Roku Developer Program

[kraken]

Hello,

I watched the tutorial and have used other scripting languages in the past.   What I don't understand is how SceneGraph knows about the file I'm adding to a working example.  

Here's what I have, in the samples I want to use postergrid.xml and include it into Roku Recommends and then call the function "showpostergrid()" from within MainScene.brs.  I get no errors, nor do I get an grids appearing as expected.  

How do I test if the postergrid.xml is even being recognized and the function being called by the main program.  

I apologize in advance if this is obvious.  I've never used this platform.  I would really appreciate if someone could shed some light on this issue.  Thanks

If you're struggling with the BrightScript language, you're not alone.  That's why Roku also has the Direct Publisher tool for those channel developers who do not want to learn a scripting language.

Thanks,  A new twist on RTFM.  I guess "Give up and use the cookie cutter" is easier than a real answer.
