bur2000	Posted - 02/25/2014 : 10:20:57 AM Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 9 I want to place some text elements at the same scalar position in different layers. However, from the command window I can only access any element in the currently active layer: Text1.x=100 Text2.x=100 #Command Error! Is there any way to access a text object in layer 2 without having to activate it first?

But when Layer 1 is active, the simple statement Text1.x=200 works. But [Graph1]1!Text1.x=200 does not work. I guess it's just how Origin does it. I did not realize that case. But it fails if the three objects are named "a", "a.x", "a.x.x", while gobject works. Anyway, who would name an object in that way.... �c�� ȥ� �f�u�c �c�� Τ� �c/ �� c�ʥ� �� ' �̩�� /�� թ��f �� ` ��

Such syntactic sugar of course tastes good. But right now, think about an object's name that consists of a dot, say, "Text1.x". How can one tell you expect the property "x" of "Text1", or just the object "Text1.x"? On the other hand, you make me think of the with...end with statement in other programming language, i.e. with object .property1 = p1 .property2 = p2 .... end with �c�� ȥ� �f�u�c �c�� Τ� �c/ �� c�ʥ� �� ' �̩�� /�� թ��f �� ` ��

Castiel	Posted - 02/25/2014 : 10:55:54 AM It's gobject.For example, gobject go1=[graph1]1!text1; gobject go2=[graph1]2!text2; go1.x=100; go2.x=100; �c�� ȥ� �f�u�c �c�� Τ� �c/ �� c�ʥ� �� ' �̩�� /�� թ��f �� ` ��
