Description
Cast member, image object and sprite property; for vector shape, Flash, animated GIF, bitmap, and
shape cast members, determines the height, in pixels, of the cast member displayed on the Stage.
• For cast members, works with bitmap and shape cast members only. This property can be
tested but not set.
• For image objects, this property can be tested but not set.
• For sprites, setting the sprite’s height automatically sets the sprite’s stretch property to TRUE.
For the value set by Lingo to last beyond the current sprite, the sprite must be a puppet. This
property can be tested and set.
Examples
This statement assigns the height of cast member Headline to the variable vHeight:
vHeight = member("Headline").height
This statement sets the height of sprite 10 to 26 pixels:
sprite(10).height = 26
This statement assigns the height of sprite (i + 1) to the variable vHeight:
