good point Jason... I missed to mention that there is a layer with an actual
map (a JPG that is as well loaded dynamically) so what i can do is use that
file as a guide, draw the points where needed and again pass that
information the XML. which in reality I can accomplish the same effect as
when t

Yeah, but doesn't each element have X and Y positions on the XML? If
not, they must have just drawn the whole thing at once and did not have
X and Y positions for elements? Or they did not put each element in a
sprite or movie clip? If that's the case, then I don't see how you're
going to distingu
Precisely, when I look at the file I was going to work on my first instinct
was to look for the moviclips on the stage where they were created, but when
I took a closer look to the file I figured out that all the elements were
drawn with the drawing API using coordinates from an external XML. That
The file contains a map that has to be switched for a new map so the
coordinates cant be re-used. at least all the elements of the map have to be
re-drawn. The code can be reused but not the coordinates but thanks for the
idea..

I don't quite follow - why would you try to draw new points to know
where they are? Can't you get the X and Y coordinates of the graphics
already on the screen?

Does the xml data contain coordinates? If so, can't you just scale and
offset the coordinates to your stage? E.g. Treat latitude as Y and
longitude as X, offset to the upper-left coordinates of your map, and
then scale to pixels using a multiplier. Something like that.
