Thanks Kevin, Brennan,

Who would have thunk translate would be about positioning.

Unfortunately, I'm not quite sure about the syntax. The dictionary states
translate should follow this pattern:

translate reference -- the object to translate
by fixed point -- the distance to translate


What "objects" in QuickTime qualify to be "translated"?

What format should the fixed point be?


I'd be happy if I could just change the location of a whole sprite track.
Unfortunately, the following line kicks out a syntax error:

translate track "Sprite 1" of movie "sample.mov" by 10,10

I'd don't believe I have the fixed point in the right format. Trying (X,X)
didn't work either.

Any help would be appreciated...

TIA
