Accessing Object Name

Is it possible to access an object's name?

Like in an expression Object.ObjectName.

There doesn't seem to be a way.

Thank You in advance.

An object is already accessed by its name. A Sprite named "bubble" will be accessed in expressions as bubble.someparameter

What's the purpose? It could help making better proposals :)

The purpose is being able to automatically write an object's name within a Family into a variable.

Something like this:

+ If (Family) "Letters" Clicked:

RecordLetterVar.Add: Letters.ObjectName

Imagine Letters contains objects like A, B, C etc. .

It would be tedious to manually write an 'On Click' Event for every letter object separately.

Of course I know what You said Tulamide, lol; but thank You for being there. :)

It would be tedious to manually write an 'On Click' Event for every letter object separately.Yes, it would be tedious. Why not having a family pv and adding that to RecordLetterVar ?

+ MouseKeyboard: On Left Clicked on Blue

-> System: Add Blue('name') to global variable 'letters'

+ System: Always (every tick)

-> output: Set text to global('letters')

'letters' here being a global text var and 'name' a family text var

Thanks for Your help Tulamide.

Yes, I thought about that too. That seems to be the only way. Then I would however still have to set every variable by hand to the respective objects name.

Don't You think it would be more easy to have access to the object's name? I mean it seems like it would be such a simple thing.

Anyway, it's not that much of a big deal. Just a small annoyance, I guess. lol

By the way, it's nice to see You're still around. <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />
