I am very new to Flash, but I have created a new webpage using Adobe Flash CS5.5, and there are a few things I am unsure about, one of them being centering the flash document on a webpage.My project is 1000x563 pixels big, and when I hit F12 from Flash to export to an HTML, it puts my project to the top left of the page, as shown below.
View 5 RepliesWe have recently made a new Flash website for our company (URL...). The Flash module itself is 800 pixels tall. We have CSS that centers a div horizontally and vertically that's wrapped around the Flash module (you can see the source of URL...) and when someone is on a browser on a netbook or a smaller laptop (sub 15-inch, generally), they don't have enough vertical resolution (after the real estate used by the Windows start bar and browser toolbars) to see the entire site.Whether you view the html page I've made (again, at URL...) or you view the Flash module itself (URL...) the top of the Flash module clips off the top of the browser. (To see the problem if you don't have a small laptop, just don't maximize your browser window and shrink it's vertical height.)I understand why my CSS is behaving the way it is, due to the nature of the negative top margin, but is there any way to solve this issue?

View 1 RepliesI'm having a hard time setting up my website page to center (vertical and horizontal) my flash movie in a browser. I was finally able to get it to fit screen no matter what resolution, but it looks more to me like it's aligning itself top/left.

I have a 2037px wide flash movie that I purposely made that wide so that it would take up just about any screen.
What I'm trying to do is simply center it and basically hide the overflow on smaller screens when the movie appears on the end user's monitor. I can't get it to center, however, as it always just wants to align to the left. I don't want to use the 100% feature because that distorts the movie.
I've tried using the "overflow: hidden; text-align: center;" CSS feature, to no avail. Is there a way in CSS to make this work? Do I need to use javascript or something? If so, which script do I use?

View 7 RepliesI have the following problem. I have an MovieClip in a holder MC. I would like to turn the inner MC X with 'rotation' parameter, and still keep it in the holder mc to the right and bottom of the holder MC reference point.

Basically a function that takes any X rotated in any degrees through X.rotation = ... and puts it back in place in the holder MC.
View 3 RepliesI have a Flash page that is a bit off center on smaller resolution screens. If the site was centered, and the sides were cut off, then all would be well. But the site starts in the top-left corner, so some content is clipped. I know the problem can be solved in JavaScript, but I'm wondering if there is a more elegant, possibly CSS-way,

I have a script on my first frame to have a full browser tiled background. I also have a script to preload my file. My problem is they don't seem to be working well together. The preloader works but the full browser script doesn't center my file until I resize the browser and then it snaps to the center.
View 2 RepliesI can't get the content to center correctly when the browser window is resized. Despite efforts of trying to make the design work within all screen resolutions, it still does not fit correctly on smaller ones. What I want is for the content to center itself completely - Right now it only centers from left to right. Here is the code.
Code:
// Aligns everything to the top left side
Stage.align = "TL";
// Disables the movie from scaling
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";

The first thing I tried was simply adding all_mc._y = Stage.width/2; to the start values and the sizeListener, which worked until you clicked on the navigation and the all_mc movieclip is moved to a new X coordinate. It moves fine, but when you try to resize the browser, it jumps the movieclip back up to the top and moves back down again.
I want to use a flash preloader for my php website. I have seen some javascript examples; but I want something attractive and cool. So I want use flash preloader which will show the percentage of the website loaded.My website is kinda heavy(with lot of images). It looks bad when the contents load. So I want to show a flash preloader while the site loads.

I have not included a preloader yet, so it will be blank for a few moments before it loads.

all_mc is the movie clip that holds all of the website content. Pressing the buttons on the navigation makes the entire movieclip shift up and down.

It moves fine, but when you try to resize the browser, it jumps the movieclip back up to the top and moves back down again.

I have a full flash website built using Flash (of course). So I publish it using flash itself. But I am having a difficult time aligning it in center with its original dimension. I dun want my swf stretch out or scale at all. I want to display it without scaling and also in the center of the browser window.
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP;
I did try these and also tried changing my publish settings but didn't work.
I'm working on a fullscreen application that doesn't run flash on the browser. Running Flash player 10. When you open the file, I have fscommand to run fullscreen, the flash file is built at 1280 x 800, and I have an image (menu screen) that starts off the flash file. I'm trying to find a way to center the image to the native SCREEN resolution, not the flash resolution. Is that possible?
I have this code running on the menu MC:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
this._x = Stage.width /2;
this._y = Stage.height /2;
}
I've tried other variations of this, and no luck. On my 1280x800 native resolution monitor, it's great. Tested it, and it works. However, if I run the same file on a 1920x1080 monitor, the image is on the lower right hand corner. Also, the image at the moment has a center anchor point, but I'm sure you realized by my simple code. Also, just escaping the fullscreen mode, and scaling the window also screws up the formula. So I'm not sure what I can do to make it dead center no matter the screen res, or size of window. The reason I need to do this, is also because there are times where I have to change the flash resolution, and I don't want to go into the image everytime to adjust the center.
Here's an easy one: how can I center text that I'm loading inside CDATA tags from an XML file into my .swf?
Everything I've tried in terms of tags and text-align:center divs hasn't worked. Is this possible to do without editing the .fla?
I have this flash website where i use Stage.scaleMode to dynamically resize the swf depending on the browser size. (i use A.script 2.0). So the width takes the whole screen and the height is scaled in proportion. My design is in a landscape format. It works fine, except that i need the swf to also be vertically centered in the browser Window. (explanantion - on certain screens, example a 19 inch PC monitor which is quite "squared", my flash movie expands the whole way across the width, and the height in proportion, but as my design is in landscape, i have a big empty space in the browser below the swf.)
This is how it is: This is how it should be:
Here is the code:
stop();
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale"
Stage.align = "TL";

I am using the kirupa xml foto gallery and I am loading different sized images... if they would load nicely centered the problem is solved... (not to stage width/height..!!) The movieclip "picture" has to load the images centered from its own registration point so that it can be placed anywhere on the stage.... now its loads the images from aka left top...

I have a centered swf, I want it to stop centering if the swf reaches the side nav so they dont overlap.
function Center(mc) {

this stops the centering when it hits 500, but it stops all centering because it's stuck on 500.
I have used the centering pop up technique, but my problem lies with the boreders.

I have a movieClip that starts out a a specific scale. I then tween the images properties and as it tweens it also scales again. What I'm trying to do as it tweens and scales its obviously changes the width and height of the movieClip. So I'm trying to constantly keep the clips position in the center of the stage.
I'm using tweenMax and I tired an update event so I could keep checking the width and height of the clip as it scales and then using this code to center it but it doesn't seem to be centering the image. On other thing to note is my MovieClip is using its top left corner as the registration point.

I'm told that the following chunk of script will center the stage on resize, but not knowing much of anything about actionscript,
myListener = new Object(); myListener .onResize = function () { ... } Stage.addListener( myListener ); // later ... Stage.removeListener( myListener );
