ActionScript 2.0 :: Screen Resolution - How To Scale Page
Jun 10, 2006
I have been playing with this code for a couple of days and I am getting "decent" results but not consistent. Basically I want to get the users resolution and divide it by the optimum resolution and scale the page. What I am trying to attempt is that items stay the same size regardless of resolution. I realize that I will get some distortion but when testing the distortion doesn't seem to effect the overall look of the page. If I stay away from really small fonts I seem ok. Regardless you get some distortion in lower resolution anyways.
Here is the code.
var userResX:Number = System.capabilities.screenResolutionX;
var noXScaleRes:Number = 1440;
var swfXSize:Number = 1000;//stage width
var thisXRes:Number = ((userResX / noXScaleRes) * 100);
var xCntr:Number = (swfXSize / 2) - (((thisXRes * swfXSize) / 100) / 2);
[Code] .....
Now when I test on resolutions with similar aspect ratios 1.7 as the optimum resolution the content scales to respectable "result". But when the aspect ratio is closer to 1 to 1 I don't it squares my content. Since I am handling the x and y separate I am not sure why it would?

Is there any way to scale up stage according to user's screen resolution?
because:
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT; stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
and width: 100% in html document
doesn't work when screen is widther than flash site.
I managed to size up stage in AS2 but I have no idea how to do that in AS3.

I'm developing a Flex application that is designed for screen resolutions of 1280x1024 and more. In the rare case that a projector is used (which usually has a maximum of 1024x768 pixels) I'd like to scale down the application (currently I get lots of scrollbars and clipping).
I've already experimented with the application's properties scaleX and scaleY as well as stage.scaleMode. However, I couldn't quite figure out a way to
render the application without scaling when the application's width and height are larger than certain values use scaling when the width or height are smaller than certain values

The problem that I'm facing is in regards to the width of a sliding menu that I've created. The menu slides based on mouse x position and width of the movie. I would like the menu to fit to the entire screen regardless of the users resolution. I wanted to know if there's a way to detect a users screen width and then adjust the variable for screen width within my actionscript .fla if necessary.

My swf size is approximately 1000x700. If the browser size is smaller than this it needs to scale down but if it is larger I don't want it to scale. Just like this [url]...
I've tried publishing the Flash settings at Scaleefault(Show All) which scales it but I need to stop the scaling upwards at 1000x700.
I'd have thought that I could say in the html if (width<1024){scale;} and if(height<700){scale;}. But it's not working. Should it all be done in the html?

I am developing a flash website that will dynamically fit to the size of the end-users' browser and screen resolution. I have a 2100 X 1400 Background I'd like scaled to 100% of the screen size.
So if the user's resolution is 1680 X 1050, the image would scale to that size.
However, another problem arises - I do not want the image to "stretch" or lose quality, and that it must maintain the same aspect ratio. How can I do this?

[ X ] Problem solved I just came up with something i have some trouble to handle I've tried a couple of solution but none seems to work perfectly
What I'm trying to do is simple, get my flash to go full screen, but whatever resolution the user has, my flash must centers itself with the biggest proportion possible, and two movie clips goes right and left of it, as if they were borders.
I've been able to do this with a simple png, but i was not able with a movieclip where his dimension changes through time. ( i have a tween, so the mc gets really big even though just my stage is displayed)

I have researched this and found lots of information but I am fairly new to actionscript and scripting in general. Here is what I am trying to do. I am working on a site that is already setup and ready to go. What I am creating is a very basic 15 second flash intro/flyer that will show up and eventually redirect to the main site. Like I said this is a very basic flash with basic tweening however my main issue is that we want this one picture to fill up the entire browser window without getting cut off no matter what resolution. I don't care how it is accomplished whether it is actionscript, java,

I'd like to know where to look for documentation on how to make elements that adjust to the site resolution, or what this technique is called.
Like in here (the floating clip on the left upper corner, there is a menu divided into 2 parts like float:left and :right (like I would make this in css))
[URL]
Basically I'd need a menu always aligned to the bottom-center of the page that won't change the size, but the background always stretched proportionally to the width of the page upon resizing.

I have published my Flash site to the web server but I notice that it doesn't display correctly in smaller resolutions (I think the smallest it looks best in is 1024 x 768)... the bottom keeps getting cut off when viewed in any small resolution. I figure this is something that can be corrected in the HTML file so if someone can show me what exactly I need to put into that file, that would be great. My site is here if you need to reference it:[URL]..

I am trying to figure out how to detect screen resolution through Flash.For example i want to move a "movieclip" to a specific point if the height of the screen resolution is smaller than 768.
Actionscript:
if(screen.height < 768){
movieclip._y = 200;
}
I think i should use this property but i don't know how to implement it!
trace(System.capabilities.screenResolutionY);

i was wondering how others have designed applications, such as photo galleries, that automatically adjust to the resolution of the screen on which it's being viewed, as opposed to adding or removing scroll bars to view just a standard, presized bg image, as in HTML.
I assume this is a certain line of ActionScript, but like I said

I have several components who's screen position depends on the resolution of the monitor on which the browser lives.The problem I'm encountering is that the flash.system.Capabilities method pulls the resolution of the primary monitor attached to the computer. In most situations this isn't a problem but on one of my computers, I have a 1680x1050 and a 1440x900. At work, I have a 1920x1200 and a 1680x1050, so if I open the page in a browser on the smaller monitor, things are not centered and my tools panel is completely off to the right of the screen.
I have a block of javascript that I've tried, both in html and through php but the problem is that if I use either httpRequest or urlLoader to grab the html file, I get the source of html and if I try the php script, I get a script block that is attempting to write a cookie. If that page has not been visited prior to loading the flash site, or if cookies are disabled, it never gets written and I'm nowhere.Is there a method that I can use, that doesn't rely on cookies, to detect the resolution of the monitor that the browser is actually on, and not just the resolution of the first monitor?

i would like to create some Flex Desktop Application that will be always in front of other applications (appWindow.alwaysInFront = true). It should looks like tiny bar at the top of the screen (eg. width = screenWidth, height = 50px). I know how to do that. But I have problem with other applications - when i maximize them, they are under my application. Is there any way how to say to the system, that maximized resolution for other apps is other than default?

My move is getting dynamically resized to whatever the computer's screen resolution is set. I'm placing a button in the lower left hand corner that always needs to be flush left and bottom. Now on my computer, I can get it there just by putting in
ActionScript Code:
minimizebtn.y=(stage.stageHeight)-220-(minimizebtn.height);
Clearly, this bit of code will only work for my computer's resolution: 1440x900. I've tested it on other machines and if they, too, have 8:5 ratio like mine, they look pretty good. Not so much on a say, 4:3 ratio display. I know I need to get the aspect ratio and then place my minimize btn's y coordinate.
One thing I'm not clear on: why I set my button to x=0; and it will sit flush left, but won't place my button in the right spot with:
ActionScript Code:
(stage.stageHeight)-(minimizebtn.height);
Currently stage.stageWidth=Capabilities.screenResolutionX;
and stage.stageHeight=Capabilities.screenResolutionY;
