Description

QuickTime cast member and sprite property; indicates whether a cast member or sprite is a QuickTime VR movie that has not yet been downloaded (TRUE), or whether the cast member or sprite isn't a QuickTime VR movie (FALSE).

Testing for this property in anything other than an asset whose type is #quickTimeMedia produces an error message.

This property can be tested but not set.

Example

This handler checks to see if the member of a sprite is a QuickTime movie. If it is, the handler further checks to see if it is a QTVR movie. An alert is posted in any case.

on checkForVR theSprite
	if sprite(theSprite).member.type = #quickTimeMedia then
		if sprite(theSprite).isVRMovie then
			alert "This is a QTVR asset."
		else
			alert "This is not a QTVR asset."
		end if
	else
		alert "This is not a QuickTime asset."
	end if
end
