Is it possible to set the stage height and width of your movie externally via Javascript?For example, I created a very simple .flv player that can have its video src changed externally, but now I'd like to also set the height and width of my stage so if I load in a .flv that is smaller or larger I can have it fit to its size.

View 12 RepliesI 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
How can i make a movie clip the same width and height of the stage using actionscript, when the width of the movie isnt known?
View 12 RepliesI am trying to use IE8's IWebBrowser2 interface to obtain a webpage's embedded flash's url, height, width information. This flash can be generated by javascript. So I did like this: from IWebBrowser2 I got IHTMLElementCollection，then I iterated through the collection to get IHTMLObjectElement2，and finally called get_data() to get flash's url.
But when I tried to extract flash object's url for [URL], get_data() returned "null". Why is this?So what's the difference between IHTMLObjectElement2 and IHTMLElement2? What's the right way to obtain IHTMLElement2 from IWebBrower2?
i have a page with swf flash flash with width 300x250
<div id="flashswf"> ...some flash </div>
<div id="maxme">full screen</div>
i have a link called full screen and i need to maximize the flashswf div to fit the current browser maximum height and width
is this possible using jquery?
I was wondering if any of you can spot the error in my code? I got a bunch of objects called 'jelly' that are gonna bounce around my screen but the problem I got is they don't bounce at all! they just run straight off. And yeah I'm very new to actionscript, can anyone see what I'm doing wrong here?

Is it possible to get the stage height/width on something that isn't added to the stage?
View 1 RepliesI'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 0 RepliesI have a parent swf that loads another swf (it's for a client). The parent swf 's stage dimensions don't match the child's. How can the child set the stage dimensions?
I've tried this after the child was loaded, but it's not working:
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.stageWidth = 700;
stageHeight = 600;
trace(root.width);
trace(stage.width);
Both these return 100. Same for height. The stage has been set to 1024x620 in the editor.I'm using CS5, Flash version 10, windows7 64-bit.I don't get what's going wrong here. I'm trying to center something and it keeps coming out like this.
Is there a way to set the stage width and height using actionscript, the same way you might set it using the "size" button in the document properties panel?
View 9 RepliesI have 2 movieClips which I want to make the height and width of the stage. It's worked fine in the first instance (pun, wahey!) but when I add in the second (blackOver) it stops the buttons working and all sorts.
Code:
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
bgmain.x = 0;[code]....
I understand how to resize the stage to 100% x 100%, but it seems exceptionally difficult trying to keep a footer MC/Sprite/Shape 20px high yet 100% wide.
I can use EXACT_FIT, but if the browser shrinks or expands the movie clip changes size. Keeping that height static is a pain at the moment!
So, basically I'm just looking for direction. The liquid layout tutorials seem to work for elements NOT stretched 100%...
Ha have a flash project for displaying pictures. These pictures are categorised. So you can have like 3 pictures on one category and then 50 for another. All goes ok. I can search pictures and display them with an opening deck of card effect.
Problem starts when users get tired of going picture by picture. So I thought that a grid displays would be perfect as another alternative way to display the full category. This way user would get both design and functionality running nice on the application. So I started coding the grid and calculated the amount of picture that I could fit into the width of stage regarding picture width (in this case they are always 300px*300px). But I didn't like the result. It forced me to think in a scroll. Again, user would never get that full grid display of all pictures in one category at once without having to navigate to see more or less. So I thought that calculating a way to reduce picture size would be nice in order to fit all pictures through stage width and height.
how can I change the height and width of stage dynamically. I tried it with the following code:
Stage.height = 250;
Stage.width = 250;
during the run time. Initially the Stage is at a height and width of 370 and 450 respectively. Also when I tried to trace the height and width of Stage after resizing the stage width and height, its showing the old value of width and height. That means the width and height not chnaging.
How to Change Stage properties(width,height,bitrate,color......etc) in dynamically...?
View 1 RepliesI have a small issue in ActionScript 2.0. I want to know the stage width and height for external SWF file. I used the following code:
var loader:MovieClip = _root.createEmptyMovieClip('loader', 1);var obj:Object = new Object();var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();mcl.loadClip("external.swf",loader);mcl.addListener(obj);
obj.onLoadInit = function(mc){ trace(mc._width); trace(mc._height);};
It's showing the whole animation's width and height but I want only stage width & height?
i have a website that has a illustrated panoramic landscape which slides alone when the user clicks different pages. but when reading the stageHeight and width values i get the width of these movieclips not the actual stage size being viewed on the screen.
so instead of getting the height 1000 and width 700 i get the height as 1800 and the width of 6000 how can get around this?

View 2 RepliesHow can I get the loaded clip's stage dimensions? Let's assume I have an animation of a square there, moves from x position 0 to x position 100 and the square is 10x10 px. I will adjust the dimensions of this clip to 110 x 10 px (so the animation fits exactly). Now I load this. But once the load is complete, if I check the loader width and height, it shows me only 10x10 (as in the first frame the square has 10x10 and is placed at 0,0). Thefore I am unable to center this animation on the loader clip's stage.

View 2 RepliesI 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?
