Coordinates of Shapes in Groups

[david]

i have a rectangle shape which has the coordinates of its 4 corners in its custom properties (depends on its angle).
but when i group the rectangle together with other shapes, the coordinates become in relation to the group.  i don't want the coordinates to change.  i want them to be still in relation to the frame.

how can i do that?

hi Wapperdude.
thanks alot for the reply.

the link seems to be just what i needed.
good to know that i don't need to calculate the points by myself.

good day
David
