IDE COM interface, CWAutomationTarget::SetNamedPanelDataField

Hello

Since the COM API Reference doesn't list this method (prob. the manual hasn't been updated), I'm asking here: I want to manipulate a panel that has nested settings, the exported XML looks like:
<SETTING><NAME>SymbianInstallationOutputLocation</NAME>
<SETTING><NAME>Path</NAME><VALUE>..\..\installv3</VALUE></SETTING>
<SETTING><NAME>PathFormat</NAME><VALUE>Windows</VALUE></SETTING>
<SETTING><NAME>PathRoot</NAME><VALUE>MMPDir</VALUE></SETTING>
</SETTING>

SetNamedPanelDataField works fine on simple settings like
<SETTING><NAME>SymbianInstallationOutputFilename</NAME><VALUE>INST.sis</VALUE></SETTING>
but there is no documentation on how to use it with the nested setting. Obvious string formats like 'SymbianInstallationOutputLocation|Path' or 'SymbianInstallationOutputLocation:ath' do not work.

Is this method supposed to work with nested settings, and if so, how? I'm using IDE version 5.5.

Cheers,

That should work, structured field names are separated by a period (.).
So for the HC12 prm file name in the linker panel, the following name is used:
"Panel for Linker for HC12.LinkParameterFilename"
