Naming Objects

   

---

Before you can use objects you must name or identify them. For example, let's say you have three kinds of fruit in front of you: an apple, an orange, and a banana . All three are objects that can be called by name, and they all belong to a bigger group or class called fruit. They would be named as follows :

 Friut.apple Fruit.orange Fruit.banana 

NOTE

Creating an instance name for an object or a class is very similar to the process of creating an instance name for a symbol.

Once you create an instance name, use the keyword new to create a unique name for the object. You can find this keyword in the Actions panel's toolbox. Any object that requires you to make a new instance of that object will include the new command. You can also create your own objects by using existing objects and properties and calling certain functions.
