Efficient usage of AppendLayoutObjects

Hello,

My question is about practical usage of AppendLayoutObjects. This flag defines where should my objects stay "/R=(l, t, r, b )", if I got it correct. However, I can't read the coordinates of my objects when I place them personally. I don't want to stack them and don't want to tile them either. I have four plots and want to place all on a layout. Can you suggest me something?

Best,
Emre
I not sure what you are asking but from "I can't read the coordinates of my objects when I place them personally" I'm guessing that you want to place the objects manually and then determine the resulting coordinates so you can use them in a procedure. You can do this by looking at the window recreation macro. For details on window recreation macros, execute:
DisplayHelpTopic "Making a Window Recreation Macro"
DisplayHelpTopic "Saving a Window as a Recreation Macro"


You can also determine the coordinates using the LayoutInfo function but that is not necessary if I have understood what you are trying to do.

Hello,

You understood me correct. I want to place the plots manually, so I need to know the exact coordinazes of each object. So I can use them in a procedure file. Thank you for your help.

Best,
Emre
