& RETURN & _player.serialNumber
member("User Info").text = displayString
end
// JavaScript syntax
function prepareMovie() {
var displayString = _player.userName + "\n" + _player.organizationName
+ "\n" + _player.serialNumber;
member("User Info").text = displayString;
}

Description
3D element, model property, and face property; the object used to define the appearance of the
