In this paper we discuss the continuity of the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set of generalised graph-directed systems given by contractive infinitesimal similitudes on bounded complete metric spaces. We use the theory of positive linear operators to show that the Hausdorff dimension varies continuously with the functions defining the generalised graph-directed system under suitable assumptions.
