Programmatically Accessing Animation Expressions on a Mimic

[LStone_AA]

Say I want to analyse a mimic and get a list of all configured Animation Expressions on all of the objects on all of its layers. Using mimic scripting I can get a hold of the runtime properties of objects on a mimic via things like Mimic.Layers(0).Item("label").Text - but is there any way to get the Animation Expression rather than what it resolves to in runtime? Are the animation expressions stored on the graphics object or someplace else?

Or if those expressions can't be accessed via mimic scripts, is there an API that can?

Here's a page which should help:

See the section title 'ViewX COM Interface'.

Where was that article when I was searching the KB?! Cheers Steve, I thought it might be that interface. Didn't know you could use it from within a mimic script though, that sounds... fraught. But it can be done, so off we go!
