I'm having a problem with Firefox "flashing" when resizing the window. I've created a fullscreen background. See the site here "ohbehave.dk/beta"
Why is it doing this? Also, do you have any tips on improving performance when resizing?
ActionScript Code:
// -------------------------
// BACKGROUND SETUP
// -------------------------
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
[Code]....
Go to [URL]. Click on "The Photos". It will pop up in a fullscreen window. Try resizing the window and you'll notice that the background is vector and it looks like the scale mode is set to "showAll". BUT, the photos look like they have a separate scale mode set to "noScale". They don't resize.
View 2 RepliesI have a window, the window I programmatically change the size of the window depending on the current view it is displaying. The user cannot resize the window them self, but they can maximize the window.
The problem is if the view is changed while it is maximized, the maximized window size changes, I do not want this, I want it to only change the size of the non-maximized window.
My first thought is to just check if the window is maximized, and if so do not resize it...but the issue there is then when it is restored at a different view then when it was maximized it will not restore to the new size it should be.
By default Firefox opens urls set to 'new window' in a new firefox tab instead. Is there any way to force Firefox to open a new window?This doesn't work in Firefox: it opens a new tab window instead of a real new window. How can I make Firefox open a new window? Without the popup blocker blocking it?

View 1 RepliesI have a Flash movie that loads an html file with a link that should open a new window when clicked. The problem is that Firefox blocks the new window from opening, and I don't know how to solve it. Unfortunately, I have no access to the HTML page where the Flash will be included, so I couldn't use Javascript in that HTML page.This is the code in the HTML file that is loaded into the Flash movie:

Currently I have the code for a button within the swf on our webpage:
Actionscript Code:
on(release){ getURL('javascript:window.close()'); getURL("MyUrl.com","_blank");}
close the web browser (including the swf document) and to open another webpage in a new browser. I have looked around and nothing seems to work with Firefox (because of java security). While I know a user could disable this java security, it is obviously not practical to ask every one who visits the site to so and was curious if there is a way to do this same operation with Firefox?
An old discussion - but still relevant: Does anyone know a script for a button making it able to close a Firefox browser window (on a mac)?
I have tried 1) variants of "javascript:window.close()" and 2) to make the button open a new window in itself, which immediately afterwards closes itself...
I want to know how it's made the effect of smooth transition when the window is resized. I could make MCs get position through AS, scripting:
Actionscript Code:
mc._x;mc._y;mc._width;mc._height;
But I want to know how can I make it moving smoothly when the window is resized.

I've been playing around with a code that keeps a specific object on the center of the movie when the window is re-sized. It works well but here is the issue: I don't want the object to be centered at the very center of the window but on a specific x,y coordinate. How can I modify this code to assign an x,y coordinate so that the object will be "centered" in reference to that coordinate?
Next, is the code. "centerlogo" is the object to be centered and "backgroundImage" is as the name implies the background. I know that what i ask has to do with the part under the "//center content" comment
function init()
{
stage.align=StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode=StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;

my application launches with the stage size of 1000 x 500, 2:1 aspect ratio. the native window has system chrome, which will always be a little taller by a few pixels.how is it possible to only permit a native window to resize proportionately in order to always maintain the 2:1 aspect ratio of the stage?[code]

There is an fscommand function to turn the flash movie into full screen. But is there a way to control where exactly the flash window opens on the desktop (and whether it is maximized - note. NOT full screened).
My client is complaining that whenever he opens the flash movie (exe) it is shifted to the right such that the X window close button is not visible. Obviously he can just drag the window to the left, but you know, you gotta always make your client happy. Is this possible without using an external application like zinc?
i have this problem where I want something (in this case a bitmap) to be positioned in the top right border of my window. But at the same time, I want to allow resizing the window and I want my bitmap to stay in the corner (i.e. move around with the border). So in my document class, I wrote an EventListener to do the job:
Code:
private function resizeHandler(e:Event) {
bg_img.x = stage.stageWidth - bg_img.width;
bg_img.y = 0;
}
But that doesn't work too well: When I make the window wider, the image moves to far to the right (I think twice as fast as it should), so when I make the window wide enough, the image will eventually be outside of the window. On the other hand, when I make the window higher, the image moves down (I think half as fast as the bottom-border). Through some traces, I found out, that when I resize and don't try to move the image, my MovieClip containing the image stays exactly the same size (even though the stage expands) and that when I try to move the image, the MovieClip gets roughly as wide as the stage.
I have this snippet of code that allows the content of my stage to move along with the resizing of my browser window.It seems to work fine for the x coordinate, but when I resize the browser window vertically the movieclip doesn't move with the browser window, and eventually disappears.Why is this working horizontally and not vertically?[code]

