scriptText
Syntax
member(
whichCastMember
).scriptText
the scriptText of member
whichCastMember
Description
Cast member property; indicates the content of the script, if any, assigned to the cast member specified by whichCastMember
.
The text of a script is removed when a movie is converted to a projector, protected, or compressed for Shockwave. Such movies then lose their values for the scriptText
cast member property. Therefore, the movie's scriptText
cast member property values can't be retrieved when the movie is played back by a projector. However, Director can set new values for scriptText
cast member property inside the projector. These newly assigned scripts are automatically compiled so that they execute quickly.
This property can be tested and set.
Example
This statement makes the contents of field cast member 20 the script of cast member 30:
member(30).scriptText = member(20).text
