I need to change the stage size dynamically. When I try to do this?
size_mc.onRelease = function(){
trace(Stage.height);
Stage.height += 100;
trace(Stage.height);}
It comes always the current stage size.
Can we change the stage size during runtime?
I need to change the size of the stage dynamically during the runtime when the swf receives a flashvar from the html page. Can this be done?
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.

View 6 RepliesI have a flash file in folder "/" which loads another flash file in folder "/xyz/". The second flash file will load several resource files on its own. Now flash is looking for the resource files at the base folder "/" and instead of the other loaded flash's folder "/xyz/". The second loaded flash file is provided by a third party and can't be modified. Is there any way to dynamically change the base folder of the "application" at run-time? I've heard about the html swf tag "BASE" so I've tried loading the second flash file with a ".....?BASE=/xyz/" but it doesn't work.
View 0 Repliesi would like to know if its possible to dynamically change a movie size from a start HTML page. for example, if i want my movie to be completely seen on a 15" and a 19" monitor. i place 2 buttons on my HTML start page saying if you click here, you will get the 15" monitor version of my flashsite. if you click here you will get the 19" monitor version. and i only have one flashsite version which i want to dynamically change the size of from the HTML page. possible? not possible? if its not possible, then i have to make 2 version of my movie to fit 2 screen sizes..
View 2 RepliesI have a static area that I'd like to fill completely with text regardless of whether the text is 30 characters or 2 characters. More specifically the user has to find a certain number of any given letter before moving on in the game and I'd like their progress to be displayed in this static area.
So first I tried scaling the TextField but the text inside stays the same size.
Then I tried putting the TextField inside a MovieClip, turning on autoSize, then scaling the MovieClip but that distorts the text too much because autoSize doesn't retain the original proportions of the TextField.
This makes me think that the best solution would involve dynamically changing the size of the font to fit all of the characters inside a given area.
I have a FLA in which I've added three movie clips, each with a unique name. I've set the MC name through the properties panel as well as giving the MC a name when converting it from a image to a MovieClip (by clicking F8).
When I run the swf and output the names of the children in the swf, I find that the name of one of the MovieClips changes, for example from myFirst_MC to instance8.
To output the MovieClip names I loop through all the children of the swf and output the name like this:
for(var i:uint=0;i<numChildren;i++){
var display:DisplayObject = getChildAt(i);
trace( display.name );
}
Why does the instance name of a MC change? And how can I stop this from happening?
is there a way by which i could change the font and colour of a dynamic text,during run time.

I am importing 4 SWFs from one SWF. I load them in, and addChild them, every 20 seconds. So the first one will be visible for 20 seconds, then I will remove that, and addChild the second loaded SWF, etc. One SWF is 350x200, but the other 3 SWF's are 700x500. If I addChild the 350x200 SWF, it will be surrounded by the huge 700x500 stage size which can't happen for this project. Do I need to change the stage size?

View 1 Replieshow to change the height of the stage dynamically, with ActionScript. Is there a way to change the height of the stage with a pixel value? I don't want to scale down the whole movie just make the stage bigger, just like when you change it manually in Modify-Document.
View 9 Repliesis it possible to dynamically change the height of the stage?I am using 'dimensions: pixels', and 'noscale' as publish settings. What I would like to do is, when the height of a movieclip gets bigger (because of its dynamically loaded content), to make the 'stage.height' bigger too, so you can scroll more downwards.
I know stage.height is read-only, but it would be nice to have just the right amount of space at the bottom of the page, depending on how high the movieclips are. Reading back, I wonder if i state my question clear, hopefully I use the right terminology.so if stage.height would work i would like to do something like:
Code:
stage.height= MC._y+ MC._height +30;

View 9 Replieshow 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.
One of my client want to make a complete dynamic interface. where he can able to edit all through the admin module. Even the Stage size. once he change in admin module it will generate one xml file. from which i am fetching all the information. Now i don't have any idea that whether it is possible to change the stage size dynamically on fly. He want only one standalone swf no supporting files.

View 4 RepliesI am new to Flash and was trying to start a website for my photography business. I have an up and running version of Flash Pro CS4 with all updates. I purchased a full flash template from [URL] hoping to just open the .fla file and go to work editing. No such luck. When I click on the main.fla file, all the components seem to load in the library, however in the timeline, I only show like 9 random layers. When I run the timeline, all I get is a bunch of lines, squares, etc running on and off the stage. When I click "publish" the layers and components run fine with all the default content. The template came in a ZIP file and after extracting, I get the usual files, .fla, .html, .XML, .SWA, etc. All the components seem to be in the .fla file. What am I missing? I know there should be more layers in the timeline, but I cant find them. My troubleshooting has been to confirm that the template is good with CS4 and ActionScript 3.0. I've tried different settings to include changing the pixel size, but nothing.

View 13 RepliesI have a stage with an external SWF loaded onto it. The stage scales dynamically to fill the size of the window.
Two problems: - I want certain items inside that loaded SWF to scale horizontally and vertically to fill the size of the stage.
- I want other items inside that movieclip to stay the same size, but be "attached" to the top and left of the stage.
i have searched this and many other forums as well as the doc for the answer to this question. I have a flash movie in which I dynamically create a diagram at runtime. The size of the diagram varies, but I need to display it within a fixed size area on the HTML page. What I would like is for the stage to scroll dynamically based on the size of the diagram, but have no scrollbars at all if the diagram fits within the fixed area in the browser.
View 1 RepliesI've been thinking about the possibility of using Flash to create designs through ActionScript and tools that I could use at runtime. Is there any way of saving the stage elements as an image that I can use for print output later, preferably as a vector image?I realise the better option would probably be to learn how to script in java script or another language that can be used with a drawing application such as Illustrator, but I'm curious about what sort of options I have to do it through Flash.
View 1 RepliesI want to use the UI Text Scroll component on a text box. When I make the initial text box,it is the normal 1 line in depth, based on the font size. When I paste the type into the box it gets very long, which is fine, but when I try to make the text box smaller using the transform tool so that I can make it fit the movie, it makes the type smaller as well. Is there a way to change the height of the box, without it effecting the text inside?

View 6 RepliesI'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.
This is where i'm up to so far:
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
[code]....
I think I need something like:
if (object moves up)
decrease
else if (object moves down)
increase
This question has been raised in other forums as one of "moving the stage," and the solution seemed to be that the stage cannot be moved, only the components of the animation can be moved. That solution does not work for my situation (I am using CS4) where moving a motion path causes the shape off an object to be altered.Perhaps I can pose the question this way:The stage initially has origin (0,0) and the size of the stage is measured from that point. Is it possible to change the origin to, say, (-100, -200), which, in effect moves every object on stage 100 pixels to the right (because the stage has moved 100 pixels to the left) and 200 pixels down?
