Despite having eventually come to loathe Cobalt, I'm missing its Equations Palette, which provided the ability to constrain the dimensions of objects based on values derived from simple formulas.
For example, "Line B = Line A * 2", so that when Line A is resized, Line B is always twice as long.
I do a lot of of this sort of work, where the size of the finished product is based on a set of initial dimensions which varies from project to project. The provided parametric constraints aren't quite sophisticated enough to meet my needs.
What's the best way to use VW to resize several objects based on the dimensions of another object? Ideally, I'd like to relate parametrically constrained objects to dimensions on a worksheet, and use the worksheet to resize the objects.
It seems this is likely possible using VectorScript, but it also looks as though that would be very, very labor intensive.
Any advice will be much appreciated. After days I've fighting with this, I've reached an impasse.
