library object 317
Parameters
namePath A string that specifies the name of the item. If the item is in a folder, you can
specify its name and path using slash notation.
Returns
An integer value representing the item’s zero-based index value.

are considered part of the main index. Folder paths can be used to specify a nested item.
Example
The following example stores the zero-based index value of the library item square, which is in
the test folder, in the variable
sqIndex, and then displays the index value in a dialog box:
var sqIndex = fl.getDocumentDOM().library.findItemIndex("test/square");
alert(sqIndex);
library.getItemProperty()

Property summary for the Item object, along with property summaries for its subclasses.

Example
The following example shows a dialog box that contains the Linkage Identifier value for the
symbol when referencing it using ActionScript or for runtime sharing:
