Description
Ok everyone it is time to have some major fun. I have created a script that will allow you to place a cube in any location you want at whatever size you want. This is an advanced script as you will need to understand how to graph positions to place the cubes where you want them. You will be asked for the x,y position of the origin point if you input a value greater than 3 it will be created somewheres off the screen unless you are wanting it that far away. Normal values range from:x = -2 to 2 and y = -2 to 2
although you can make them as large as you want. You will also be asked how big you want the cube. I decided to make this a percentage value as it was easier to program that way. You can exceed 100% and it will work creating a larger cube than the normal 100%. Just download and experiment. Remember you may have to re-center your image to be able to view all that you have created.

This is fun. Thanks.
Just FYI, I had to change the lines that say:
Transform.Variation[31] :=1;
to:
Transform.square :=1;

I would get a piece of graph paper and plot out your cubes onto it. each square on the graph paper would be the same as 0.5 points on the apo editor screen. So if you make a full sized cube at the point of origin 0,0 then on the graph paper draw a x,y intersection in the middle of the graph paper then fill in the four squares surrounding the point of origin on the graph paper. as that would be the same as the apo editor window.

I am so grateful for your and flakr (¿ 's inspiration. I learned so much trying to use the tutorial and now that I know how to make a cube from scratch I am happy to have your script to save some work
Thank you very much

I figured some people would find it too advanced but I haven't found a simpler way to do it yet. Sorry.

It's ok.. I learn slower than others becaus eof my dyslexia.. There are many forms in apo that I just cannot figure out..
