ActionScript 2.0 :: Stage Size 100%, But Where's The Scroll Bar?
Sep 4, 2005
I would like to use a tiled background in a flash movie like this guy did It looks like he is accomplishing this by setting the width and height of the embedded flash movie to 100% in the HTML. The only problem on this site is that when the browser window is smaller than the flash stage, no scroll bar appears. Not too great for usability on smaller monitors. Is is possible for flash to tell the browser to show a scrollbar if the browser's viewport is too small to see the entire stage?
I'm trying to get an object to increase in size the lower it goes down the stage, and decrease in size the high it moves up the stage.
It only needs to increase or decrease by a small amount. Basically, it's for a game character. To ad realism to his movements, it would be nice to have this feature.
I'm working on a slideshow where I'm calling in photos from an xml file. How do I tell AS to resize the stage according to photo dimensions? Would I need to list the dimensions in the xml file? If so, how would I pull that into the fla file with AS?
I have a flex tree control bound to an xml data from the database. I have item renderers for the tree items. My concern is, when my tree item size is huge, if I scroll using the mouse, it scrolls in 4-5 items at a time. I need it to scroll item by item. When it scrolls 4-5 items at a time, there seems to be a rendering issue as I have overriden lot of properties of treeitemrenderer and also the custom control i have put into the item renderer
I'm making a mockup for a client and I need to Load the .swf with the exact stage size so the graphic elements do not float outside the loaded movies stage area. [URL]Basic load code I'm using...
I have finally found a scroll bar that I really like the look of, made by Oringe (thanks knvb1123, thread: http:[url].... It can be downloaded here: http:[url].....
This blur scroller is set to adapt to the size of the main window, as far as I understand. I would like to know if there is a way to put the scrolling area to a fixed size rather than using the height of the main window to scroll? I basically want to use this scrollbar in a fixed size area of say 300 width and 400 height.
this must be possible but i can't find any info on it. how do i increase the size of the combobox component scroll bar? i know it's a list component but i can't figure out how to set it's size. i want to use it with a touch screen and it's much too small.
I made a flash website with photo galleries using a component that I bought online. The component is loading the image in a thumbnail scroll bar via a XML file and the full size image display in a UILoader. So far nothing special. But when I reach a certain amount of pictures in the gallery, the scroll panel get stuck while loading and doesn't display the full size image. Then the thumbnails don't react at all.
Looking for an example, of a custom scroll bar inside flash that affects all content? Like, if stage's height goes less than 400, it appears a custom scroll bar, that scrolls all the way through stage's height, up and down!!! with mousewheel function too.
Basically, I'm designing a site for 800x600 and almost all of my stages are 800x600, but because of an abundance of text, I streched one stage to 800x1365.
I realize I could just put the text in a text field that would fit in the original 600 but I'd rather not to avoid the weird look when viewed on a computer with a bigger screen resolution.
How can I add a regular browser scroll bar to my SWF that will remain on the edge of the screen regardless of resolution and scroll down the entire stage?
I'm not too sure what category this comes into, it may end up being an html/css issue not flash!I'm looking to create a flash website embedded into html. I want my flash stage height to adjust to the browser height but if the loaded flash content (images and text) height is greater then the current browser height i want the html scroll bars to appear. Each page in the website will have different heights
In the attached file you can see 2 .Fla files a CS5 and CS4, they are the same! I have a main global scrollbar which compares to the other scrollbars that are loaded from the countries drop down menu on the top left..(you can see it clearly) Scrollbars work fine...however... i do need the user to be able to scroll simultaneously the scroll bars either with a button somewhere on stage or with another main bar..
I created a custom scroll bar, you can see it here [URL] My scroll dragger is not working. First, I have removed all of my code except my scroll bar code and my scroll dragger still doesn't work. If I remove all of my stage elements and leave my custom scroll bar on the stage, the scroll dragger works. If I try to add an object back onto the stage the scroll dragger stops working. It doesn't seem to matter what object I add back to the stage. There are no compile errors or output errors to fix. I even created a new fla and I am getting the same issue. Adding movie clips from the library to the stage prevents the dragger from working. I am really puzzled by this. I am using Flash CS3. I have added a zip file of my fla.
I have created a flash project in CS5 and I have set the size of the stage to 500 x 400. When I view it in the flash player as the swf it plays fine. What I want to be able to do is get the swf file to fill the screen with the image no matter what size the end user scales the window of the Flash player too.
i have a bit of a problem with a number var. On opening stage (875 px) the var value is 368; when i resize the stage i need the var to grow till 578 max.
I'm using Flash CS3 and wish to create a movie where the stage is a certain size but the actual content of the movie extends further than the stage. The user will be able to drag the stage from left to right to show hidden parts of the movie. Similar to the idea of a horizontal scrolling image gallery but without the scrollbar (see attached for example image).
I am doing one completely dynamic interface which is control by an admin module. what i want to do is to control the stage size by this admin module.When i press submit in the admin module it will generate one xml file which is connected to the flash flie, and what ever the size is mention in that xml that has to reflect in that flash file. I don't want any supporting file only one swf. I don't know whether it is possible to adjust the stage size dynamically on fly.
I've been making some banners for my company to be sent to certain profesional magazines. While checking the swfs, we noticed that, when opend directly on a web browser (as swf standalone), it (a) shows all the elements, including those outside stage and (b) gets resiced depending on the screen size.Is there a way to prevent this happening? I mean, is there a scripting/non scripting way to force the swf size to stage size and nothing else so that we don't show anything we shound't?
I want to read width and height from XML and then change the stage size based on these numbers in an EXE file of Flash. Imagine the main size of flash application is for example 1024 x786. I write a code which interact with user as touch screen and all startup data(like image file names and key coordination) come from an XML file. My problem is, for different PCs, I must set the size of application manually. Some touch screens have different ratios like 1280 * 400! The only way is set the stage size on startup the application butstage.staheWidthandstage.stageHeightdont change anything for me.
I got a swf file called 'NW_site_4_diap.swf' centered in my browser with html. At the moment, anything that sticks out from the stage to the surrounding area get's displayed in the browser. Now I'd like to crop the swf file at its stage size. How do I get flash or html to crop all elements to the exact stage size? Here's the html code I used:
HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head>
I am writing an app that, when loaded byt the HTML, could be any size. For example, using SWFObject and the following line: swfobject.embedSWF("Untitled-1.swf", "SMHSWF", "500", "500", "10", "expressInstall.swf", null, params); The problem is I'm having some difficulty finding the size once the SWF is loaded. I've tried the following:
I am importing 4 SWFs from one SWF. I load them in, and addChild them, every 20 seconds. So the first one will be visible for 20 seconds, then I will remove that, and addChild the second loaded SWF, etc. One SWF is 350x200, but the other 3 SWF's are 700x500. If I addChild the 350x200 SWF, it will be surrounded by the huge 700x500 stage size which can't happen for this project. Do I need to change the stage size?
