HTML5 Function layer_instance_get_instance() not defined on HTML5

[MarceloP]

Hello,

Seems that the function layer_instance_get_instance is not defined neither for the HTML5 export, Test and Debug.

I've created a simple example with nothing except a call of this function and I get the same error. How come this function does not exist in HTML5? Should I file a bug report? Will I be answered (since my last 2 were ignored until now, 3 months after I submit them)?

My Code:

    type = layer_get_element_type(elements[i]);  
    switch(type){
        case layerelementtype_instance: //Element is an Object
            var instanceId = layer_instance_get_instance(elements[i]);
            if(instanceId != -1){
                instanceId.image_alpha = image_alpha;
            }
        break;
        //... other types
    }

Error, Code Generated in Html5 and Find (only 2 occurrences were found, therefore it gives as not defined):

Hi, it's already fixed: https://bugs.yoyogames.com/view.php?id=28625

(but the reason why the fix is still not merged is a mystery)

That's a pretty good question. The last update was on 23rd of March and I do need this feature, since I'd have to change a lot in my game to solve without using this function....
Thank you for pointing that out @chmod777!
