[attachment=0:tu9m01rn][/attachment:tu9m01rn]Problem Description
This is a UI issue. The "template" offered by C2 when filling in a value with the Touch.XAt or YAt function does not indicate that a layer parameter may be specified in addition to a touch index parameter. See attached image.

Attach a Capx

.capx not applicable, as this is a UI bug. An image is offered instead.

Description of Capx

Not applicable.

Steps to Reproduce Bug
- Step 1 Fill in any value field by double clicking the "XAt" expression under the touch category.
- Step 2 Observe that the offered template shows "Touch.XAt(Index)" instead of "Touch.XAt(Index,"layer")"
Observed Result

Confusion.

Expected Result

Correct template to display.

Closing as by design: the parameter is optional and the expression can be used without it, so it doesn't suggest to use a layer parameter. It is however documented in the manual.

Ashley Looked at the manual again, saw that it is listed a second time below the version showing only index. Sorry, missed that somehow.
