Moving by modifying dbid->xy

Hi All,

I'm trying to move a text by

;-- set selection filter
axlSetFindFilter( ?enabled list("noall" "text") ?onButtons list("text") )
;-- let user select a text
axlSelect( ?groupMode nil ?prompt "Please Select Text" )
;-- obtain Text dbid
text_dbid = axlGetSelSet()

;-- modify the location of component!?!?
text_dbid->xy = list(100 200)

the last line doesnt work.. i just cant change the 'xy' of the text.
May I know if this is possible?

thanks,
Newbie

forgot to include

text_dbid = axlGetSelSet()

text_dbid = car(text_dbid) <--- remove from list first

text_dbid->xy = list(100 200)

No this isn't possible unfortunately! Try using axlTransformObject.
