Flash Player 6 offers a relatively large amount of information about
and control over the runtime environment.
ActionScript's
System.capabilities object
returns information about the Player and
the computer on which it is running, such as the operating system,
language, and audio capabilities. The System
object also allows you to control some elements of the Player such as
the right-click menu under Windows (Ctrl-click on the Macintosh) and
the Settings dialog box. The Stage object
controls the scaling and alignment of the movie within the Player.
