1024 Chapter 14: Properties

The value of this property can also be set using the Reset Monitor to Movie’s Color Depth option

in the General Preferences dialog box.

Example

This statement sets the variable named switcher to the current setting of switchColorDepth:

-- Lingo syntax

switcher = _player.switchColorDepth

// JavaScript syntax

var switcher = _player.switchColorDepth;

This statement checks whether the current color depth is 8-bit and turns the switchColorDepth

property on if it is:

-- Lingo syntax

if (_system.colorDepth = 8) then

_player.switchColorDepth = TRUE

end if

// JavaScript syntax

if (_system.colorDepth == 8) {

_player.switchColorDepth = true;

}
