<br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I'm quite new
to Xerte and try to create my first project using a custom made interface. The layout
of the interface uses two different boxed to organize the content. Each box is
a movieclip on the main timeline of the interface.swf file. I want to change
the width of these boxes using scripts in Xerte. So I tried
rootIcon.box1._width = 400 and rootIcon.clip.box1._width = 400 and even
rootIcon.swf.box1._width = 400 - no luck. I couldn't find a hint in the Xerte
help ... can you help me?</span> <br>
<br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>By the way: are
there any complex learning objects out there that use custom made interfaces,
combinations of built in functionalities and externally loaded flash files,
etc. to learn from?</span> <br>
<br>
<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Thanks,</span> <br>
