58 The Fireworks Object Model
ExportOptions object
Use the following information to understand the rules for determining scaling in this object:
■ If useScale is set to true (the default), percentScale is used to uniformly scale the
object on export, and
applyScale is ignored.
■ If useScale is set to false and applyScale is set to false (the default), no scaling is
performed on the object when it is exported.
■ If useScale is set to false and applyScale is set to true, then xSize and ySize
determine scaling as follows:
■ If the value is positive, specifies the exact size for the axis.
■ If the value is zero, specifies that the axis varies without limit.
■ If the value is negative, specifies that the axis varies but can be no larger than
"
abs(value)"
■ If one value is positive and one is negative, the positive value is always used. This gives the
following possibilities:
■ xSize < 0, ySize < 0 – use min(xSize, ySize) scaling
■ xSize < 0, ySize = 0 – use xSize scaling
■ xSize < 0, ySize > 0 – use ySize scaling
■ xSize = 0, ySize < 0 – use ySize scaling
■ xSize = 0, ySize = 0 – illegal; use scale of 1.0
■ xSize = 0, ySize > 0 – use ySize scaling
■ xSize > 0, ySize < 0 – use xSize scaling
■ xSize > 0, ySize = 0 – use xSize scaling
■ xSize > 0, ySize > 0 – do not use; instead, use useScale = true and
percentScale = 0 to 100
The following table lists the properties of the ExportOptions object, along with their data
types and, where appropriate, acceptable values and notes.
NOTE
When this object is used to set properties, the only required property is exportFormat. If
other properties are not specified, their default values are used.
Property Data type Notes
animAutoCrop
Boolean The default value is true.
animAutoDifference
Boolean The default value is true.
applyScale
Boolean The default value is true.
