Using a component that has a collection property

When you use a component that includes a collection property, you typically use the Values dialog box to establish the items in the collection.

To use a component that includes a collection property:

1. Add the component to the Stage.
2. Use the Property inspector to name the component instance.
3. Open the Component inspector and display the Parameters tab.
4. Click the line that contains the collection property, and click the magnifying glass to the right of the line.

   Flash displays the Values dialog box.

5. Click the Add (+) button and define a collection item.
6. Click the Add (+), Delete (-), and arrow buttons to add, modify, move, and delete collection items.
7. Click OK.

For information on accessing a collection programmatically, see Accessing collection items at runtime in a Flash application.
