flash.display 

The flash.display package contains the core classes that the Flash Player uses to build visual displays.



Interfaces
 InterfaceDescription
 IBitmapDrawable The IBitmapDrawable interface is implemented by objects that can be passed as the source parameter of the draw() method of the BitmapData class.
 IGraphicsData This interface is used to define objects that can be used as parameters in the flash.display.Graphics methods, including fills, strokes, and paths.
 IGraphicsFill This interface is used to define objects that can be used as fill parameters in the flash.display.Graphics methods and drawing classes.
 IGraphicsPath This interface is used to define objects that can be used as path parameters in the flash.display.Graphics methods and drawing classes.
 IGraphicsStroke This interface is used to define objects that can be used as stroke parameters in the flash.display.Graphics methods and drawing classes.

 GraphicsGradientFill Defines a gradient fill.
 GraphicsPath A collection of drawing commands and the coordinate parameters for those commands.
 GraphicsPathCommand Defines the values to use for specifying path-drawing commands.
 GraphicsPathWinding The GraphicsPathWinding class provides values for the flash.display.GraphicsPath.winding property and the flash.display.Graphics.drawPath() method to determine the direction to draw a path.
 GraphicsShaderFill Defines a shader fill.
 GraphicsSolidFill Defines a solid fill.
 GraphicsStroke Defines a line style or stroke.
 GraphicsTrianglePath Defines an ordered set of triangles that can be rendered using either (u,v) fill coordinates or a normal fill.
 InteractiveObject The InteractiveObject class is the abstract base class for all display objects with which the user can interact, using the mouse, keyboard, or other user input device.
 InterpolationMethod The InterpolationMethod class provides values for the interpolationMethod parameter in the Graphics.beginGradientFill() and Graphics.lineGradientStyle() methods.
 JointStyle The JointStyle class is an enumeration of constant values that specify the joint style to use in drawing lines.
 LineScaleMode The LineScaleMode class provides values for the scaleMode parameter in the Graphics.lineStyle() method.
 Loader The Loader class is used to load SWF files or image (JPG, PNG, or GIF) files.
 LoaderInfo The LoaderInfo class provides information about a loaded SWF file or a loaded image file (JPEG, GIF, or PNG).
 MorphShape The MorphShape class represents MorphShape objects on the display list.
