Professional :: Why Is Stage Larger Than .fla Dimensions

May 12, 2010

The more I work with this program, the more weird stuff I encounter.  I set up my .fla file as 700 x 400.  I've been putting stuff on the stage and adding tweens, then when I test the movie, part of the stage image is cut off.  I turned on the ruler, and found that the top of my stage is aligned at X 0.00 and Y -44.50.  I drew a box the size of the entire stage, and its position is X 0.00 and Y -44.50, and the dimensions are 700 x 469.  Can anyone tell me why my stage is larger than 700 x 400, and how to get the top left corner of the stage to be aligned at X 0.00 and Y 0.00?

Professional :: Ecard Suggested Stage Size - What Optimal Pixel Dimensions Would Be For Ecards To Run On Multiple Platforms

Feb 15, 2011

I have one that's almost done and the stage size is 700x800 px. But I'm starting to worry if that's going to look too small? To change it, will be a lot of work - there's animation, imported Jpegs etc. As far as I can tell, in order for it to look correct in larger dimensions I will need to basically create it again from the ground up. So, I'd really like to get an idea of what the optimal pixel dimensions would be for ecards to run on multiple platforms.

I really want to do this and I don't feel like I can move ahead until I get the viewing size correct. I don't even mind redoing the card. I just want my future cards to be the correct size. I don't want to have to come back and redo them all. By the way, the cards are being made in Flash. The site itself will be created in DreamWeaver.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Navigate An Image That Is Larger Than The Stage?

Feb 11, 2010

I would like to have an image much larger than the stage, with little buttons all over it that play a MC when moused over. When the mouse reaches the edge of the screen, I want it to scroll so that the viewer can explore the whole image. In short, its a map with destinations, and on mouse over the destinations play a MC. I'd like the viewer to be able to "explore" the map with the mouse. It seems simple, is there a good way to do it?

Also, once it is done, is there a way to begin with the entire image shown, but then have it tween to its final (Very large) size, without breaking that functionality.

Flex :: Get The Position Of A Swf Generated From A Fla File That Had A Larger Stage?

Jul 16, 2010

I have assets in external swfs which I load. I would like to know the exact size of the stage and the position of the asset in the fla that created it. If I try to ask the resulting MovieClip for it's size, it turns out it gives me the size when it is trimmed down to the tightest box around the non-transparent pixels. Looking at the contentLoaderInfo, I can get the original width/height that was used by the fla file, which is great. However, I still need to know where to place the asset within the stage.. basically I need an x/y offset for it.

The reason I need this is for a customizable avatar - it has many parts, which are placed in different areas on a stage to create the full avatar. I would like to be able to combine the individual swfs for each part to achieve this.

i'm using AS3 and I'm trying to change the stage dimensions to get bigger when I press a button. The current dimensions are 550 x 700, and I thought the code:import flash.events.MouseEvent;btn.addEventListener(Mouse Event.CLICK, makeStageBigger);function makeStageBigger(evt:MouseEvent) {stage.stageWidth = 800;stage.stageHeight = 900;}would work, but nothing happens. I'm getting no errors or anything, but when I click the button, it doesn't work.

Flash - Get The Stage Dimensions With StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL?

Mar 29, 2011

If you set the stage.scaleMode to StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL, your swf may be scaled up or down, and may be padded on the top/bottom or left/right. However, stage.width + height always return the width and height as defined by your swf, and stage.scaleX + Y always return 1. As I understand it, resize events are not thrown. So how do I get the actual scale and dimensions?

I want them for two problems:I want to fill that padding on the top/bottom or left/right with something only if the user can see it.
I am drawing vectors into bitmaps and want to properly scale it so it doesn't look jagged (or fuzzy with bitmap.smoothing). Flash seems to do the scaling correctly when you cacheAsBitmap=true, so how do I recreate this?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Get The Stage Dimensions Of An Externally Loaded Swf Through Moviecliploader?

Feb 9, 2009

Code:
var container:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip("container", this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mcLoader.addListener(this);[code]....

This always traces the width/height of the content of the external crossball.swf file, not its stage dimensions. So let's say crossball.swf has a document size of 200 by 200 pixels and in it is a shape of 115 by 30 it will trace the last as the width/height of 'container'.Is there any way to get the stage dimensions of an externally loaded swf through moviecliploader?

Iphone :: Flash Stage Dimensions When Exporting For IPad

Oct 3, 2011

In the Flash CS 5.5 AIR settings for iOS, in the General tab of a panel, there's a menu that lets you specify the target device:

-iPhone;
-iPad;
-(both) iPhone and iPad;

What happens if I specify the third? That is: I can't understand if I can use the default stage dimensions (iPhone dimensions) or I must eventually create a stage (and assets) for iPad (and it will work for iPhone too).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Setting External SWF Dimensions To Root Stage Size?

May 15, 2009

I am loading the SWF just fine, but I want the SWF to fit the root stage exactly. What happens instead is that the external SWF seems to include white space from around itself.

For example, the author-set width of the Tanks game (an example file I was using) is 550px, but when I set the width of loadEvent.currentTarget.content.width to 550px, the game is resized to maybe 350px width. I have to set the value of loadEvent.currentTarget.content.width to something like 640 in order to get the game itself to make full use of those 550 pixels.

Code:
package {
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.Event;

[Code].....

I have CS4 with AS3. I hard-coded values for cWidth and cHeight instead of getting them from flashvars because I am just testing in the IDE right now. Normally I would get those vars from flashvars.

Professional :: Encoding For FLV Results In 10x Larger File CS5 Vs CS4

Oct 1, 2010

I've recently upgraded to CS5 and the Media Encoder creates incredibly HUGE files compared to the CS4 media encoder.
 
For example, I can convert a 15MB mpg file to a 12 MB flv file in CS4 using the preset  "FLV same as source"
 
I do not find a matching preset in CS5, but tried "FLV - match source atributes (medium quality)"  Encoding the same file in CS5 with this preset results in 170MB file.
 
I've tried adjusting the settings, comparing the options in both versions, and I still can't get a reasonably sized file out of the CS5 media encoder.
 
This seems really broken to me.  A 170 MB file is not useful in any way.  Do I have bad presets?
 
Adobe Media Encoder version is 5.0.1.0  (32-bit)

Professional :: Encoding Video At A Larger Size?

Feb 11, 2011

Given:I encode video at 600kbpsI set the video to display by default at 448x336 (4:3)Users can set the video to display at full screen (let's say full screen = 1280x960)I can only provide one video resolution to cover all scenarios .Is there any logic to encoding the video for the larger size of 1280x960? Am I wrong in thinking:

Video encoded at 1280x960 and displayed at this size will look better than video encoded at 448x336 and enlarged to 1280x960; andThere will be minimal difference between video encoded at 1280x960 (and shrunk to 448x336) and video encoded at 448x336.

Professional :: Keep Image Size Slightly Larger For A Better Quality?

Feb 10, 2012

I set my images at 60% quality JPG files out of photoshop which seems to give a very nice representation. I set up a site to take a full screen, so I expect it to be larger on a bigger screen then what I see on mine. I figured to keep every image actual size at about 25% bigger when the finlal needed size in the layout, so if the site is ever on the bigger screen then images have some stored resolution to be enlarged and accomodate an increase in size. So all of mine images are scaled at about 75%.
 
Is it a good practise or things don't work this way in Flash? Perhaps it is better to keep the images to 100% (rather than importing intentially enlarges images) but make the maximum quality? Or both ways kind of work out?
