Constructor Detail
SelectionFormat()Constructor
public function SelectionFormat(rangeColor:uint = 0xffffff, rangeAlpha:Number = 1.0, rangeBlendMode:String = "difference", pointColor:uint = 0xffffff, pointAlpha:Number = 1.0, pointBlendMode:String = "difference", pointBlinkRate:Number = 500)

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Creates a SelectionFormat object with the specified properties.

A SelectionFormat created with the default values will use black for the highlight colors, 1.0 for the alphas, and BlendMode.DIFFERENCE for the blending modes. The cursor blink rate is 500 milliseconds.

Parameters
rangeColor:uint (default = 0xffffff) — The color for drawing the highlight.
 
rangeAlpha:Number (default = 1.0) — The transparency value for drawing the highlight. Valid values are between 0 (completely transparent) and 1 (completely opaque, which is the default).
 
rangeBlendMode:String (default = "difference") — The blend mode for drawing the highlight. Use constants defined in the BlendMode class to set this parameter.
 
pointColor:uint (default = 0xffffff) — The color for the drawing cursor.
 
pointAlpha:Number (default = 1.0) — The transparency value for drawing the cursor. Valid values are between 0 (completely transparent) and 1 (completely opaque, which is the default).
 
pointBlendMode:String (default = "difference") — The blend mode for drawing the cursor. Use constants defined in the BlendMode class to set this parameter.
 
pointBlinkRate:Number (default = 500) — The rate at which the cursor blinks, in milliseconds.
