Professional :: Size Of Flash Movie Displaying Much Smaller Than It Should Be
Feb 18, 2010
URL...I can't seem to figure out why the swf file is so small. I published it at 100% width & height (I want it to be full screen) but it only shows up as 216 pixels tall.
I found this really neat photo gallery on flashkit but there is no support or readme included. how to size this thing.. the AS code does have comments but I am not a coder.I'd like to make the image window smaller and the overall movie smaller. 325x325 or so
I have a situation wherein I have to keep the size of my flash swf smaller than 215X130 pixel. However, I want to use Microphone, so the permission dialog needs an area at least 215X130.
My company sent me a video that they wanted us to post on the intranet. It's a simple powerpoint video with a narrator talking about some policy and benefit changes, etc.
I tried the exporting the video in both 720(width) and 1280 format, and found that when shown in fullscreen mode, the 1280 format was much easier to read than the 720, however, we didn't want to show it on the intranet page at full 1280 by default. So I modified the html and javascript that plays the movie so that it would show in 720 width on the page. The problem with resizing the 1280 video into a 720 space is that the video player bar (where the play, stop, volume controls are) becomes extremely small when I do this. Of course, this is because Flash generated the player with a toolbar optimized for 1280, so it's getting scaled down when I pack it into a smaller playing area.
Is there an solution to this that I haven't thought of? How can I generate this movie to get the better full screen appearance of the 1280 video, but also still show the video in a smaller 720 area when the user is not in full screen mode?
would like to make 3 versions of the same site, and then have them redirected depending on the user's monitor resolution. Because of this, I need to make some of the movie clips smaller, and some bigger. What is the best way to do this. Some of the movie clips contain text.
I see a number of cool sites and examples using Senocular's TransformTool. Most of them look and function really well. I've downloaded and reviewed the code for a number of different examples.I can see how everyone else's works.I'm having difficulty with 2 points:
1. When I select a movieClip, the TransformTool appears in the correct spot and in the correct dimensions. But the movieClip itself is relocated much above the TransformTool and is MUCH smaller than its original size and the current (and correct) dimensions of the TransformTool. Selecting one of the handles and dragging stretches the movieClip but does not make it the same dimensions as the TransformTool
2. Releasing one of the handles seems to cause the handle to behave in the same way the movieClip did -- you can resize and move the handle.
[URL]when you resize the browser window you'll notice that the background pattern remains the same size but there's never a browser-scrollbar, besides that the movie in the center that is loaded stays centered when resizing while keeping it's window-dimension constant (it's actually 2 seperate movies forming the center window).
how I export the thing (as an image, or a movie, and in any format) I can't see the text. This is especially frustrating because text forms the entire basis of my animation.Tried converting text to movie clips, no difference. The weird part is, I was able to test the thing early on with no problem-- text displayed and everything. I should add: I have used MULTIPLE fonts... and I think this was about when things started not working.I'm working on a deadline and if you know how to fix this, it would make a big difference to my life.
I compile my Flex application with several swc's (libraries) and it creates a swf file. The sum of the swc's is roughly 4 MB yet the actual swf generated is only 1.6 MB. How is this possible?
I'm trying to create a custom button with ActionScript 3.0. I'm suing a round rect as background, but I have a problem with it size. This is my custom button class:
[Code]...
I don't know why when I use a size of (40, 20) I get a smaller rectangle than that size.
I made an SWF file (say X) and I have loaded this SWF file into another FLA file (say Y). With help from this forum, I got to do what I wanted - when I click on a button on the FLA file (Y), the SWF (X) shrinks to a smaller size (about half the size) and when I click on that same button again, X enlarges back to the original size. I acomplished this with tweenlite. THe SWF (X) has a slideshow of images. Now, when the SWF (X) shrinks to a smaller size, the images look very distorted and text in the images are not readable (although the text is large enough to be clearly visible).
