518 Chapter 12: Methods
Parameters
xScale
Required if specifying three scalings. Specifies the scale along the x-axis.
yScale Required if specifying three scalings. Specifies the scale along the y-axis.
zScale Required if specifying three scalings. Specifies the scale along the z-axis.
uniformScale Required if specifying a single, uniform scaling. Specifies the uniform scaling.
Example
This example first displays the transform.scale property for the model named Moon, then it
scales the model using the
scale command, and finally, it displays the resulting
transform.scale value.
put member("Scene").model("Moon").transform.scale
-- vector( 1.0000, 1.0000, 1.0000)
member("Scene").model("Moon").scale(2.0,1.0,0.5)
put member("Scene").model("Moon").transform.scale
-- vector( 2.0000, 1.0000, 0.5000)
This statement scales the model named Pluto uniformly along all three axes by 0.5, resulting in
the model displaying at half of its size.
member("Scene").model("Pluto").scale(0.5)
This statement scales the model named Oval in a nonuniform manner, scaling it along its z-axis
but not its x- or y-axes.
member("Scene").model("Pluto").scale(0.0, 0.0, 0.5)

script()
Usage
-- Lingo syntax
script(memberNameOrNum {, castNameOrNum})
// JavaScript syntax
script(memberNameOrNum {, castNameOrNum});
Description
Top level function; creates a reference to a given cast member that contains a script, and
optionally specifies the cast library that contains the member.
An error is returned if the given cast member does not contain a script, or if the given cast
member does not exist.
Parameters
memberNameOrNum Required. A string that specifies the name of the cast member that contains a
script, or an integer that specifies the index position of the cast member that contains a script.
castNameOrNum Optional. A string that specifies the name of the cast library that contains the
member
memberNameOrNum, or an integer that specifies the index position of the cast library that
contains the member
memberNameOrNum. If omitted, script() searches the first cast library.
