loaded

Usage

-- Lingo syntax
memberObjRef.loaded

// JavaScript syntax
memberObjRef.loaded;

Description

Member property; specifies whether a specified cast member is loaded into memory (TRUE) or not (FALSE). Read-only.

Different cast member types have slightly different behaviors for loading:

• Shape and script cast members are always loaded into memory.
• Movie cast members are never unloaded.
• Digital video cast members can be preloaded and unloaded independent of whether they are being used. (A digital video cast member plays faster from memory than from disk.)

Example

This statement checks whether cast member Demo Movie is loaded in memory and if it isn't, goes to an alternative movie:

-- Lingo syntax
if member("Demo Movie").loaded = FALSE then 
   _movie.go(1, "Waiting.dir")
end if

// JavaScript syntax
if (member("Demo Movie").loaded == false) {
   _movie.go(1, "Waiting.dir")
}
