VBScript Example

    ' This example creates an FxTree, adds the FileInput operator

    set oTree = CreateFxTree()
    set oFxOp = AddFxOp( oTree, "File Input" )

    ' Print the positions before updating
    printPositions( oFxOp )

    ' Move the operator icon upwards and to the left
    SetFxOpPos oFxOp, 143, 88

    ' Print the positions after updating
    printPositions( oFxOp )

    function printPositions( in_operator )
       ' There is no scripting command to get the positions
       ' of an FxOperator, but you can use the object model:
       Application.LogMessage "X and Y positions of the " _
           & oFxOp.Name & " operator: " _
           & oFxOp.PositionX & ", " _
           & oFxOp.PositionY
    end function

    ' Output of above script:
    'INFO : "X and Y positions of the FileInput operator: 215, 146"
    'INFO : "X and Y positions of the FileInput operator: 143, 88"
