ColorKey Property

This component is available for use in the Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 operating systems. It may be altered or unavailable in subsequent versions.

The ColorKey property sets or retrieves the color key used in closed captioning.

Syntax

[ iColorKey = ] MSWebDVD.ColorKey

Return Values

Returns an integer value representing the color to use as a transparent background for closed-captioned text. The default value in 256 colors is magenta, and off-black in any other color depth.

Remarks

This property is read/write. This property applies only to the closed-captions, if any exist, not to the subpicture stream.
