You have a default xml namespace you need to deal with. Try: default xml namespace = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation";;
I see another namespcae declared, "x", but it does not appear to be used. Check the archives and docs for more information about xml namespace.

I thought this would give me all the line nodes, but it's empty: var xmlLines:XMLList = myXmlList..Line; Is that the right way to go about it, or is there another way? Xml code is below.
