Hi Jeremy, Welcome to the Exchange!
It is generally a good idea to summarize your examples that you post. That way; 1) We do not have to down load your code to see what "method 1" is. 2) You can resize your porperty nodes and mainipulate the properties from top to bottom in the order you want. This will avoid the multi-frame seq structure. 3) Defering front panel updates and then undefering afterwards may improve performance and appearence. Trying to help, Ben
