|---|---|---|---|
| cursorKeyIncrement | Measurement Unit (Number or String) (range: 0.001 - 100) | r/w | The distance to move a specified object when an arrow key is pressed. (Range depends on the measurement unit. For points: 0.001 to 100; picas: 0p0.001 to 8p4; mm: 0 to 35.278; cm: 0 to 3.5278; inches: 0 to 1.3889; ciceros: 0c0.001 to 7c9.839) |
| eventListeners | EventListeners | readonly | A collection of event listeners. |
| events | Events | readonly | A collection of events. |
| guideSnaptoZone | number (range: 1 - 36) | r/w | The range (in pixels) within which an object snaps to guides. (Range: 1 to 36) Note: Snapping occurs only when guides are shown. |
| horizontalCustomPoints | number (range: 4 - 256) | r/w | The distance (in points) between major tick marks on the horizontal ruler. (Range: 4 to 256) Valid only when horizontal measurement units is custom. |

r/w | The measurement unit for the horizontal ruler and other horizontally-measured spaces such as grid columns, horizontal offsets, column gutters, or others. |
| isValid | bool | readonly | Returns true if the object specifier resolves to valid objects. |
| parent | Application Document |
readonly | The parent of the ViewPreference (a Application or Document). |
| pointsPerInch | number (range: 60 - 80) | r/w | The number of points per inch, typically 72. (Range: 60 to 80) |

Methods
Instances
EventListener addEventListener (eventType:
string, handler:
varies[, captures:
bool=false])
Adds an event listener.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| eventType | string | The event type. |
| handler | File JavaScript Function | The event handler. Can accept: File or JavaScript Function. |
| captures | bool | This parameter is obsolete. (Optional) (default: false) |
Array
of ViewPreference getElements ()
Resolves the object specifier, creating an array of object references.
bool removeEventListener (eventType:
string, handler:
varies[, captures:
bool=false])
Removes the event listener.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| eventType | string | The registered event type. |
| handler | File JavaScript Function | The registered event handler. Can accept: File or JavaScript Function. |
