Not really, unless you know the path through the data model to the object via keys. Also, you could use parent.findFirstObject() calls. However, argServer is supposed to make life easier and is going to be expanded to include things selected graphically. At the moment you can get the currently mouse-selected peaks with: argServer.getCurrentPeaks() In the future I will develop methods to add macros to the spectrum window right mouse menu, which will enable you to select individual peaks or a particular location as input.
