Accessing a Fireworks document

All the functions listed in Document functions are methods of the Document object, which represents a Fireworks document. To perform a function on a Document object, you must first get the Document Object Model (DOM) of the document. You then call the functions as methods of that DOM.

Note: You can use methods that operate on a document's DOM only on open documents.

• To use a DOM function with a document other than the active document, use the following syntax; note that documentIndex is a zero-based index that specifies which document the command will affect.

  fw.documents[documentIndex].functionName();
  

• To use a DOM function with the active document, use fw.getDocumentDOM().functionName() (for more information, see fw.getDocumentDOM()).
