Property Listing

Property	Type	Access	Description
alphaChannelPathNames	Array of String	readonly	A list of the alpha channels stored in the graphic.
appliedPathName	String	read/write	The name of the Photoshop path or alpha channel to use as a clipping path.
clippingType	ClippingPathType ClippingPathType.ALPHA_CHANNEL ClippingPathType.DETECT_EDGES ClippingPathType.NONE ClippingPathType.PHOTOSHOP_PATH ClippingPathType.USER_MODIFIED_PATH	read/write	The clipping path type.
includeInsideEdges	Boolean	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.
insetFrame	Number String	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)
invertPath	Boolean	read/write	If true, inverts the clipping path.
isValid	Boolean	readonly	Returns true if the object specifier resolves to valid objects.
parent	EPS PDF PICT WMF Image ImportedPage	readonly	The parent of the ClippingPathSettings (a Image, EPS, WMF, PICT, PDF or ImportedPage).
paths	Paths Path	readonly	A collection of paths.
photoshopPathNames	Array of String	readonly	A list of the clipping paths stored in the graphic.
properties	Object	read/write	A property that allows setting of several properties at the same time.
restrictToFrame	Boolean	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.
threshold	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.
tolerance	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.
useHighResolutionImage	Boolean	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

PageItem convertToFrame ()

Converts the clipping path to a frame.

ClippingPathSettings getElements ()

Resolves the object specifier, creating an array of object references.

String toSource ()

Generates a string which, if executed, will return the ClippingPathSettings.

String toSpecifier ()

Retrieves the object specifier.
