WMode

Syntax

property WMode: WideString;

Description

Gets or sets WMode.

The WMode property defines how the Flash ActiveX control is rendered:

• Window — a child window is created with its own HWND (windowed mode).
• Transparent — windowless mode, allowing rendering over bitmaps with alpha.
• Opaque — renders the control without transparency.

Although this property can be changed, when using F-IN-BOX you should not set it directly. F-IN-BOX manages it automatically:

• When using TFlashPlayerControl, the control works in windowed mode (WMode = Window).
• When using TTransparentFlashPlayerControl, WMode is always set to Transparent.

Therefore, manually setting WMode is unnecessary and may lead to unexpected behavior.
