Parameters horizontalChange Required. Specifies the horizontal offset, in pixels. When horizontalChange is greater than 0, the offset is toward the right of the Stage; when horizontalChange is less than 0, the offset is toward the left of the Stage. verticalChange Required. Specifies the vertical offset, in pixels. When verticalChange is greater than 0, the offset is toward the top of the Stage; when verticalChange is less than 0, the offset is toward the bottom of the Stage. Example This handler moves sprite 1 five pixels to the right and five pixels down: -- Lingo syntax on diagonalMove newRect=sprite(1).rect.offset(5, 5) sprite(1).rect=newRect end // JavaScript syntax function diagonalMove() { newRect = sprite(1).rect.offset(5,5); sprite(1).rect = newRect; } open() (Player) Usage -- Lingo syntax _player.open({stringDocPath,} stringAppPath)
