The
member
sprite property differs from the
memberNum
sprite property, which specifies only the
sprite’s number to identify its location in the cast but doesn’t specify the cast itself. The
member
sprite property also differs from
mouseMember
and the obsolete
castNum
sprite properties, neither
of which specifies the sprite’s cast.
When assigning a sprite’s
member
property, use one of the following formats:
•
Specify the full member and cast description (
sprite(x).member = member(A, B
) .
•
Specify the cast member name (
sprite(x).member = member ("MELODY "
).
•
Specify the unique integer that includes all cast libraries and corresponds to the
mouseMember
function (
sprite(x).member = 132
) .
If you use only the cast member name, Director finds the first cast member that has that name in
all current casts. If the name is duplicated in two casts, only the first name is used.
To specify a cast member by number when there are multiple casts, use the
memberNum
sprite
property, which changes the member’s position in its cast without affecting the sprite’s cast (
set
the memberNum of sprite x to 132
).
You can determine the
memberNum
sprite property from the
member
sprite property by using the
phrase
the number of the member of sprite x
. You can also retrieve other cast member
properties by using phrases such as
the name of the member of sprite x
or
the rect of
the member of sprite x
.
The cast member assigned to a sprite channel is only one of that sprite’s properties; other
properties vary by the type of media element in that channel in the Score. For example, if you
replace a bitmap with an unfilled shape by setting the
member
sprite property, the shape sprite’s
lineSize
sprite property doesn’t automatically change, and you probably won’t see the shape.
Similar sprite property mismatches can occur if you change the member of a field sprite to a
video. Although you can change all sprite properties through the
type
sprite property, it’s
generally more useful and predictable to replace cast members with similar cast members. For
example, replace bitmap sprites with bitmap cast members.
This property can be tested and set.
Examples
This statement assigns cast member 3 of cast number 4 to sprite 15:
sprite(15).member = member(3, 4)
The following handler uses the
mouseMember
function with the sprite.member property to find if
the mouse is over a particular sprite:
on exitFrame
MM = the mouseMember
target = sprite(1).member
if target = MM then put "above the hotspot"
go the frame
end
