C++	public value class Vector4 sealed
JScript	In JScript, you can use structures, but you cannot define your own.

Members Table

The following table lists the members exposed by the object.

Fields

Field	Description
W	Retrieves or sets the w component of a 4-D vector.
X	Retrieves or sets the x component of a 4-D vector.
