I am trying to reference to top level (stage) width and height of the main stage for the placement of something located inside a movieclip on the stage.
My code is:
Code:
my_loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - my_loader.width)/2;
my_loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - my_loader.height)/2;
But this seems to just relate to the width/height of the mc that my_loader is nested in...
I have tried the following and had no luck:
stage.stage.stageWidth
root.stage.stageWidth
parent.stage.stageWidth
MovieClip(root).stage.stageWidth
I've come to notice recently while using bitmap objects in the Flash CS5 (maybe before as well) authoring environment that are less than 4 pixels in width and/or height that they are treated as though they are 4 pixels wide/tall. Many of the bitmaps I use are 1 px wide in one direction or the other, and they are stretched to fill an area. Lets say I have a bitmap that is 20px tall and 1 px wide, and I stretch it to be 100px wide. The "hit area" of the object, or parent objects that contain it, is 400 px wide. So even if you click a significant distance away from the object, it is still selected, and anything underneath that invisible area can't be selected.
I've also noticed that when exporting a frame as an image, the smallest the width/height may be is 4px, and when I click the Edit button in the Properties panel with a Bitmap instance selected, it opens up in Photoshop CS5 and is 4 pixels wide! I'm wondering if for some reason Flash can't handle bitmaps less than 4 pixels in width/height and is treating it as if it IS 4 pixels wide, possibly even adding 3 extra columns of transparent pixels, because if I do the same thing manually, naturally it acts identical to the way Flash treats the 1px wide version. But why? Why can't Flash handle small bitmaps? Seems to me that's more efficient than quadrupling the amount of memory required.
I would like my website [URL] to be fullscreen and I've found this code to make it.But I am having problems with Firefox - the screen doesn't load anything, it is just a black screen. And in some IE the swf appears in a little square (very small) and not the size it was supposed to be in a maximized screen. The compatibility button on IE8 fixes it, but not everybody knows about this button..

I'm compiling for the first time with mxmlc.exe from the command line. The compilation is successful, and the SWF plays if I set specific pixel sizes for width and height in my HTML wrapper. However, if I set the sizes to 100%, the SWF is not loaded (and right-clicking on the page yields the regular Firefox menu instead of the Flash menu).
Here's my HTML.

View 0 RepliesI have a ViewStack which is dataProvider for a TabBar. There are two VBoxs as children for this ViewStack. It works fine with absolute values for width and height for these VBoxs, but when specified in percentages, the VBox uses all the available space (100%) for any percentage value. find the code and screen shots below.
how can children of a ViewStack be aligned to center? There is no horizontalAlign property for ViewStack and it is not working with horizontalCenter= "0".
Code:
<mx:ViewStack id="viewStack" width="100%" height="100%" selectedIndex="0" horizontalCenter="0" textAlign="center">
<mx:VBox label="Tab 1" width="25%" height="10%" borderThickness="2" borderColor="red"

I would like to use a movieclip to load a flv video. The problem I have is that I want to change the video dimensions. I've tried several software to change the video dimensions but as far as it seems all of them keep the same height-width ratio than in the original video. Is there any software that would allow me to change the height and width without keeping the same height/width ratio as in the original video file?

should i be using a delete this.OnEnterFrame when the clip reaches the desired width? the problem is that ive noticed a lag in my tweens and i wonder if this is whats causing it.
I have a flash banner graphic that I created at 1000px wide by 420px tall. I want this to be fluid and fill the browser width, so that when the browser is rescaled the swf fills the horizontal space. My problem is that there is content below it that needs to touch it, but the height is trying to fill 100% so it is creating vertical space between the flash content and the div below it.
I guess a better way to describe it is that I don't want to define the height I just want the width to be 100%. At 100% height there is unused space so I need to make the height maybe undefined or something smaller then 100%?Also, if you make the browser too small vertically the width will not fill. So I want 100% width regardless of the browser height.
How do I set the width and height of my swf in AS3?
This is my code so far:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class Game extends Sprite {
}
}
Right now, when loaded it is at some arbitrary default size.
If I can't change the size this way, is there any easy work around that will be consistent?

I'm trying to change the position of a movieclip I've added to the stage. When I try to access stage.width or stage.height I get 0. I've tried MovieClip(root).stage, DisplayObject(root).stage, root.stage, stage, and simply width and height. All of these are equal to zero.
View 1 RepliesI want to write a shell that creates instances of an app and scales it down for animating. Well, I created my shell class and instanced the app and set scales for x and y and then I traced the height and width because I wasn't sure what they'd be. I thought they'd be based on the stuff on the stage or whatever, but they both came up zero. So I'm not sure how that works, am I supposed to have set those values?

View 1 RepliesI was wondering if there was a way to set an air app to fill 100% width and 100% height of the screen?
I know how to do it on the web by setting swf address parameters to 100% and setting stage.scalemode and stage.align
I am using FDT to publish my air package with an ANT build. So it does not use mxml, just my document .as class.
I've recently noticed that when I use tweens to fade in/out a mc or to move it along th x/y axis sometimes it doesn't work correctly. In this case I am adding a mc named B_info and some text to the stage and using a tween to fade them in. Testing the movie repeatedly I've noticed that sometimes they don't load or the alpha value is lower than it should be making the the text illegible. I've also had the same problem in the past with x, y tweens whereas the mc failed sometimes to get to the x value as it should.
Code:
Select all//_loading Info
function infoDisplay():void {
//load lines animation
var B_info:infoB = new infoB();
addChildAt(B_info, 0);
B_info.x = 552;
//this is TWEEN 1
var fadeIn:Tween = new Tween(B_info, "alpha", None.easeNone, 0, .5, .8, true);

I just have a simple button set up to move a BOX on rollOver using tweens and move it back into position onRollOut.
Problem: The onRollOut function doesn't work consistantly. It works ok most of the time, but if I move the mouse quickly (not like crazy quick), the BOX doesn't get back into place.
Is there a way to "secure" an onRollOut statement to make sure it works at all time? I try also adding onReleaseOutside, onDragOut... but that is not the problem.
How can I use the width and height that's set by the object's embed code within my Flash movie?
I've got items that position based on stage height/width. Problem is although the object appears re-sized when you adjust the values in the embed, the stage size obviously does not change.
Ideally I'd like to position and scale objects based on the dimensions provided in the embed.
i want to zoom the movie clip, for this i have set the movieclip width and height with the button. It is correct or anything els
