Good.  Although working out how to code these things yourself is far
more valuable than using plugins :-) I'll just point out that the
quick_move plugin and make transient or permanent buttons which copy /
clone / move the current node to designated places.

Thanks everybody, I got it working.  Starting to wrap my head around how 
all this works.  I appreciate all the help.

p.moveToLastChildOf(g.findNodeAnywhere(c, 'ActionItems'))

is probably what you want.  'ActionItems' is a str(ing) literal, whereas 
ActionItems is an undefined variable.

Re: Simple Scripting Question

[Jacob Peck]

Try this:


p = c.p.clone()
dest = g.findNodeAnywhere(c,'ActionItems')
p.moveToLastChildOf(dest)
c.redraw()
---

moveToLastChildOf is expecting a position, not a name. :)

Hope this helps,

Can I not call a Node directly by it's name?  Or have I done something 
else incorrectly?


Thank you

​Let p = tmpNode Try p.moveToLastChildOf(​ActionItems) or
p.moveToNthChildOf(ActionItems, n)

You must also do a c.redraw() to make the change visible.

If you use the standard nomenclature (p, p2) etc, you can use typing
completion (Alt-1) to discover appropriate methods.
