View 2 RepliesI am trying to build a flash that auto-adjust its size to the browser window size, while leaving the content of the flash itself top-centered in the screen.I have found this solution [URL].. on How to keep centered stuff in this exact case so i am pretty confident i will be able to adjust that script to do what i want.
Now my problem is that if i put my content inside the movie-clip (centerrectangle) with all the animation require, link and other stuff, the movieclip (center rectangle ) never have the exact same center, thus making the script go wild trying to always adjust the location to the variable size of the movie clip.

Is there a way to have the full stroke size (height/width) fully included or excluded in the movieclip symbol?If I'm making a rectangle with size 100, adding dynamically lines of size 20 when certain criteria are reached in game. But I also want to have stroke of size 5-6, problem is that they half their size in included in the rectangle 100 of height, and half are outside.It makes it more tricky to make the formulas to take in consideration the 2.5 for the size and also the effect on x positionning etc. Much easier to just have to do the like of "x += 20" without the assle of calculating the half stroke height.So how to have those stroke included/excluded when converting to symbol?

View 7 RepliesI've worked with PHP/MySQL for some time but have basically been editing existing OOP scripts or coding my own using procedural programming. I understand some about objects and how they work and I've read books but I am one who learns best by experimenting and trying to find solutions to my failed experiments.
That being said, I'm trying to create a simple window manager with it's own container. However, I can't get the container to display anything as I apparently don't understand how the stage works in flex applications. Here is my code, there are no errors but nothing gets displayed.Additionally, how do I get the current width & height of the application?
UI.mxml
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

Really not enjoying myself with AS3 - it's about as userfriendly as an airplane cockpit. I'm sure Flash the program is quite happy with it, but spending hours into weeks trying to implement pretty ordinary functionality is getting really tiring.
I have a textfield loading in html/CSS file. The textfield is in a container mc. I'm trying to use a scrollbar on the textfield, and I need to set the textfield to newsText.autoSize = "left";. When I do this, the textfield displays the entire contents of the html file in the swf, ignoring the textfield size AND the mc size, displaying all the lines in the file in howover many lines are in the html file.
I'm autocenting my swf in the browser, so this of course throws the whole thing off center.

I'm trying to create a Flex application that can automatically shrink based on the size of the components that it contains, so that a user can shrink it to a minimal view to see more of the HTML page it's embedded in.
I know how to change the size of the whole application using ExternalInterface, but I'm having trouble automatically figuring out how much the size changed when something is hidden or shown.
For example:
Let's say I have the following flex layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical">
<mx:VBox width="100%" paddingTop="0" paddingBottom="0"
[Code]....
How can I hide one of the text fields and cause the VBox to shrink? I'm currently setting it to visible = false, but that doesn't seem to affect the parent VBox.
Once the VBox shrinks, how can I detect that the Application no longer needs so much space, and then go about figuring out how much less space it needs?
I've tried using ResizeEvent, but I haven't been able to get them to work, but I could be doing something wrong.

View 1 RepliesI have a video object that dynamically changes. I want to put that inside of a movieclip that is always 320,240 no matter what the video object size is. I want the video object to increase or decrease but I always want to display it at 320,240. How would I write this? I tried:
ActionScript Code:
videoDisplay = new Sprite();
videoDisplay.graphics.beginFill(0xCCFF00,100);
videoDisplay.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 320, 240);
[Code].....
But the video object still is large (my video object is 480,360 in this case). It seems like it is not nested inside of the the videoDisplay sprite which should only be 320,240.

Apparently I can get the desired behavior if I change HBox to Canvas but I would still like to know how to accomplish this with a HBox and why it differs from Canvas.

I know javascript can take care of this problem, but I was wondering if there is a way to do it with Flash? I just need to specify the size of the new window when it opens.

View 1 RepliesPretty simple- just trying to have a link in my .swf open in a new window, with a specified size.
I have done this before but can't seem to remember/find a tutorial... well besides one on kirupa that didn't seem to work for me.
I believe the method I used before involved putting some code on the page you were linking to...
I have a button which when clicked opens a new window. The code is a frame action in the timeline. Short of putting some javaScript in the page that opens, I am unable to set the width and height of the new window. Here's my code
Actionscript Code:
import flash.external.*;var newWindow:String;street_btn.onPress = function () {newWindow = String (ExternalInterface.call ("openWindow", "http://www.unseenproductions.net/images/street/index.html", "win","height=1000,width=700,toolbar=no,scrollbars=no"));};
I've tried defining width+height immediately following the link in the string, but no matter where I put it the window size is unaffected.
How do I define the window size of the opening window if I have something like this:
function ClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void{ var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("something.html"); navigateToURL(req, "_blank");}
