contextSettings​
RequiredDescription
The opacity and blending-related configurations of the object.
transformedBounds​
OptionalDescription
An enclosing rectangle for the object. This property stores information about the object after the matrix transformation.
Type
outlineMaskBy​
RequiredDescription
A list of outline masks applied to the object, clipped by the intersection of their outlines. The items in the list are object IDs of the masks.
Type
Array<string>
maskType​
RequiredDescription
The mask type of the object.
Type
integer
Value
enum: the value of this property must be equal to one of the following values:
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
0 | not a mask |
1 | outline mask |
2 | alpha mask |
styleEffectMaskArea​
RequiredDescription
How the style and visible of the mask object affect the area of the mask.
Type
integer
Value
enum: the value of this property must be equal to one of the following values:
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
0 | The style and visible of the mask object do not affect the area of the mask, which depends on its bounds. |
1 | The style of the mask object does not affect the area of the mask, while the visible does. |
2 | The style and visible of the mask object do affect the area of the mask. |
maskShowType​
OptionalDescription
How the mask object is displayed.
Type
integer
Value
enum: the value of this property must be equal to one of the following values:
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
0 | depend on its style. (Default value for outline mask.) |
1 | only display its bounds. (Default value for alpha mask when its alphaType equals 0.) |
2 | do not display. (Default value for other conditions.) |
overflow​
RequiredDescription
How to display the child element of the object when it overflows its container.
Type
integer
Value
enum: the value of this property must be equal to one of the following values:
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
1 | hidden. Anything outside the scope of the container will be cropped and invisible. |
2 | visible. Contents outside the scope of the container will not be cropped and will be visible. |
3 | scrolled. Content that is outside the container's scope is cropped, and a scrollbar is displayed to view the content that is beyond the container's boundaries. |
cornerSmoothing​
OptionalDescription
Smoothness of rounded corners. Range: [0, 1].
0 is the default value, indicating no smoothing for rounded corners.
Type
number
overrideKey​
OptionalDescription
Used to be associated with the object by symbol instances for overriding its attributes. Check the objectId in the OverrideValue for details.
If overrideKey exists, find a symbol master through upward traversal (which could be the object itself); overrideKey is unique within the symbol master.
Type
string
horizontalConstraint​
OptionalDescription
Horizontal constraints for the object.
Default value is 1.
Type
verticalConstraint​
OptionalDescription
Vertical constraints for the object.
Default value is 1.
Type
resizesContent​
OptionalDescription
How child objects behave when the object is resized.
Type
integer
Value
enum: the value of this property must be equal to one of the following values:
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
0 | If the current object contains children (suitable for paths with boolean operations), the current object serves as the starting point. For each child, if the object chain includes a frame or symbol without a layout, the constraints on the child object are applied (ignoring constraints for groups and top-level paths with boolean operations). Otherwise, scaling is applied. |
1 | Force child objects to have fixed positions and sizes. |
2 | Apply child object constraints. (Default value.) |
keepShapeWhenResize​
OptionalDescription
False: When resizing occurs, the object scales according to the horizontalConstraint and verticalConstraint. (Default value.)
True: When resizing occurs, the object itself maintains its angle, and the center position is scaled. The scaling occurs along both the length and width directions.
Type
boolean
variableDefs​
OptionalDescription
A list of variables that can be used by children.
Type
Array<VariableDef>styleEffectBoolean​
OptionalDescription
How the style of the object affects the region participating in a Boolean operation with another object.
Type
integer
Value
enum: the value of this property must be equal to one of the following values:
| Value | Explanation |
|---|---|
0 | ignore style(default value): The region in which an object participates in a Boolean operation is independent of its style. |
1 | If the object is a path and the path has borders without fills, then the borders will be used as a region to participate in the Boolean operation calculation. If the object is a text and the text has borders without fills, then the object will be ignored during the Boolean operation. In other cases, it behaves the same as ignore style. |
class​
RequiredType
string
Value
constant: the value of this property must be equal to:
"symbolInstance"
radius​
OptionalDescription
The radius values correspond to the corners in the following order: left-top, right-top, right-bottom, left-bottom.
Default value is [0, 0, 0, 0].
Type
Array<number>
Value
maximum number of items: the maximum number of items for this array is: 4
minimum number of items: the minimum number of items for this array is: 4
variableAssignments​
OptionalDescription
Reassign the value of the variable defined in symbol master.
Type
Array<VariableAssign>
