I guess the inline
schem still need to be optional, right ?
Yes, but I'm making some smooth changes that will not
require me to check for _createInline(), in fact you
might not event have to use a
dynapi.document.assignInlineElement() at all. More on
this later.
I think the need for a dynapi.document.assignInlineElement()  is much 
lowered with the combination of setID(id,isInline) and the use of 
isInline in addChild, right ?
We can still have it, sure.

I've tested it in the inline example, fixed a few bugs. Shall I wait on 
getting my cvs access, or can I send you what I have ?

PS. When I'm done I'll upload the changes to cvs

PS. Also remember that We'll now be using
DynLayerInline instead of DynLayer_inline

Ok, so do we add the isInline argument to setID
in
event.js where we do
use it in addChild ?
p.DynObjectSetID = DynObject.setID
p.setID = function(id,isInline) {
        p.DynObjectSetID(id);
        this.isInline = isInline;
};
Make sense ?

Well, I believe that using setID() will allows
us
to
better set the isInline property. This will
offer
greater flexiblity if we need to test if a
layer's
elm
already exist or if we need to do other stuff
with
inline layers. All we have to do is to check if
isLine
is true and we will know if the layers has an
inline
elm.

how about .bindInline('inlineID'); ?
thus binding yer dynlayer to an inline

Hmmm...

setID(newID,true) if it's for an inline is
more
flexible.


If done before adding the layer to the
document
then
when you do add, it
would bind the inline layer..
if done after the dynlayer has been added..
then
delete the dynamically
created components and bind to the inline
layer

So what about tweaking addChild(c,alias)
method
to
addChild(c,alias,inline). Then you can
specify
inline as true, and we
would default to no, which means it would
be
transparent to the current
api.
I disagree with adding an inline argument to
the
addChild. I would however suggest that a
isInline
property be used:

lyr.isInline=true;

or we could modify the setID() function to
use
the
inline agrument.

We can "override"
DynElement.prototype.addChild in the
dynlayer_inline.js, t should work
as long as you include that file, right ?
Yes but not necessary.

DynLayer.prototype.assignInlineElement =
function ()
{
     if (this.parent && !this.elm) {
         //I'm not sure we want to call
that
as
onprecreate was usually
used to do setHTML which doesn't make sense
here
since the html already
exists. Comments ?
//DynElement._flagEvent(this,'precreate');
DynLayer._assignElement(this);
DynLayer._updateValues(this);
DynElement._flagEvent(this,'create');
     }
}
Use _createInline() isstead of
assignInlineElement()

function(c,alias,inline) {
function(c,alias) {

if (!c) return dynapi.debug.print("Error:
no
object
sent to
[DynLayer].addChild()");
if (c.isChild) c.removeFromParent();
c.isChild = true;
c.parent = this;
if (c._saveAnchor) {
c.setAnchor(c._saveAnchor);
delete c._saveAnchor;
