Accessing slider control methods - powlo - 2013-12-28

I have this in a skin:

Code:
<control type="slider" id="22212">

      <description>My first slider control</description>

      <left>100</left>

      <top>570</top>

      <width>375</width>

      <height>30</height>

      <visible>true</visible>

      <texturesliderbar>osd_slider_bg_2.png</texturesliderbar>

      <textureslidernib>osd_slider_nibNF.png</textureslidernib>

      <textureslidernibfocus>osd_slider_nib.png</textureslidernibfocus>

</control>

Then in my (weather) script I have this:

Code:
slider = xbmcgui.Window(12600).getControl(22212)

percent = slider.getPercent()

Execution of the .getPercent() causes XBMC to crash. In fact, it seems as though accessing any property of the slider causes a crash*. There is nothing reported in the log file.

*after further experimentation it seems inherited, built in properties or methods do work. Eg __getattribute__(), __sizeof__(), __str__() all work.
