Is it possible to Animate the State infromation in a SXP on an object by object bais?

No, It's not possible. Because SXP's get called during the surface color calculation stage, no infomation about the current object, such as its name, is available. The best that could be done is to create "Data Set" names that get defined by the user during setup, then the SXP could dynamically track state via the data set name. However, this would create a rather unwieldy and slow SXP. -Grant Blaha [ADESK]
