Untill now I've considered myself an amateur scriptor. I can get these free in-world scripts and manipulate them for most of my simple needs. However my building skills are quickly surpassing my scripting skills and its driving me nuts. I've created a beautiful 15 prim kitchen cabinet with working doors and drawers. A young lady gave me a copy of a drawer script that allows them to slide open and closed. I figured out how to make the adjustments to suit my cabinet. I fixed up my door scripts to work both doors nicely. However I must be really stupid cuz I cant figure out how to link all the pieces together and have the individual parts opperate with their own scripts. I mean I linked them together and when I touch the drawer face for one the whole darn cabinet moves. :( I just cant figure out how to get them all linked but working seperate, I really dont want to have to leave to scripted parts unlinked cuz moving the whole will takea life time and I doubt mean just a "Second Life-Time" either!!

The Timeless Prototype door script in the library allows for linked objects to move wrt their parent. Works by putting the two sets (open and closed) of values for size, rotation and position into description and name fields. You need to calibrate each value with some simple commands.
