Screen object
Example
The following example checks to see if the first screen in the outline is hidden and changes the visibility of the screen
accordingly. Then, a message in the Output panel shows what the visibility of the screen was before the change:
if (fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.screens[0].hidden) {
fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.setScreenProperty("hidden", false);
fl.trace(fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.screens[0].name+" had its 'hidden' property
set to 'false'");
}
else {
fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.setScreenProperty("hidden", true);
fl.trace(fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.screens[0].name+" had its 'hidden' property
set to 'true'");
}
screen.instanceName

Output panel to show the instance name of the screen:
var myChildren = new Array();

var myInstanceName =
fl.getDocumentDOM().screenOutline.rootScreen.childScreens[0].instanceName;
fl.trace(" The instanceName is "+myInstanceName+". ");
