is their a scale function or class so that when i strech a movieclip (while editing in flash and while running the swf) that the clips specific contents do not stretch to the clip legnth but they "stick" to the clip edge? like:
Code:
Xmovieclip._x = _parent._width - Xmovieclip._width;
but Xmovieclip doesnt scale when its parent is scaled.
This is a feature I have wanted ever since I first used Flash 4, and I could have sworn that when I read about CS4's new feature, "stretching" the timeline was one! If it's in there, I can't for the life of me figure out how. it's possible to "stretch" a selection of keyframes or not?
Specifically what I mean is this: Say I have an animation with many keyframe tweens in it, and it last 100 frames. Then I decide I need to slow it down and last 200 frames, rather than reposition every keyframe, I would like to select the whole thing and then "scale" left or right and stretch everything to fit 200 frames.
I've created a slideshow with images fading in and out. After competing it, I've decided that I want each the whole thing to run a little longer. Short of changing the FPS, is there a way to stretch the timeline?
View 1 RepliesThe problem I am having is that I cannot get my swf file to scale to fit all windows.It fits the stand aspect ratios but widescreens get the black bars on the left and right of the screen (black is set for my stage color). Is there a way to have swf's be displayed stretched horizontally for widescreens without having just the stage be stretched?[code]
View 1 RepliesIs there a way to do a global timeline stretch in CS4 ?
Basically I need to change the animation speed from 12 fps to 25 fps - but I dont wont the movie to play twice as fast, and I don't want to have to manually move each key frame to fix it because it will take forever!
Any quick way to make a 1280x1024 swf be resized to any resolution (down to 800x600 and up to 1280x1024)? This is the site: [URL]
View 1 RepliesHad a problem stretching the flash file to fill the screen in a projector movie. It is not made in proportion with the standard screen sizes. Is there a quicky way of doing this, without having to go into each element and resizing it. Its a huge file with a lot of cross referencing happening, and _root is used liberally everywhere.(We have made a screensaver of the same file using screensaver factory 3, and it does the stretch easily)
View 1 RepliesI put together this little photo gallery tonight, and overall, I'm content with how it works, but there's one thing that bothers me - unless you have a super big monitor, the scroll bar is always at the side of the screen.
Is there a way to keep the stage relatively small (550px or so) until a vertical picture comes up, and then stretch the swf to say 800px? I've used full screen Flash before, but when I do that, instead of forcing the scroll bar to appear, it just cuts off the image.
Note: Yes, this problem could be solved simply by not doing it in Flash, but eventually I plan to append this to a portfolio of sorts (which will be in Flash) and don't want to make it an external link.
I am loading an image in a back mc stretched to 100% of the stage width and height. Everything works fine except in fullscreenmode - the image does not resize to fit the new stage width and height. Here is the code:

var LoadingObject = new MovieClipLoader();
var NewObject = new Object();
NewObject.onLoadInit = function(mc:MovieClip) {

So I created an animation with a guy swing his left arm back and forth. The problem is his arm is swinging too fast. Is there any way I can extend the whole action, rather than deleting all the keyframes and redoing it?
View 1 Repliesurl...Now click at "add image" and load any image.. The image will be shown on the shirt and the blue border shown around the image comes by-default or is it a movieclip? Secondly the image itself is a movieclip or external swf? And i know that movieclip has rotate and scaleX,Y properties that can work here but it seems that these properties are not used?? the script is rotating and stretching it due to container default properties.

View 1 RepliesI have a background with a bitmap fill in it. The background is just a rectangle [drawRect(0,0,stage.stageWidth,stage.stageHeight)]. It get's a repeated bitmap fill and everything works fine.My problem is whe the stage is resized. If I simply set the height and width of the rectangle the fill gets stretched (even when I re-apply the fill). If I redraw the rectangle and re-apply the fill everything works fine.it.
View 2 RepliesI used this script: greengrass._xscale = Stage.width; But I can tell based on the gradient i applied to my fill of that greengrass MC that it's almost double it's size in width and I think it's going past the stage's width. Is there a script to make the greengrass the exact width of the stage and to not go beyond it?

I am still making some language flashcards. there are about 20 on the page. when i click the card it is supposed to 'flip' so you can see the translation. the first card does pretty well but then as I continue to the next cards, the tween becomes worse and worse. for some reason as the card flips, its dimensions get thrown off and it becomes really wide or really tall. I want the flip to be a strictly horizontal flip over the y axis. What am I doing wrong?
View 1 RepliesI think this might be a tough one: Is it possible to stretch the playback of an MP3 file using Actionscript? Time stretch is when you slow a sound down but don't change its pitch. Basically, it works by chopping up the sound into milliseconds and splicing duplicates of the bits in, thereby stretching the sound.
View 1 RepliesI have used Ultimate 3D Carousel AS2 which is a great little flash script for 3D menus and integrated it with a script i found for getting the background to stretch full screen.

