Aaah, great, this is what I was missing. Thanks a bunch!
I was aware of the two way of calling methods, just didn't think to try the : way for controls.
Cheers
ps. but this works only for members that come from LUA, not global vars that store the UI element names right?
I modified my code and it works for members under the LUA addon namespace, but not when I assign it to local

local UiElement = AddonNameUiElement

then calling UiElement:SetValue(x) does not do anything while calling element directly by id works AddonNameUiElement:SetValue(x)
