Hi Sebas, I am in fact already doing that to calculate in which cell i currently am pressing the mouse. That's working fine and probably has to stay no matter which solution i end up using. The issue comes when i make dynamic elements. If i do that i can't do any of the following anymore: - find it and drag it around (required an id) - reparent (required an id) - put it in a Column for multiple events starting at the same time (required an id) - ...
