I'm looking to have a logo stay locked in position on the right and the menu bar stay locked in position on the left when scaled in a web browser. The background in the main stage area. Is there a way to do this in Flash or is this done with HTML?

View 3 RepliesI am making a site using a liquid layout in Flash and have added an FLV with playback component swf. When I test the file it scales fine in the browser until you try rescale/minimise/enlarge etc. It then squashes.Url...Try rescaling the browser and you'll see the issue occuring. This only happens with the FLV playback component added. It is a linked file by the by and not embedded.
View 1 Repliesif i was to make a flash website is there a way that i could have it scale the width to fit the browser, and scale the height so that it keeps the same aspect ratio and doesn't stretch the contents out of proportion?
View 3 RepliesIm designing a website but having trouble viewing the whole page on different sized monitors. On more square resolution monitors, the left side of the website will get cut off. If you scale the browser window up, to a more widescreen format again the site will come back into view, but as you scale your browser window to the left e.i. making it more square, agian the left side gets cut off.
anyone know how to prevent or fix this? the site address is [URL]
I want a flv to fill the browser. I am using this code:
Code:
Select allStage.align = "TL";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.showMenu = false;
var timeline:MovieClip = this;
var _minW:Number = 320;
var _minH:Number = 240;
[Code] .....
It works perfectly as written. It scale the movie on resize perfectly and retains the proportions of the video. It doesn't fill the browser completely though when the proportions arent correct(leaving bars or the background color on the sides or top and bottom). I want it to scale proportionately, but fill the browser, so effectively some of the movie will be cut off.
I am in AS2 with a working full browser flash site. I have an mc I'd like to start out at 100% but scale up to 120% if the browser window area increases. How do I tell example_mc to scale proportionally up to 120% when the window scales?
View 1 Replieswhen I play my SWF locally, it scales dynamically with the size of the window. Now that Ive published it, the website is at a static size...how do I change that?
View 1 RepliesI have a full flash website built using Flash (of course). So I publish it using flash itself. But I am having a difficult time aligning it in center with its original dimension. I dun want my swf stretch out or scale at all. I want to display it without scaling and also in the center of the browser window.
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP;
I did try these and also tried changing my publish settings but didn't work.
I'm working on a site right now where the flash player fills the browser window up to 1600x1200 res. The developers I hired are having problems with AS2 when it comes to scaling things and positioning them as the browser window changes size. While it works, the biggest problem is the aspect ratio, keeping the layout looking nice, and the footer keeps dropping off the screen at certain sizes.
Screen res closer to 16:9 looks better laid out than 4:3 and they keep telling me that it has to be proportional when it comes to positioning and scaling, although positions aren't really changing from whatever code they've used. To me, there must be some way so that if looks nice on 16:9, when it goes to 4:3 it will look good too, or even some in between size, they should be able to use code to figure out where things belong, even if it's not perfect. Instead, there are big gaps of dead space on 4:3 and it just looks like crap.
This is also true of background images which fill up about 1/3 of the page on the left or right. As we go down in size they say only a proportionate scale can be used, but sometimes the images are staying too large based on the size of the browser window and should be scaled more. Some of this may be attributed to much of the content being loaded dynamically as the client has us building a CMS, but to me, it's still coordinates and scale when it comes down to it and I don't know why raw percentages must be used instead of some more complex math.
If someone knows how this can be achieved, or can at least point me to web site that has this working properly, I can make sure they investigate further and figure this out before the deadline. I'm adding attachments to illustrate what I'm talking about. I'm using colored blocks to define where dynamic text boxes, icons, footer, images and navigation are. Arrows show where i'd like things to move dynamically.
I have been trying to work out how the full-browser background was done here: [URL] It scales in a very elegant way: it never stretches the image, stays centered on the image and never causes ugly blank areas around the image. For me, it's become deceptively difficult to achieve! :-(
View 1 RepliesI have finished my flash game, but when I used web Browser such as Chrome or FireFox to run it, it enlarged my game to full size of the browser. Is there anyway( in AS3 script) that I could prevent this from happening as well as hide the symbols that their sizes are bigger than my default size defined at the document property panel?
View 1 RepliesI'm using the code below to scale my main movie with the browser window.What happens is that the images in the movie are baldy distorted ..Can I preserve the images to scale or at least can I scale them with a different scale?I'm using CS3 ,AS2 and Flash Player 9
Code:
// ***Stage aligned top left
Stage.align = "TL";
// *** stage scaling with the browser window.
Stage.scaleMode = "Scale";

I'm using the textArea component, but i want to scale it to the size of the browser window. The problem is it scale the content(xml+css) and the scrollbar, and i want to just change the size. I've also tried to attach the Component and then setting the size, but that give the same problem.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to scale a background image to the size of the browser window. For some reason it does not fill the entire stage?
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";
background_mc._width =Stage.width
background_mc._height =Stage.height
background_mc.onResize = function() {
background_mc._width = Stage.width
background_mc._height = Stage.height
} Stage.addListener(background_mc);
My site has a header and footer and then has an empty mc the full size of the stage (overlaps the footer and header). I'm loading 3 separate movable windows into this mc. I would like both the header and footer to scale proportionally with the browser (including the empty mc.), but not the windows. So basically I want everything to scale but the windows as they have pixel fonts.I'm not happy with my current website because its not scalable and when I drag the windows around I have huge margins on larger resolutions. Since my header and footers are vectors I realize I can make things alot more flexible if I can just figure this out.
View 3 RepliesIm using a dock gallery fx from flash xml components. But for some reason when I preview in browser the dock gallery scales out of the swf area. This doesnt happen if i change the p[ublish setting to match movie. But if the publish setting is set to perscentage gallery scales.

