Re: Director and Flash objects

[Irv Kalb]

I don't know how you can get the properties of the flash object, but 
getting the spriteNumber is easy.

In any behavior that is attached to the sprite (or create a new one 
if there aren't any), if you just decleare the property "spriteNum", 
it will automatically be given the number of the channel where the 
sprite is located.  For example, you could add a behavior like this:

property spriteNum

on beginSprite me
  put "My sprite number is:"  && spriteNum
end
And it will report the correct sprite number no matter what channel 
the Flash sprite (or any sprite) is in.  You can then write code to 
use the variable "spriteNum" to do whatever you want.

Hello all

Within Director I can have an object like <offspring "Video_loc" 2
c4bcd44> and I am able to get the spriteNum rather easy.
Now I have imported a few flash films and again the objects in the list
has this format
e.g <FlashObject e8b8840>
e.g <FlashObject e8d6504>
Would anybody be able to tell me how I can extract all properties of
this flash object within a loop?
Or, how can I extract sprite numbers (in director) of these flash
object?
Many thanks for any hints
