Optional X and Y for SScript:

[LarryJD]

The new SScript: feature enabling Script and SubScript files to include other SubScript files is a very powerful feature and is much appreciated.

If the SScript: could take optional CX and CY fields it would be even more powerful. This would allow grouped of UI controls to be laid out relative to each other as a fixed group on a screen which could easily be added to and repositioned on a screen(s). This would make creating and maintaining custom screens much easier. In addition it would make it much easier to use a control grouping on multiple screens.

For example the feeds and speeds control cluster, the jogging button cluster, the DRO cluster, etc.

Mabe something like this?
SScript:DROsubscript.scr, CX:10, CY:15

Hi Larry,

Sorry for the delay, here is a pre-release with SubScript Support from the Screen Editor GUI. This should include all previous patches as well.

And a Video showing the SubScript Support.
