Parameters
delta
A pair of floating-point values that specify the x and y coordinates in pixels by which the selected Bézier points
are moved. For example, passing (
{x:1,y:2}
) specifies a location that is to the right by one pixel and down by two
pixels from the current location.
Returns
Nothing.
Description
Method; if the selection contains at least one path with at least one Bézier point selected, moves all selected Bézier
points on all selected paths by the specified amount.
Example
The following example moves the selected Bézier points 10 pixels to the right and 5 pixels down:
fl.getDocumentDOM().moveSelectedBezierPointsBy({x:10, y:5});
document.moveSelectionBy()
Availability
Flash MX 2004.
Usage
document.moveSelectionBy(distanceToMove)
Parameters
distanceToMove
A pair of floating-point values that specify the x and y coordinate values by which the method
moves the selection. For example, passing ({
x:1,y:2
}) specifies a location one pixel to the right and two pixels down
from the current location.
Returns
Nothing.
Description
Method; moves selected objects by a specified distance.
Note: When the user uses the arrow keys to move the item, the History panel combines all presses of the arrow key as one
move step. When the user presses the arrow keys repeatedly, rather than taking multiple steps in the History panel, the
method performs one step, and the arguments are updated to reflect the repeated arrow keys.
For information on making a selection, see
Example
The following example moves the selected item 62 pixels to the right and 84 pixels down:
fl.getDocumentDOM().moveSelectionBy({x:62, y:84});
