Movie Controller Functions / Editing Movies

MCEnableEditing

The MCEnableEditing function allows your application to enable and disable editing for a movie controller. Once editing is enabled for a controller, the user may edit the movie associated with the controller.

pascal ComponentResult MCEnableEditing (MovieController mc,
                                        Boolean enabled);

mc

Specifies the movie controller for the operation. You obtain this
identifier from the Component Manager's OpenComponent or OpenDefaultComponent function, or from the NewMovieController function (described on page 2-28).

enabled

Specifies whether to enable or disable editing for the controller. Set this parameter to true to enable editing; set the enabled parameter to false to disable editing.

DESCRIPTION

By default, editing is turned off when you create a new movie controller. If you want to allow the user to edit, you must use the MCEnableEditing function to enable editing.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

Note that a movie controller component may not support editing. Therefore, your application should check the component result from this function before continuing with other movie-editing operations.
