If you're going in there, can we bump the hint somewhere else.

For me, every time I type 'debug(' up it comes right over the caret, and stays there until I hit return.
I'm not a good typist and need to see all my mistakes.

I shall update the hints. Its generally used internally. It's big brother is

script(str, this) which is what executes script icons, so you can create and execute your own code if you want to...

I'm gapping at the moment.

taskData.group[groups.getPageIndex()].sound[0].sound

originally came in as a string to set the node xml:

"Filelocation + 'media\blah.mp3'"

How do I eval that so it works in a direct set of the clip:

common_sound.loadSound(taskData.group[groups.getPageIndex()].sound[0].sound);
