Initializing Panels with variables doesn't work

Hello, I think it is not possible to use variables in Panel struct initializations:
var test = 2;
typedef struct Custom_Panel{
var test_x;
} Custom_Panel;
Custom_Panel* mypan = { test_x = test;}
VECTOR* testVec = {x = test;}
PANEL* looptxt_pan = { pos_x = test;}
I get a "number syntax test" error for the line "PANEL* looptxt_pan = { pos_x = test;}" However, the variable initialization works for Vector and custom structs(didn't try it with other engine objects yet) The manual says: Within the struct initialization, any numbers, variables, character strings, or pointers to other structs can be used, but internal engine variables (such as "camera"), and #defines (such as a previously defined "NUMBER_OF_ARRAY_ELEMENTS") can not be used. But I couldn't find anything that it isn't working with Panels.

but you can not initialize variables with other variables. As far as I unterstand the manual, you can in a struct initialization. It says: Within the struct initialization, any numbers, variables, character strings, or pointers to other structs can be used I also tested it with the Vector struct and it works:
#include <acknex.h>
var test = 42;
VECTOR* testVec = {x = test;}
function main()
{
printf("%i", (int)testVec.x);
}
As i said in the original post, it's just not working for Panels...

Ok, thank you very much. Maybe change this sentence in the manual then: Within the struct initialization, any numbers, variables, character strings, or pointers to other structs can be used
