I got a swf file called 'NW_site_4_diap.swf' centered in my browser with html. At the moment, anything that sticks out from the stage to the surrounding area get's displayed in the browser. Now I'd like to crop the swf file at its stage size. How do I get flash or html to crop all elements to the exact stage size? Here's the html code I used:
HTML Code:

I have a movieclip that i want to move when i push the left and right keys, which i have working however it when i embed this swf file into a web page the movieclip object will not stay within the stage size i set, in other words the longer i hold left the further along the web page it moves. Does anyone know a way other than [SWF(width="500", height="500", frameRate="30", backgroundColor="#FFFFFF")]
I also tried cropping the moving movieclip which did not help it just moved the smaller movieclip all over the screen in the same way.
I already set if conditions to stop the movieclip going out of bounds but it only seems to work within adobe flash player
I have drawn objects outside the stage in the belief they would be croped automatically when creating the swf. BUT it doesn't. The objects are of course on the stage but pour over the edge... Anyone who knows what I need to do? To actually draw the objects inside the stage can be trickey since they are sort of supposed to be bigger than the stage. If I draw them inside the stage there is a risk of a little gap.
I'm trying to get an object to increase in size the lower it goes down the stage, and decrease in size the high it moves up the stage.
It only needs to increase or decrease by a small amount. Basically, it's for a game character. To ad realism to his movements, it would be nice to have this feature.
Does anyone know a way to crop a SWF like you would crop an image in Photoshop? I'm building a Flash Banners application in my Flash portfolio website and I'm loading a SWF using addChild via a URL loader object. There is no way to mask the outsides of the SWF because addChild puts the SWF at the front of the display list so the masks would just show up anyway and the masks will just be huge white sheets that will look dreadful. I need to LITERALLY crop the SWF down to 550 X 325 pixels.
is it possible to set the stage (the actual flash movie as it appears on the screen to the user) size in as2.0? i have a photo gallery that i plan on reusing on several sites and i need it to be different sizes on each site and i'd rather standardize it so that i never have to open the .fla file, just open the XML file that it pulls all of the images from and have an attribute for the stage size. my xml file is as follows where movie_width and movie_height would be the dimensions of the flash file as it appears on the site.
I was wondering if it is possible to crop an swf file through a program that doesn't convert the swf to anything.I've seen a few programs like this online, but none of them actually work. Has anyone has success with this?
I have an animated logo .fla file, there some some AS 2.0 in it. I basically need to scale and crop the entire file (just like you'd scale and crop an image in photoshop).
I'm working on a slideshow where I'm calling in photos from an xml file. How do I tell AS to resize the stage according to photo dimensions? Would I need to list the dimensions in the xml file? If so, how would I pull that into the fla file with AS?
When I preview my flash file it says that the filesize is 29kb. However when I look at the properties of the outputted swf it's coming in a t 36kb. Which is the correct size? Also what extra information is being added to push it up by 7kb?

I'm making a mockup for a client and I need to Load the .swf with the exact stage size so the graphic elements do not float outside the loaded movies stage area. [URL]Basic load code I'm using...
I made a preloader for my single scene movie and although the preloader is about 16k, when placed into frame 1 of the movie and tested, the frame is shown to have about 256k, which is larger than the movie it's loading. I've gone through all the files and made sure that export in frame 1 is not checked and made sure the publish settings also are set to export in frame 1.
Is there any "mainstream" library used for this purpose? Commonly spread, well maintained, documented etc.I found these (using flash):
Uploadify - not many releases, latest 12/2010, no documentation (!) SWFUpload - latest release 03/2010, documentation fancyupload - looks buggy.
phpfileuploader - looks heavyweight, and looks commercial (?) I cannot read the licence (you can download it but are you allowed to use it forever without paying?) plupload New version of pure javascript (no flash) Valums' ajax upload claims to handle file size limit and progress bar, which is quite suspicious to me: these features require to guess the file size before the upload, which seems impossible in javascript (look also here). Or can it work?
I have developed a video player in adobe flash cs4 and used all vector arts but when I open this fla file in Adobe Flash CS5 and published it, the swf file size more then fla file.
I would like to run a .swf file into an existing flash file, but the dimension size of the .swf file is too big. I am a beginner to flash and not sure of the steps to execute this. Would anyone be willing to walk me through the steps to import the code?
I have created a flash project in CS5 and I have set the size of the stage to 500 x 400. When I view it in the flash player as the swf it plays fine. What I want to be able to do is get the swf file to fill the screen with the image no matter what size the end user scales the window of the Flash player too.
i have a bit of a problem with a number var. On opening stage (875 px) the var value is 368; when i resize the stage i need the var to grow till 578 max.
I'm using Flash CS3 and wish to create a movie where the stage is a certain size but the actual content of the movie extends further than the stage. The user will be able to drag the stage from left to right to show hidden parts of the movie. Similar to the idea of a horizontal scrolling image gallery but without the scrollbar (see attached for example image).
I am doing one completely dynamic interface which is control by an admin module. what i want to do is to control the stage size by this admin module.When i press submit in the admin module it will generate one xml file which is connected to the flash flie, and what ever the size is mention in that xml that has to reflect in that flash file. I don't want any supporting file only one swf. I don't know whether it is possible to adjust the stage size dynamically on fly.
I've been making some banners for my company to be sent to certain profesional magazines. While checking the swfs, we noticed that, when opend directly on a web browser (as swf standalone), it (a) shows all the elements, including those outside stage and (b) gets resiced depending on the screen size.Is there a way to prevent this happening? I mean, is there a scripting/non scripting way to force the swf size to stage size and nothing else so that we don't show anything we shound't?
I want to read width and height from XML and then change the stage size based on these numbers in an EXE file of Flash. Imagine the main size of flash application is for example 1024 x786. I write a code which interact with user as touch screen and all startup data(like image file names and key coordination) come from an XML file. My problem is, for different PCs, I must set the size of application manually. Some touch screens have different ratios like 1280 * 400! The only way is set the stage size on startup the application butstage.staheWidthandstage.stageHeightdont change anything for me.
