[Resolved] prototype.addProperty

Hi,

I just started with trying prototype methods. With the help of a found function I wrote this:

code:

---

MovieClip.prototype.addProperty('_color', this.getColor, this.setColor);



function getColor(){

    return new Color(this).getRGB();

}

function setColor(rgb){

     return new Color(this).setRGB(rgb);

        

}

---

That works great. Anywhere in the movie I can now change a color of an object with object._color = 0xff0000; (pretty excited about this) :)

However I'm trying to do the same thins with _bold. It would be great if you could just alter the textformatting by saying textbox._bold = true;

This is what I'm trying (and does not work):

code:

---

MovieClip.prototype.addProperty('_bold', this.getBold, this.setBold);



function getBold(){ 

   format = new TextFormat();

   return format.bold;

}

function setBold(bool){

   format = new TextFormat();

   format.bold = bool;

   return this.setTextFormat(format);

}

---

Notatation or syntax may seem a bit odd, but I'm useing SWiSHmax (please don't bash me.) :D

Thanks for any help!

After reading and trying some more, this works:

code:

---

TextField.prototype.addProperty('_bold', this.getBold, this.setBold);

---

code:

---

function getBold(){ 

   format = this.getTextFormat();

   return format.bold;

}

function setBold(bool){

   format = new TextFormat();

   format.bold = bool;

   return this.setTextFormat(format);

}
