Syntax

Description
Director movie cast member property; determines whether scripts in a linked movie are enabled
(
TRUE or 1) or disabled (FALSE or 0).
This property is available for linked Director movie cast members only.
This property can be tested and set.
Example

scriptText
Syntax
member(whichCastMember).scriptText
the scriptText of member whichCastMember
Description
Cast member property; indicates the content of the script, if any, assigned to the cast member
specified by
whichCastMember.
The text of a script is removed when a movie is converted to a projector, protected, or compressed
for Shockwave. Such movies then lose their values for the
scriptText cast member property.
Therefore, the movie’s
scriptText cast member property values can’t be retrieved when the movie
is played back by a projector. However, Director can set new values for
scriptText cast member
property inside the projector. These newly assigned scripts are automatically compiled so that
they execute quickly.
This property can be tested and set.
Example
This statement makes the contents of field cast member 20 the script of cast member 30:
member(30).scriptText = member(20).text
