bitmapItem.compressionType
Availability
Flash MX 2004.
Usage
bitmapItem.compressionType
Description
Property; a string that determines the type of image compression applied to the bitmap.
Acceptable values are
"photo" or "lossless". If bitmapItem.useImportedJPEGQuality is
false, "photo" corresponds to JPEG using a quality from 0 to 100; if
bitmapItem.useImportedJPEGQuality is true, "photo" corresponds to JPEG using the
default document quality value. The value
"lossless" corresponds to GIF or PNG formats.
Example
The following code sets the compressionType property of the first item in the library of the
current document to
"photo":
fl.getDocumentDOM().library.items[0].compressionType = "photo";
alert(fl.getDocumentDOM().library.items[0].compressionType);