I am currently using flash CS5. I have the task of moving text constantly in an animation from left to right..with the text growing at the same time from 12pt to 36pt. As of yet i have looked across many tutorials only showing me on the movement of text I would be great full to anyone who can help me with this text scaling issue
View 2 RepliesIt seems 9-slice scaling in Flash CS5 is a little half-baked. If you create a symbol containing text and vector graphics, only the vector graphics is scaled according to the 9-slice scaling contract. For example, consider the following symbol:
Sure, the vector graphics are scaled according to the 9-slice contract, but what are we supposed to do about text? And just in case you're thinking "convert the text to vectors/raster"... unfortunately no... I don't have the option of converting the text to a set of vectors or a raster because its content will have to be dynamic.
I want to 9 scale the line in the shape of 'U' so that i can increase the width in a manner that the rounded corner of the line not got spoiled and I also want to resize (in proportion) it without spoiling it's rounded corner. Right now I have done it in the distinct files but I want to do these both properties in a single file.
View 1 RepliesI've search through all the threads with "scaling" and "resizing" and can't find the solution.
Basically I have a GUI element on a gallery that I don't want to scale, while the rest of the page is free to resize/scale.
I think I need to add a listener of some sort to the stage, but I'm not sure how to do this.
How do I scale and move a finished animation (with more than one simbols - do I have to group them or something since I don't wan't to touch the background?) without having to do it on every keyframe?
View 5 RepliesIs there a simple way to scale my entire movie? I've tried doing it with the "modify -> scale" and dragging, but that only scales the selected symbol. I also tried going to the last frame, selecting all and scaling again, but then I have stuff in the middle of the movie that doesn't seem to scale correctly.
View 1 RepliesI have a couple of Image Loaders, the images that they call are bigger than the components themselves but have turned on scaleContent to ensure that it fits and scales to size. This works fine across many platforms but i've found that on some systems it displays the imported image at it's true size rather than the actual size of the component.
View 1 RepliesSay you have a keyframe on 1 and a keyframe 25 and a keyframe on 50. Can I grab 50's key and scale down? So could I grab 50s key or all 50 frames and scale down to say 25, and then the key would be in the middle still (guessing 12 or 13 for the middle key). Until then I'll manually drag keyframes using Ctrl. It just would be nice to easily scale down keyframes/frames even if it's not 100% precise.
View 5 RepliesDo anybody know about how flash player render the content when we do the scaling? Let's say i have 2 flash swf file. swf1 : the stage size is 2000 px x 2000 px. + 1 movieclip with 100% transform swf2 : the stage size is 1000 px x 1000 px. + 1 movieclip with 50% transform Let's say there is a movie clip on swf1. So i copy the same movie clip to 1000 px x 1000 px file and transform the movieclip to 50%. So it will look the same if i scale the swf2 x 2. If there is any different on swf1 and swf2 in team of CPU usage or etc?
Like is it true when playing swf2 need more CPU usage than swf1 because swf2 need to do the scaling but swf1 not. Just not sure which way i should develop the content. Because i have to make some content and the width/height are about 3000 px. So i am thinking if i should set the stage close to limit 2880 or just make the content like swf2. And my concern is if it will use more CPU when do the scaling.
i have a MC of a circle with a stroke i motiontweened the circle to scale larger, but the stroke is scaling up proportionally..is there any way to maintain stroke weight when motiontween-upscaling a shape? just when i think i'm on a roll with this program, i'm stumped like every 30min.s,
View 4 RepliesThis is a ridiculously easy problem but I'm drawing a mental blank at how to do it so in advance I apologize for the simplicity. I'm trying to get a movie clip to rotate and scale automatically without being clicked. I would like it to gradually rotate by 90 degrees and scale by 150%, but I can't figure out how to get a motion tween to do it and am having to do it manually frame by frame. What is the code to do this?
View 5 RepliesI created an animation with various symbols and motion tweens, mostly on outer level timeline. At the end, I realized the resolution was too low for a quality quicktime export. After scaling the canvas from 550x400 to 1650x1200, I tried scaling the rest of the objects using the "edit multiple frames" brackets, but every scene I try to do this to, only a few of the frames are scaled. They start scaling and moving around all over the place fluctuating between the original and new positions. So i have to go back and manually scale/reposition the tween spans. Am I doing something wrong with the edit multiple frames thing or something? Or is there an easier way to do this I haven't seen?
