<br>
</font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
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?</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">
<br>
</font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
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?</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">
