cacheSize()

Syntax

cacheSize Size
cacheSize()

Description

Function and command; sets Director's cache size. The value is in kilobytes.

The cacheSize function is valid only for movies running in Director or as projectors. This function is not valid for Shockwave movies because they use the network settings of the browser in which they run.

Example

This handler checks whether the browser's cache setting is less than 1 MB. If it is, the handler displays an alert and sets the cache size to 1 MB:

on checkCache if
	cacheSize()<1000 then
		alert "increasing cache to 1MB"
		cacheSize 1000
	end if
end
