It can be, but be careful and make sure you use the code Mark cited above. There are two bits here, the first is that you can save in your movie a "Display Template" that will be used to format a MIAW created to open that movie, this prevents you from having to do all that code each and every time you open the window. It is the _movie's_ display template properties that you are setting via the PI's Display Template tab. Apart from that, all those same properties are exposed via code control on the window directly just like the old school windowType was, and you access those similar to Mark's code above. The code equivalent of setting the movie's display template property is this: _movie.displayTemplate.appearanceOptions.mask = maskMemberReference (after you set that you can save the movie and it will save your setting) But be clear: setting the _movie's_ display template properties after that movie is opened in a MIAW will do nothing to the window's appearance, you must set the window's active properties once the MIAW has been created. This is a common pitfall for folks trying out the new MIAW syntax options. Hope that helps!
