stroke.length

#### Availability

Flash MX 2004.

#### Usage

stroke.length

#### Description

Property; a string that specifies the length of a hatch line. This property is available only if the stroke.style property is set to hatched (see stroke.style (../Stroke_object/stroke20.md)). Acceptable values are "equal", "slight variation", "medium variation", and "random". (The value "random" actually maps to "medium variation".)

#### Example

The following example sets the length property to slight for a stroke style of hatched:

javascript

var myStroke = fl.getDocumentDOM().getCustomStroke(); 

myStroke.style = "hatched";

myStroke.curve = "straight"; 

myStroke.space = "close"; 

myStroke.jiggle = "wild"; 

myStroke.rotate = "free"; 

myStroke.length = "slight variation"; 

myStroke.hatchThickness = "thin";

fl.getDocumentDOM().setCustomStroke(myStroke);
