Print, prints the target movie clip according to the boundaries specified in the parameter (bmovie, bmax, or bframe). If you want to print specific frames in the target movie clip, attach a #p frame label to those frames.

print (target, "Bounding box");

Parameters

target: The instance name of a movie clip to print. By default, all of the frames in the target instance print. If you want to print specific frames in the movie clip, assign a #p frame label to those frames.

Bounding box: A modifier that sets the print area of the movie clip. Enclose this parameter in quotation marks, and specify one of the following values:

bmovie: Designates the bounding box of a specific frame in a movie as the print area for all printable frames in the movie. Assign a #b frame label to the frame whose bounding box you want to use as the print area. If you use bmovie for the Bounding box parameter but do not assign a #b label to a frame, the print area is determined by the Stage size of the loaded movie.

bmax: Designates a composite of all of the bounding boxes of all the printable frames as the print area. Specify bmax when the printable frames in your movie vary in size.

bframe: Indicates that the bounding box of each printable frame should be used as the print area for that frame. This changes the print area for each frame and scales the objects to fit the print area. Use bframe if you have objects of different sizes in each frame and want each object to fill the printed page.

note: All of the printable elements in a movie must be fully loaded before printing can begin.

Example

The following example prints all of the printable frames in the movie clip my_mc with the print area defined by the bounding box of the frame with the #b frame label attached:

print(my_mc,"bmovie");
