Question

Setting "properties" on IWSDK UIKit

https://iwsdk.dev/guides/10-spatial-ui-uikitml.html describes how to statically set up UI using .uikitml files and how to add event listeners, but does not document how to change "properties" of UIKit objects. These "properties" are documented somewhat at https://pmndrs.github.io/uikit/docs/getting-started/components-and-properties  These "properties" are not JavaScript properties. There is an undocumented setProperties({prop: value}) method to set these "properties", but no getProperty() or getProperties() methods.

Is setting UIKit "properties" documented anywhere?

Or to put it more generally, is there documentation on using UIKit dynamically via JavaScript/TypeScript?

This code runs without error, but nothing is visible:
 

        const tutorialAsset = this.world.getSceneObject<UIKitMLAsset>('tutorial');       
        // @ts-ignore
        const root = tutorialAsset.document   // UKKitDocument (root)
        const panel = new Container({ flexDirection: 'row', gap: 8 });
        panel.setProperties({width: 300, height: 300});
        panel.position.set(0, 1.5, -1);
        panel.add(new Text({ text: 'Hello XR' }));
        root.add(panel);
