ActionScript 2.0 :: Change Flash Movie Size During Runtime?
Sep 5, 2006
I have seen this on some site, so there must be a way of doing this. How do you dynamically change a flash movies dimension during runtime? For example, the forum nugget is working on I noticed that the height of the flash forum dynamically grows as the thread getslonger...because I can see my browser scroll bars appear. How can this be achieved?? his seems mind buggling to me, because you have to set a flash movies stage dimensions before publishing and the html has the flash dimesions too, so I don't get how this is being done

I want to have my character walk around in a faux 3-d space using the arrow keys on the keyboard. When the character walks away it becomes smaller and when it walks closer it becomes larger. I have put together a script that pretty much does what I want - except the ratio of the height and width of the MovieClip do not stay the same. It becomes fatter as it walks away and skinner as it comes closer. Here is my main script:
[Code]...
I think the problem is with the operator here: ratio = this._height/this._width; The slash between "height" and "this" seems to be what is giving me trouble. Maybe I should be writing some other script entirely? I am not very good at script writing.

I have external swf imported and put it into movie clip like bellow,
stage.showDefaultContextMenu = false;
Security.allowDomain("*");
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
[Code]....
But when I activate the last line in function(animMC.height = 200;) and publish, I don't see movie clip anymore. As a movie clip I thought I have full control as a movie clip should be, but is it still more limited control as swf or loader?

I've got a complicated shape in a MovieClip.Runtime i want to change the stroke width of this Shape depending on a size ratio.
How can I change this property without redrawing the entire Shape with the drawing API (almost impossible, is a map with very detailed borders) ?

I have a main character in my Box2d game that has a b2PolygonShape collision. When the player crouches I am changing the body to a smaller b2PolygonShape. The logic works fine, but when I change the size (height) of the collision the character starts to fall.
Is it possible to create the new body with an offset (localPosition?) so the position of the body stays the same? This way I can play the crouch animation and change the collision without worrying that the position will change and make my sprite go bananas.

I want to reduce the size of Swf using the size mentioned in the object tag of html. Same swf file size can be different for different request.
The problem is this if we reduce the size all control in swf reduced according to the change in swf size. But we want the buttons and one more graphics remain same size for any change in size of swf file. How can we make it ..

Whenever I link a set of movieclips together with the bone tool which are inside a containing movieclip, and also set the type to "runtime" instead of "authortime", I get this error when published.
"Runtime symbols with skewed matrices should be wrapped in a movie clip" What does it mean? I need the type to be set to runtime so I can use scripting with it..

I need to change the stage size dynamically. When I try to do this?
size_mc.onRelease = function(){
trace(Stage.height);
Stage.height += 100;
trace(Stage.height);}
It comes always the current stage size.

I created a simple program that displays the current time on the screen.
When I embed this object on a web page, it takes the whole screen leaving a lot of blank space. To avoid this I tried setting the height and width using two methods:
1) I did <embed src="time.swf" **height="100"** **width="100"**>
2) I tried stage.scaleX=.5;
stage.scaleY=.5;
But both of these solutions also decrease the size of my text.
So, my question is that is there a way to decrease the dimensions of the swf file, without scaling the text and other components in flash

I'm totally new to flash, and I'm trying to build a very simple app. I have one as file in which I defined my class which inherent from Sprite, with the name mySprite. I have a fla which is of the mySprite class, and a size of 400x400(I must assign a size when define the fla). my question is, when this flash is launched, I want to read some data from outside (width&height) and change the flash windows size to these specified size. I tried many ways, but can't succeed. Every time the flash is launched, window size is 400x400.

Is there a way to change a popup window size that has an swf embedded in it without loading a new page? here is the example: [URL] click the open window and the pop up opens up at 550 x 402 with an html page. The html page has an embedded swf, flash music player. All to the way to the right, there is a minimize button that will (hopefully) minimize the window to 550x 180 with out disterbing the player. This is my issue. So can it be done without loading an new page and not altering the players progress?

I made a flash application that gets the geolocation of a viewer ( city, state) and I'm trying to figure out how I could make the font smaller to fit in the container that I have it in depending on how big the name of the city is. For example, "Detroit" may fit, but "Los Angeles" may need to be a smaller font.

Does anyone know how to trace out the frame rate that a swf is currently playing at?I've tried creating two date objects on adjacent frames, running the getTime() method on each and subtracting the difference but it seems to be the same regardless of what I set the movie's frame rate to in the property inspector...I am basically trying to monitor the performance of an animation at runtime and make adjustments on the fly based on how fast or slow the movie is playing.

I have made multiple movies compiled in flash player 6.0 with AS 1.0. Now the problem is that when i compile the movie with the new compiler for Flash 7 under AS 1.0, there are a lot of runtime errors. There are no error messages, just screw ups during runtime. But if played with Flash Player 7, it works.
For example kirupa's volume control with slider doesn't work. So I am just wondering what script changes i need to make. I have tried declaring my variables and making them case sensitive. But there are still problems. I just need some generalizations on what I should do. For me compiling under 7.0 is enticing becuase of the speed enhancements for the 30% of ppl who do have the new player.

I am editing my website, a full flash site bought from Template Monsters and it seem there is a problem with screen resolution. When i publish the fla in flash only, it fits the screen exactly with no scroll bar but when i publish in html the flash content is bigger than screen size and menu bar stays outside the screen in the way that i have to scroll down to see menu contents and tabs.In order to make this site more user friendly I have tried to resize the screen to a smaller but seems to be not a good idea. I have also tried to use different .js and includes in order to solve the problem but still not giving the result i am looking for.

I am a newbie in Flash CS3. How to resize the width of of a movie clip according to the size the size of dynamic text inside it. I did it by creating a text field 'myText' and then converted it to a MovieClip symbol and named the MovieClip as myClip. The text in myText is assigned at run-time and its width changes according to the text.
I did it as follows:-
myClip.myText.selectable = false;
myClip.mouseChildren = false;
myClip.useHandCursor = true;
myClip.buttonMode = true;
myClip.myText.width = myClip.myText.textWidth + 5;
On doing this I find the clickable area changes according to the size of the text field but the text field doesn't appear at all.
