timeline.removeFrames()

#### Availability

Flash MX 2004.

#### Usage

timeline.removeFrames(\[startFrameIndex \[,endFrameIndex\]\])

#### Parameters

startFrameIndex A zero-based index that specifies the first frame at which to start removing frames. If you omit startFrameIndex, the method uses the current selection; if there is no selection, all frames at the current playhead on all layers are removed. This parameter is optional.
endFrameIndex A zero-based index that specifies the frame at which to stop removing frames; the range of frames goes up to, but does not include, endFrameIndex. If you specify only startFrameIndex, endFrameIndex defaults to the startFrameIndex value. This parameter is optional.

#### Returns

Nothing.

#### Description

Method; deletes the frame.

#### Example

The following example deletes Frame 5 up to, but not including, Frame 10 of the top layer in the current scene (remember that index values are different from frame number values):

javascript

fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().currentLayer = 0;

fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().removeFrames(4, 9);

The following example deletes Frame 8 on the top layer in the current scene:

javascript
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().currentLayer = 0;
fl.getDocumentDOM().getTimeline().removeFrames(7);
