Properties and parameters for a screen (Flash Professional only)

You use the Property inspector to set properties and parameters for individual screens. On the left side of the Property inspector, you can view the instance name, width, height, and registration point of a screen:

• The instance name is a unique name assigned to a screen, used when you target the screen in ActionScript. Each screen is assigned a default instance name, based on its default name in the Screen Outline pane. The instance name and default screen name are also identical to the linkage identifier for the screen. If you update the instance name, the default screen name and the linkage identifier are also updated.
• Width and height are specified in pixels. The values in the W and H fields are read-only. Width and height are determined by the screen contents. You can autosnap the registration point to make sure it stays in the same relative position when the screen width and height change. See Specifying the ActionScript class and registration point of a screen (Flash Professional only).
• The x and y coordinates of the screen's registration point are specified in pixels. You can also change the registration point using the registration point grid. See Specifying the ActionScript class and registration point of a screen (Flash Professional only).

  You can move a child screen on the Stage by changing its x and y coordinates. If the Hide Screen context menu option for the child screen is selected (it is selected by default for slide screens only), you must select its parent screen in the Screen Outline pane, and then select the child screen on the Stage.

You can set parameters for slide and form screens, to control screen behavior during playback. See Setting parameters for a screen (Flash Professional only).