View 7 RepliesI am trying to use a matrix to stretch an image along its X and Y axis. My code looks like this:
Mat = new Matrix();
Mat.createBox(MyScaleX, MyScaleY);
MyBitmapData.draw(MyDisplayObject, Mat);
When I change MyScaleX, there is no change to the scale. However, the image location gets shifted. When I change MyScaleY, both x and y get scaled. I have also tried to use:
Mat = new Matrix();
Mat.scale(MyScaleX, MyScaleY);
MyBitmapData.draw(MyDisplayObject, Mat);[ code]....
I have:
- a flash movie with 300x20px dimensions
- a dynamic textfield
- xml data parsed into the textfield
Now I'm trying to scale the height of the movie/stage to the height of the textfield after the xmldata was parsed in. I've tried
stage._height = textField._height.
I'm loading an image into an empty movie clip on the stage.
is there a way that if the user rolls over this image it will then increase in size (say from 50x50 to 75x75)?
I want to have a background movieclip of my SWF stretch to fill the browser window. I know there is a way to detect the size of the browser window in ActionScript, but I am unsure how to tell a movieclip to use those dimensions. I don't need to worry about changing the proportion of the movie clip as it is just a solid color
View 1 RepliesI am working on a geoboard/pegboard project in flashMX, in which I want to stretch a rubberband kind of element. In that there are lines, on which if pressed at any point of that line, another handle shows up, and by dragging that handle, the line on which it was been pressed, stretches. and this way, the shape of the band can be changed, stretched etc.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create in Flex a Tile view that shows some images that a user has. The images don't have the same size, some are small and some are big.
What I'm trying to do is to use a List and create an ItemRenderer that has an Image property which displays the user images (the images are passed to the source property of the Image Object), I want the big images to scale down to the size of the tile so I set the 'scaleContnet' property of the Image Object to true, but this causes the small images to scale up to the size of the tile, this is not the behavior I want.
all the images are Embeded into Class objects and are passed as arguments to the ItemRenderer, how can I know in the ItemRenderer if I need to set the 'scaleContnet' property of the Image Object to true (for big images) or false (for small images)?
Loading in an FLV. Partly works but the video shows up around half the size of the original. I've poked around endlessly with the Adobe Media Encoder and I've checked and double-checked the size of the orginal video before I encode. why its being scaled down like this?
[Code]....
I am currently using Flex SDK 3 for an enterprise application. We have enabled scaling in the application so that it fits the window. This works great, except for one problem. Text inside of components can get cut off depending on how big/small the application gets scaled. Specifically, I am talking about the Button component and the TabBar component. When text inside a button gets cut off, it actually displays a "..." instead of the missing characters. Which is funny, because often times the missing characters would have taken up less space. The text in the tabs, on the otherhand, just gets cut off arbitrarily.
View 0 RepliesI have a movie which is 1250 by 750. That is the largest it is ever going to be however I scale it down when viewed on smaller screen.

View 1 Replies've been building some website in pure flash with as2, where index.html is only a 100%x100% swf movie without any marginsi didn't expect there was supposed to be a gallery but oh well. our client decided that he wants to have some gallery in his flash website. this of course wouldn't be a problem if the swf weren't scaled but it unfortunately is so everytime it loads an image it is, of course, sacled up/down which produces a really ugly pixelated image (because nobody would want to have his gallery images scaled up 2 times)if i knew there was going to be a gallery, i would export it into html with "match movie" dimensions and dynamically reposition all the objects in the swf but i didn't. and i don't have time to rebuild the damn site againso i'm asking, is there any option for a loaded image that it would not get scaled up/down while the swf(browser window) is? or a variable that tells at how much % is the movie scaled in the browser?(so i could re-scale the images inside flash) i know there is probably not but i'm really desperate
View 1 RepliesBelow is the image my flash file as it is right now on my browser window. I want the black area to stretch all the way to the edge of the browser instead of being confined to the stage size. I can't just simply use html to make black areas to the left and right of the flash document because the black is not there from the beginning but rather stretches itself from a line in the beginning of the movie.
View 5 RepliesI have a 720x576px clip (anamorphic), which I want to encode into a flv with the right aspect ratio (720x405px). In the new flash media encoder, you have three settings.
- Scale to fit
- Black borders
- Change output size
But none of those settings allows me to stretch the video to the right aspect ratio, I always get the file with 720x405, but black borders left and right.
