pictureP()

Syntax

pictureP(pictureValue)

Description

Function; reports whether the state of the picture member property for the specified cast member is TRUE (1) or FALSE (0).

Because pictureP doesn't directly check whether a picture is associated with a cast member, you must test for a picture by checking the cast member's picture member property.

Example

The first statement assigns the value of the picture member property for the cast member Shrine, which is a bitmap, to the variable pictureValue. The second statement checks whether Shrine is a picture by checking the value assigned to pictureValue.

set pictureValue to the picture of member "Shrine"
put pictureP(pictureValue)

The result is 1, which is the numerical equivalent of TRUE.
