Referencing element added by addTo

[GaryParticipant]

What is the recommended way to access the element generated by the jqxTree addTo method?

Specifically, I am walking a tree data structure and adding any elements to the jqxTree programmatically using addTo. To allow for updates, I am adding elements one-at-a-time rather than creating a bulk addTo structure. However, adding the children of a new item in this way means I need some way to reference the newly generated element.

I saw in another forum response an approach of setting a unique ID in the element and looking that up. Is that the best/only way?

Hi Gary,

I suggest using unique Ids for each element and then getting the element.
Please see this example: http://jsfiddle.net/49gqnv70/1/
