EXTENDING FLASH CS4 PROFESSIONAL

Timeline object

Usage

timeline.clearKeyframes([startFrameIndex [, endFrameIndex]])

Parameters

startFrameIndex

A zero-based index that defines the beginning of the range of frames to clear. If you omit

startFrameIndex, the method uses the current selection. This parameter is optional.

endFrameIndex

A zero-based index that defines the end of the range of frames to clear. The range goes up to, but does

not include, endFrameIndex. If you specify only startFrameIndex, endFrameIndex defaults to the value of
startFrameIndex. This parameter is optional.

Returns
Nothing.

Description
Method; converts a keyframe to a regular frame and deletes its contents on the current layer.

Example
The following example clears the keyframes from Frame 5 up to, but not including, Frame 10 (remember that index
values are different from frame number values):

fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().clearKeyframes(4, 9);

The following example clears the keyframe at Frame 15 and converts it to a regular frame:

fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().clearKeyframes(14);

timeline.convertToBlankKeyframes()

Availability
Flash MX 2004.

Usage

timeline.convertToBlankKeyframes([startFrameIndex [, endFrameIndex]])

Parameters

startFrameIndex

A zero-based index that specifies the starting frame to convert to keyframes. If you omit

startFrameIndex, the method converts the currently selected frames. This parameter is optional.

endFrameIndex

A zero-based index that specifies the frame at which the conversion to keyframes will stop. The range

of frames to convert goes up to, but does not include, endFrameIndex. If you specify only startFrameIndex,
endFrameIndex defaults to the value of startFrameIndex. This parameter is optional.

Returns
Nothing.

Description
Method; converts frames to blank keyframes on the current layer.
