An mbedlet is a special type of player that has global properties and can perform global actions.
The mbedlet player is always available in the Players window. Set mbedlet properties just as you would set those of any other player: Right-click on the mbedlet player and choose Properties...
You can set the following properties:
Property | Purpose |
SIZE | Controls the height and width of your mbedlet (in pixels). |
BACKCOLOR | Controls the background color of the mbedlet. |
NOICONS | Stops the mBED icons from appearing in the browser while the mbedlet is downloading. |
OPAQUE | Shows the background color of an mbedlet that is used as a sublet; otherwise, the sublet is transparent and the parent mbedlet's color shows. |
Putting a Startup handler on an mbedlet is a very common way to tell the mbedlet to begin its animation. For example, the following handler tells a score to begin playing.
