Parameter.Capabilities operator

Description

Returns a Long number (see siCapabilities) which is a bitfield of all the object's capabilities.

For convenience, the three most commonly used Capabilities are exposed directly as properties (Parameter.ReadOnly, Parameter.Animatable and Parameter.Keyable).
