Reference to object from within the object.

Hi,

I am trying to create a button with two images using:

- timeline object
-- hotspot
-- image 1
-- image 2

It is for the tictactoe game. On startup the timeline is stopped at frame 0 which is empty. Click on it while it is your turn and it will show your icon.

I have analyzed the memory game in the showcase section and noticed they have created a new object of everything for each card.

Following the KIS(S) approach to programming I have created one object and added 9 instances of this object to the board and gave each of them an unique ScriptID.

The only thing I need now is for the hotspot to 'know/be aware' of the ScriptID of the timeline object it is in?
I tried some combinations of 'this' but couldn't get it to work.

Is it possible?

Changed my approach to having 9 instances of the formentioned timeline object and 1 button for each instance.

This is a feature that's currently on our request list.

Thanks, I am looking forward to using it. It will make some scenarios a lot easier to maintain.
