rect (member)
Syntax
member(
whichCastMember
).rect
the rect of member
whichCastMember
Description
Cast member property; specifies the left, top, right, and bottom coordinates, returned as a rectangle, for the rectangle of any graphic cast member, such as a bitmap, shape, movie, or digital video.
For a bitmap, the rect
member property is measured from the upper left corner of the bitmap, instead of from the upper left corner of the easel in the Paint window.
For an Xtra cast member, the rect
member property is a rectangle whose upper left corner is at (0,0).
The Director player for Java can't set the rect
member property.
This property can be tested. It can be set for field cast members only.
Example
This statement displays the coordinates of bitmap cast member 20:
put member(20).rect
Example
This statement sets the coordinates of bitmap cast member Banner:
member("Banner").rect = rect(100, 150, 300, 400)