View 2 RepliesWith selenium I'm currently automating tests for a website having flash elements for user inputs. While everything works fine when executing these tests on my computer locally, it fails to load the embeded flash if I start selenium on a remote Windows XP machine.
However, the flash just loads fine if I start the tests while I'm logged in via remote desktop.
This leads me to the assumption that whithout any desktop environment loaded or user logged in the firefox window is treated just as though it was minimized or the current tab was inactive, which I know prevents flash from loading until that window/tab is activated.if there is a way to enable firefox to load flash even if it's not currently displayed in an active window?
I have an SWF file embedded in a larger html page.There's a fair bit of communication between javascript and actionscript so I'm using both ExternalInterface.call and ExternalInterface.addCallback in the actionscript code.Communication is all fine, except for one (common) situation on IE.If the user clicks within the SWF file and then resizes the browser window, calls from javascript to actionscript fail to work.Actionscript can still call up to javascript, but no return.If the user clicks inside the SWF, then somewhere else on the page, then resizes the window, nothing breaks.[code]All of those attributes are the callback function names.This happens with both IE7 and IE8, but FF is fine.
View 1 RepliesWhen I create a little .swf file with actionscript it will run correctly in whatever stage size I choose for the document. However, I want the display to update when I change the window size that the .swf is running in as it is running. It does some resizing as I drag the corner of the .swf window, but not correctly. I actually put the statement:
graphics.drawRect(0,0,stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);into the code, and it is not drawing the origin at the corner of the window (among other problems). Is this a bug in Flash, and/or is there some way around this When I put the window back to its original size, it displays correctly, and this is happening for all stage sizes and aspect ratio
I want to make the stage and contents to resize in ratio to the window size, Like the file I have provided, When you make the window bigger or smaller the contents change with it. How did they do that? [URL]
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a kind of coverflow layout and I'm using an XML file to house my links and information about those links. in my ActionScript, I'm using getURL to point to the link the user clicks and open the link in a new window using the following script:
getURL(infostruc[current - 1].artLink, "_blank");
I need to have the new window open up to a specific size (1014x714), but I'm not sure how to write the AS for this kind of action since I'm calling the link from an external file.
I have an AIR app who has a canvas that scales when I resize the window. I have a sprite that is added to that canvas. When I scale the window the sprite does not scale with it.How do I tell the added sprite to scale with the canvas? Or tell it to be 100% of the container always?Right now I am listening for a resize event and resizing the sprite on that. But that seems like a waste of code/ too much of a CPU hog because I can easily add an element (using MXML) and tell it to be 100% of the parent and it will scale it on its own (EG without telling it to).
View 2 RepliesI am having a problem. I found the actionscript 2 code to open a browser window, but it is not working in Safari, or Firefox. I found an old action script 1 file version 5 for the flash player that works just fine, but I am using 8 and actionscript 2 so that doesn't work for me.
View 5 RepliesI have a Flash/Flex object (Flashlight-VNC), which I would like to dynamically resize to fit the entire window after pressing a button in the Flex app. This would preferably happen without restarting the Flex app (and therefore the VNC session). I would just use the built-in Flash fullscreen mode, however Adobe's somewhat silly security restrictions prevent keyboard input while in fullscreen mode.
How exactly can I do this? I'm already using SWFObject to embed the SWF, if that helps. I am open to any solution utilizing ActionScript, JavaScript, or both, however I am not all too familiar with ActionScript or Flex, and the AS-based solutions I have found involve extending a "Sprite" object to add resize functionality, which Flashlight-VNC does not seem to use.
I need to do some updates to components after a user has resized the browser window. Is there a good solution to determine when a user has completed resizing? I wasn't able to find any flex events that would cover this case.
