Do you mean draw with drawPanel() function?

If I add a textbox into my custom interface how can I refer to its variable?

At first I tried to give some text as rootIcon.name="hello"; (name is  
the variable of the dynamic textbox) but it didn't work properly.

Yes it works fine, but I don't want to reset the rootIcon (because it  
changes all the content thus my custom interface what I don't want to  
move).
Is there any other holder mc for the other pages?

I'll check it out a bit later.

Thanks in advance,
