Screen object
Description
Property; a string that is equivalent to the Description field in the Accessibility panel. The description is read by the
screen reader.
Example
The following example gets the description of the screen and stores it in the
theDescription variable:
var theDescription = fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.screens[1].description;
The following example sets the description of the screen to Home Screen :
fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.screens[1].description = "Home Screen";
screen.forceSimple
Availability
Flash MX 2004.
Usage
screen.forceSimple
Description
Property; a Boolean value that enables or disables accessibility for the object’s children. This is equivalent to the inverse
logic of the Make Child Objects Accessible setting in the Accessibility panel. That is, if
forceSimple is true , it is the
same as the Make Child Object Accessible option being deselected. If forceSimple is false , it is the same as the Make
Child Object Accessible option being selected.
Example
The following example stores the value of
forceSimple in the areChildrenAccessible variable (a value of false
means the children of the object are accessible):
var areChildrenAccessible = fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.screens[1].forceSimple
The following example makes the children of the object accessible:
fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.screens[1].forceSimple = false;
screen.hidden
Availability
Flash MX 2004.
Usage
screen.hidden
Description
Property; a Boolean value that specifies whether the screen is visible. A screen with the
hidden property set to true is
not visible in any other screen.
