[Xerte] Re: set x values using relative path instead of ID

[Dave Burnett]

Thanks Johnathan. I tried many variations on that theme. :-)
I think the problem is that nomen addresses the xml nodes, while I'm trying to address an instantiated object.
I finally ran across this:
_level0.engine.IFC.FW_ENT.children[i]._y = 100+(offset*i); 
 which I loop through and can indeed move the clips about after they have been created.
Probably some misuse of code in there, which Julian will box my ears with when he returns.;-)

How about

icon.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.firstChild.clip()._x ?
Just a wild guess!
Kind regards

<LO>  <IFC>    <FW_ENT>

           <SCR> //from here, not knowing the ID of the DIS

something like icon._parent._parent.clip()._x etc???
I can't figure it out.
