## Parameter.Capabilities

### 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).

### C# Syntax

    // get accessor
    Int32 rtn = Parameter.Capabilities;

### Examples
