You can use an Imput Box not only for giving the result of a calculation, but also for giving the coordinates of a point. In this case working with an inputbox for an empty text works fine. In this method the filled in coordinate is assigned to the object Ans. In next applet one has to give the coordinates of a point. See how it works and make it yourself following the construction steps. [br]So we get:[br][list][*]Ans = (pi, pi) to start with an answer that certainly doesn't equal the solution[br][/*][*]text1 = "" is an empty text[/*][*]Create an inputbox for the object [i]text1[/i] with a scripting command SetValue(Ans, %0) to assign the filled in coordinates to Ans.[/*][/list]
