Problem: I am trying to get a very simple text resize going, for my main content area in a flash website. My aim is to get a button, that on click, increases the text size of a dynamic text field.

This is what I tried, I am very new to Action Script, so excuse the futility of my code.

I was working on something or other today and a question came to me. Would it be possible to make a swf know how big it is, weather embedded into an HTML page, or running in flash player.
So pretty much, I want it to, if it's playing in the stand-alone flash payer, if you stretch out the window vertically, it would know
The first thing I thought of was keeping track of _root._xscale or _root._width, but they didn't work.

I'm trying to trace over a photo at the moment, and it's taking FOREVER with the tiny little brush. It only un-greys itself after I draw a line, but I can only change the size of the line I've just drawn. As soon as I go to draw a new line, it goes straight back to size 0.10.I'd use the pencil tool, because I can change that, but...
