340 Chapter 3: Objects
The following example inserts three frames in the current layer only:
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().insertFrames(3, false);
The following example inserts four frames in all layers, starting from the first frame:
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().insertFrames(4, true, 0);
timeline.insertKeyframe()
Availability
Flash MX 2004.
Usage
timeline.insertKeyframe([frameNumIndex])
Parameters
frameNumIndex
A zero-based index that specifies the frame index at which to insert the
keyframe in the current layer. If you omit
frameNumIndex, the method uses the frame number of
the current playhead or selected frame. This parameter is optional.
Returns
Nothing.
Description
Method; inserts a keyframe at the specified frame. If you omit the parameter, the method inserts a
keyframe using the playhead or selection location.
This method works the same as
timeline.insertBlankKeyframe() except that the inserted
keyframe contains the contents of the frame it converted (that is, it’s not blank).
Example
The following example inserts a keyframe at the playhead or selected location:
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().insertKeyframe();
The following example inserts a keyframe at Frame 10 of the second layer (remember that index
values are different from frame or layer number values):
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().currentLayer = 1;
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().insertKeyframe(9);
timeline.layerCount
Availability
Flash MX 2004.
Usage
timeline.layerCount
Description
Read-only property; an integer that represents the number of layers in the specified Timeline.
