   You can get an item through several means. One is to get it through the event, assuming you the script is run for this item:

   
   

   var item = LL.getEvent().getItem();

   
   

   
   

   A lots of things revolves around the PropertySet object. (follow the link for the properties that can be read and written)

   
   

   
   

   You access the properties this way:

   
   

   var properties = item.getProperties();

   
   

   
   

   Then you can query a property (assume the item is a shortcut):

   
   

   alert(properties.getInteger(“s.labelFontColor”));

   
   

   
   

   Or you can change it:

   
   

   var editor = properties.edit();

   
   

   editor.setInteger(“s.labelFontColor”, 0xffff0000);

   
   

   // edit more properties here

   
   

   editor.commit(); // when you’re done

   
   

   
   

   You can get the container (desktop or folder or panel) for an item this way:

   
   

   var container = item.getParent();

   
   

   
   

   Then get the size of the container:

   
   

   var width = container.getWidth(); // or getHeight();

   
   

   
   

   Or get the number of columns

   
   

   var columns = container.getProperties().getInteger(“gridPColumnNum”);

   
   

   
   

   You could set this width to the the item (detached from the grid)

   
   

   item.setSize(width, height)

   
   

   
   

   Or if on the grid:

   
   

   item.setCell(0, 0, columns, 1);

   Nice one! I’ll have a mess about with this when I finish work 🙂 you should move it to Tutorials or sticky it or something so its easier for noobs to find, I screenshotted it anyway but it would be a shame for it to get buried especially after you took the tym to type it all out for me.
