castMemberList

Syntax

member(whichCursorCastMember).castmemberList
the castmemberList of member whichCursorCastMember

Description

Cursor cast member property; specifies a list of cast members that make up the frames of a cursor. For whichCursorCastMember, substitute a cast member name (within quotation marks) or a cast member number. You can also specify cast members from different casts.

The first cast member in the list is the first frame of the cursor, the second cast member is the second frame, and so on.

If you specify cast members that are invalid for use in a cursor, they will be ignored, and the remaining cast members will be used.

This property can be tested and set.

Example

This command sets a series of four cast members for the animated color cursor cast member named myCursor.

Dot syntax:

member("myCursor").castmemberList =  \
[member 1, member 2, member 1 of castlib 2, member 2 of castlib 2]

Verbose syntax:

set the castmemberList of member "myCursor" =  \
[member 1, member 2, member 1 of castlib 2, member 2 of castlib 2]
