proportional shape resizing..

[Dustman]

I've got a script that builds a movable rectangle with 4 resizing verticies. I'm attempting to make it only resize proportionally but having mental errors trying to figure out the best way.

So far, I've got it keeping the rectangle, but I need some help making it proportional.

Verticies are layed out like so

0-3
| |
1-2

Currently if I move 2, it also changes the x of 3 and the y of 1.. thus keeping it squared up. Anybody feel like joining in on the fun?

Have you used _xScale and _yScale? They will keep proportion. (as long as you keep the numbers the same)

Wow JT that almost looked like you knew what you were doing!

hmm.. i'll try experimenting with change them..

The final produce will return the size and location of the box to a php script that will fireof ImageMagik and create a new image. I'm going to have to keep track of my scales to recalculate things correctly.
