Thanks John for helping me immediately !!!

The interface compiles very well - i just had to add Karins Tooltip Class which i found somewhere on the flashcoders mailing list.

Yeah indeed - the interface is a little bit messy :)))))

The missing fonts are:

DIN-Black
DIN-Medium
DINEngschrift
FFF Corporate Bold
FFF Interface01b

but don't worry - they are not really necessary for me to implement/test a new feature. I am working on a project with tons of V2 components and a highly nested object tree. XRay does its job very well but it is difficult for me to figure out the right object/mc from the tree view if i want to adjust its properties (e.g. x/y coordinates). So the idea is to extend the connector and the interface just a little bit to enable "live selection" in the observed swf. 

So here's what exactly want to do:

1) Extend the connector to add an additional(invisible) drag clip 
2) Detect the topmost mc that is under the mouse pointer (via _dropTarget property) when mouse is pressed
3) Send the object path to the interface
4) Select the object in the tree and highlight it 

That should work (theoretically) but i am not sure if it will cause event handler problems in the oberserved swf. Maybe the Watcher class could be used for that - we will see.
