I found the answer. To get the text from the state node you write it like this:

Levels.StringValue("/levels/level[1]/scene[1]/flower[1]/state/text()")

Hope this will help someone else who gets stuck!

I'm having an odd problem with XML. I am trying to view a node in a text box.

If I do a node count of my XML like this:

Levels.NodeCount("/levels/level[1]/scene[1]/flower[1]/state")

I get a node count of 1, which is correct as there is a <state>hidden</state> at that node location.

But, if I do this:

Levels.StringValue("/levels/level[1]/scene[1]/flower[1]/state")

I do not get the text ("hidden") from the node. I just get nothing back at all.

I also tried using /state[text()] which should get the text from the node, but that doesn't work either.

Am I missing something in the way that C2 handles xpath?

Thanks for any help!!!

Thanks, — I guess it is back to the drawing board!

Namkazt, your Catmul-Rom splines are done just how I want to do mine (with a dashed line). I'm just getting started with Construct 2 but I am a professional programmer of Android and web.

I used them when I programmed TKD3D in Director several years ago. I don't have enough rep points for a URL but you can do a google search and go to their web page.

There's an image where the spline was used (pink line) which was drawn dynamically (live).

Anything you feel like sharing would give a great boost to me getting started. We would all appreciate it!