My swf file is rather large, so I tried changing the quality settings and the publish settings, but nothing I do seems to change the size of the final swf.
I have a question regarding httpstreaming we have fms running with multiple smaller mp4 files about 50 MB in size. When played they start playing immediatly but still are cached/downloaded in directory C:Documents and SettingsUsernameLocal SettingsTemp of the clients
Now we have issues with a large file of 890 MB, which is not being played, clients need to download this complete file to play it. Does the streamingpart doesn't work well on our server?
Please help since we getting a lot of complaints from viewers. Running FMS 4.0.3 on CENTOS 5.7 64 Bit
What can i check besides the forums regarding dynamic httpstreaming
what I want to do is publish my flash file so that it scales down but not up!So if a browser window happens to be smaller than the pixel height, the movie is scaled down but if the browser window is bigger than the pixel size, the movie is not resized and just centered.
if it's possible to prevent a textfield from auto-scrolling on highlight when it's height is smaller than it's autoSize height. selectable = false is not an option, and the smaller height is a requirement, can't make it proper height and then mask it.
I have a flash movie atwww.cityofhillcrestvillage.org that will not display either locally or remotely in IE8. It is written in actionscript 2 and requires Flash Player 7 or greater. It displays fine in Chrome and Firefox. I tested it in all three browsers when I first developed it a couple of months ago and it worked fine.When the page first loads, it flashes on for a second, then disappears, and the alternate content does not display. If you reload the page, it flashes on again for a split second.
I am trying to build a flash that auto-adjust its size to the browser window size, while leaving the content of the flash itself top-centered in the screen.I have found this solution [URL].. on How to keep centered stuff in this exact case so i am pretty confident i will be able to adjust that script to do what i want.
Now my problem is that if i put my content inside the movie-clip (centerrectangle) with all the animation require, link and other stuff, the movieclip (center rectangle ) never have the exact same center, thus making the script go wild trying to always adjust the location to the variable size of the movie clip.
I made a Flash 8 movie (Swf) that is 212kb in size. I could reduce the size of my .Swf by compressing its pictures. I did so, reducing the pictures inside it from 518kb to 183kb with Irfanview but when I import them into my movie/library and save it there is NO difference in size - it stays on 212kb.
I created a stage size 960 by 640, than i create a movieclip exactly the same size as the stage, but when i double click to get into the movieclip everything get smaller an object with 960 by 640 has reduce to 184by 140??? How do I get it back to the original size?
in the above page it is behaving just like wanted, EXCEPT want the top and left side (perhaps) to be 'pinned', meaning when resizing the browser window, the top does not disappear. I like that it resizes, and scales, yet, keeps the whole viewport filled. Don't like that it can disappear at the top if the browser window isnt just right.
if it is not possible to scale smaller but can scale larger, and keep the browser window full, that is ok too.
How can I set the parameters of a smaller mc, to be placed on top of a larger mc, and not have the active ingredients (such as some random floating objects) roam outside of the smaller mc? The problem I am having at the moment, is my objects will not stay inside the smaller mc, but instead, roam all over the larger mc below it. So I'm thinking I need to set up some solid parameters for the smaller mc. I was up late, late last night on all sorts of actionscript boards, and still haven't found the answer. I am using flash 5, and the small mc is, once again, on TOP of a larger mc.
how do I consolidate adobe flash arrange window area so that I can make my time line small to be able to see the whole movie with keyframes how I want to see them. there are some times I have to scrool alway the way right, how do i avoide from doing this?

It is possible to create a flash picture that the usercan drag around ?In another words, this will be a big pictureon a small area or screen and the person withscrollbars or mouse can drag / pan the picture.
I'm displaying a .jpg image by xml in Flash. The problem is the output quality of the image looks terrible (pixelated and text unreadable). The image is 72dpi at 1150px X 750px. The display movie clip area is also 1150px X 750px. Is there any hints or settings I might be missing to display this image at a higher quality ?
