Problem having two or more plugin/layer containers

Building on my last post about Parent-Child relationships and the new type="container" (Parent - Child with the new type="container" *SOLVED*), It seems that I'm not able to define two containers like this:

Code

<layer name="floor1" keep="true" type="container" width="1" height="1" >
		<layer name="child1" keep="true" url="common/mappoint.png" align="center" x="50" y="50" />
		<layer name="child2" keep="true" url="common/mappoint.png" align="center" x="150" y="50" />
</layer>
<layer name="floor2" keep="true" type="container" width="1" height="1" >
		<layer name="child1" keep="true" url="common/mappoint.png" align="center" x="100" y="150" />
		<layer name="child2" keep="true" url="common/mappoint.png" align="center" x="150" y="150" />
</layer>

The first one appears but not the second one. Why?

Hmmm... it seems like you can't duplicate layer/plugin names. It makes sense.
it should be like this:

Code

<layer name="floor1" keep="true" type="container" width="1" height="1" >
		<layer name="child1" keep="true" url="common/mappoint.png" align="center" x="50" y="50" />
		<layer name="child2" keep="true" url="common/mappoint.png" align="center" x="150" y="50" />
</layer>
<layer name="floor2" keep="true" type="container" width="1" height="1" >
		<layer name="child3" keep="true" url="common/mappoint.png" align="center" x="100" y="150" />
		<layer name="child4" keep="true" url="common/mappoint.png" align="center" x="150" y="150" />
</layer>

Hi,

right, each name must be unique.
Accessing each element by code is always directly possible - e.g. via 'layer[name]' - regardless if that element was a child element or a parent element.

Best regards,
Klaus
