Property Listing
| Property | Type | Access | Description | 
|---|---|---|---|
| readonly | A list of the alpha channels stored in the graphic. | ||
| read/write | The name of the Photoshop path or alpha channel to use as a clipping path. | ||
| read/write | The clipping path type. | ||
| readonly | A collection of event listeners. | ||
| readonly | A collection of events. | ||
| read/write | If true, creates interior clipping paths within the surrounding clipping path. Note: Valid only when clipping type is alpha channel or detect edges. | ||
| read/write | Shrinks the area enclosed by the clipping path by the specified amount. (Range depends on the unit. For points: -10000 to 10000; picas: -833p4 to 833p4; inches: -138.8889 to 138.8889; mm: -3527.778 to 3527.778; cm: -352.7778 to 352.7778; ciceros: -781c11.889 to 781c11.889) | ||
| read/write | If true, inverts the clipping path. | ||
| readonly | Returns true if the object specifier resolves to valid objects. | ||
| readonly | The parent of the ClippingPathSettings (a Image, EPS, WMF, PICT, PDF or ImportedPage). | ||
| readonly | A collection of paths. | ||
| readonly | A list of the clipping paths stored in the graphic. | ||
| read/write | A property that allows setting of several properties at the same time. | ||
| read/write | If true, truncates the clipping path at the edge of the frame containing the graphic. Note: Valid only when clipping type is alpha channel or detect edges. | ||
| Number (range 0 - 255) | read/write | The lowest value (darkest) pixel to allow in the image. All pixels in the image whose values are greater than (lighter than) the threshold value are clipped (obscured). (Range: 0 to 255) Note: Valid only when clipping type is detect edges or alpha channel. | |
| Number (range 0 - 10) | read/write | Specifies how similar a pixel's intensity value can be to the threshold value before the pixel is obscured by the clipping path. (Range: 0 to 10) Note: Valid only when clipping type is detect edges or alpha channel. | |
| read/write | If true, uses the high-resolution version of the graphic to create the clipping path. If false, calculates the clipping path based on screen-display resolution. Note: Valid only when clipping type is detect edges. | 
Method Listing
EventListener addEventListener (eventType:String, handler:Varies File JavaScriptFunction, [captures:Boolean=Boolean])
Adds an event listener.
| Parameter | Type | Description | 
|---|---|---|
| eventType | The event type. | |
| handler | JavaScriptFunction | The event handler. Can accept: File or JavaScript Function. | 
| captures | This parameter is obsolete. (Optional) (default: false) | 
PageItem convertToFrame ()
Converts the clipping path to a frame.
ClippingPathSettings getElements ()
Resolves the object specifier, creating an array of object references.
Boolean removeEventListener (eventType:String, handler:Varies File JavaScriptFunction, [captures:Boolean=Boolean])
Removes the event listener.
| Parameter | Type | Description | 
|---|---|---|
| eventType | The registered event type. | |
| handler | JavaScriptFunction | The registered event handler. Can accept: File or JavaScript Function. | 
| captures | This parameter is obsolete. (Optional) (default: false) | 
String toSource ()
Generates a string which, if executed, will return the ClippingPathSettings.
String toSpecifier ()
Retrieves the object specifier.
