There's something wrong, in the meantime, you can send the "script

//// is there a way to move an fpic object in javascript?

function move_myPanel(X, Y)

	/// move the 100x100 Panel
	myPanel.rect = [X, Y, X+100, Y+100];

function move_myFpic(X, Y)

	/// move my Fpic
	this.patcher.message("script", "move", "myFpic", X, Y);
