[Xerte] Re: hitTest question

[Julian Tenney]

It is that way. xmlNode.duplicate(4) will create four new nodes from the original duplicated node, making five in total. I've done this so many times I know it works, so there must be another problem in the code somewhere if you only end up with four children. Need to debug each step, and see what's going on.

Done it the other way dozens of times and it seems to work.

I think that is what it is supposed to do. From the Help file:

To create five pages on a framework that follows a script icon, and that has an initial prototypical page on it:

icon.nextSibling.firstChild.duplicate(5);

I think the prototype itself is not displayed, just the duplicates of it.

Sorry, pilot error.
Missing semi-colon in 80 lines of code.


Now a new one.

I have the proto textfield set up and working, now I do a duplicate(4) and only get the last 4.
First one seems to be being destroyed or overwritten or something.

sigh
