theButton._xscale
Description
The floating-point _xscale property specifies the width of theButton, relative to its original
width, expressed as a percentage. Its “original width” is the pixel width of its Library
symbol. When the current width of
theButton is the same as its original width, _xscale is
100. An
_xscale of 200 doubles theButton’s original width; an _xscale of 50 halves its orig-
inal width.
Button._xscale is directly analogous to MovieClip._xscale; see that property entry for full
details.
Example
// Double run_btn's width, relative to its Library symbol's width
run_btn._xscale = 200;
