Professional :: Adobe Flex Application Scale To Fit The Users Screen?
Jul 3, 2010
I have been looking on google and couldn't find a answer. I have a application I created in adobe flex and I need it to scale to the users screen and fill the entire browser window no matter what.
I'm developing a Flex application that is designed for screen resolutions of 1280x1024 and more. In the rare case that a projector is used (which usually has a maximum of 1024x768 pixels) I'd like to scale down the application (currently I get lots of scrollbars and clipping).
I've already experimented with the application's properties scaleX and scaleY as well as stage.scaleMode. However, I couldn't quite figure out a way to
render the application without scaling when the application's width and height are larger than certain values use scaling when the width or height are smaller than certain values
Making an Flex App. Just wondering if anyone has created something that fits automatically to the users' screen size and how I go about doing this? One of the principle things is that I need an background image, which is obviously going to have to scale / resize to match the users screen.
I have a flash application. One of the options is to copy a pdf onto the users desktop, but I can not seem to get it to work. I am writing a flash application that sends "fscommands" out to batch files. This is what my batch file looks like:---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------@ echo off copy ../Application/pdf/Ebook.pdf %userprofile%Desktop exit---------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------My intent is to copy the specified file to the user's desktop. So far it does not function.
How would you be able to connect 2 users ( that are known and have a user account on my site) in a flex app together using rtmfp?I have a simple flex game app where I want 2 users to be connected to each other. There is a simple SQL database in the background for storing the users, but after this I'm unable to figure out how I would connect the 2 users.tmfp generates a unique ID that you can use to connect 2 users together?Im looking for a good tutorial info resource or an example app that demonstates connecting 2 users, or just an explanation
Adobe flash: How to determine users CPU characteristics? (its mhz, its current ocupation) I need to know how fast is users computer now, and I have only 150 ms for it. How to do such thing in actionscript?
I'm trying to develop a simple mxml Flex application to start Skype from the AIR/Flashplayer runtime. Is it possible to get back events from a native Windows application? In the simple example of Skype, the OS returns control to the Flex app when Skype exits. But what about native applications which have their own event model and wants to communicate with the Flex event model. For example, a Face detection system which shows "Hello" on a Flex app when the camera detects a face. Can this be done in the current Flex framework?
I am working on an Adobe AIR Application. The size on Application window is 800X600 and is contains border container and border container contains many controls. What I want is to if user re-sizes the application then that container should also be re-sized according to scale. i.e If user maximizes or minimizes the window then that border container should also be maximized or minimized respectively.
I have a native (Obj-C, standard Xcode project) application and I'd like to integrate a partners iOS application (or specifically, it's functionality) into it as just another view in my application. The problem is that their application is a Flex/Air app. I really don't understand the Adobe compilation process on how it gets from a bunch of flex code down to an IPA. I don't see intermediate projects, shared objects, etc on the disk to produce that IPA. It looks like it doesn't rely on the Apple tool chain... as I understand it, you can produce the IPA on Windows as well. Is there any way to build that Flex app in such a way that I can import it into Xcode so I can link against it and use it as a library from within my application? While I specifically used iOS as an example since that is the most important platform, we'll want to apply this solution to our respective Android and Blackberry 6 apps as well.
Does anyone know if adobe flash player cache data is available to other users on a system? For example: A user logs onto Windows XP, then uses my adobe flex application... and in the process of doing so downloads the signed flex lib... He then decides to mow the lawn and log off. At about 3pm the same day, his Mum can't hear the TV over the sound of the mower, so she decides to log in using a different XP user account. She proceeds to use the very same flex application. Does she also need to download the flex lib again, or would the data already be cached in the flash player?
Fullscreen mode and I have been battling for a while in this Flex application, and I'm coming up short on Google results to end my woes. I have no problem going into fullscreen mode by doing a Application.application.stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;, but the rest of the content just sits there in the top, left corner at it's original size.
All right, says I, I'll just do a stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL and make it figure out how to pull this off. And it looks like it does. Except that when you mouse over the individual checkboxes and buttons and various components, they all fidget slightly. Just a slight jump up or down as they resize...on mouse over. Well, this is frustrating, but bearable. I can always just invoke invalidateSize() explicitly for all of them.
But for the comboboxes. The ones at the bottom have their menus go off the bottom of the screen, and when I pop out of fullscreen mode, their drop downs cut off half way. I have no idea how to fix that. Can someone step in here, and put me out of my misery?
What is the right way to scale a Flex application up to fullscreen?[code]...
if I create a simple app with stratus tecnology and I get millions of users, then how can I scale the application ? How chatroulette have resolved the scaling issue ?
I have a quite different problem with resizing. I have a Flexbook component which uses the middle part of screen (center) with a html header menu and footer. The problem: The scaling works perfectly when we run in the local machine ( Flexbuilder). But when we deploy it to the server its like scaling never existed.. The requirement: when user maximizes the window or minimizes it, the Flexbook should be resized to fit the screen.
I am still struggling with transforming my app build in Java/Eclipse to Flex/Actionscript with Flashbuilder.Now I can not find how I should implement an image to cover the hole screen.[code]...
The problem that I'm facing is in regards to the width of a sliding menu that I've created. The menu slides based on mouse x position and width of the movie. I would like the menu to fit to the entire screen regardless of the users resolution. I wanted to know if there's a way to detect a users screen width and then adjust the variable for screen width within my actionscript .fla if necessary.
I want to create a fairly large-scale Flex web application that has a similar interface style to Grooveshark.
When it comes to web development, I have always used the common PHP/HTML/JavaScript technologies. Now, I want to try something new and develop a RIA using Flex.
Using PHP/HTML/JavaScript, I am able to develop my entire website with free tools. Now, I'm wondering if I am able to do the same thing with a Flex web application?
Is it possible/feasible to develop a Flex web application for free? If not, what would be the lowest cost I would need to spend? And, whatever the option, what are the tools that would be needed?
I'm developing an application for the Blackberry Playbook using Flash Burrito 4.5 and Flex. I'd like to create a file browser to allow users to load images from the local system into the application. I followed this example [URL] When I click on the Load Image button in the simulator however, the file browser pops up but tells me that "no file was found with the specified filter", even though I don't specify any filter or even if I specify a . filter.
Is there a way that I can find out the screen resolution of a users screen? I want to add scroll bars for users with a resolution lower than 1440X900 and if u have 1440x900 or greater it wont show the scroll bars.
with that one? When I am trying to run Flash after install I get this error message: You can't open the application Adobe Flash CS4.app because it may be damaged or incomplete.

I couldn't launch under Leopard (10.5.x) either.
I'd like my application to be pretty light so it loads quickly. So i'd like to place all my assets (XML files, graphics, etc) outside from the main Air file and when the main Air file is loaded into memory, I'd like it to load in the asset files at runtimeSo how do I go about telling Flash builder to save my asset files locally when it packages my Air Application and also ensure I can access these files while debudding my application?
I've already built a flash 10 flex application which use the p2p feature (I'm using a developer key to connect to stratus), currently everything works fine. Now I want my application to run on Adoble Air Runtime, but it seems that p2p does not work for Air. I can successfully connect to stratus server in Air application, but after that, when I try to use NetConnection.nearID, an error occurs saying:"ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property nearID not found on flash.net.NetConnection and there is no default value."I've tried flex sdk 3.2 and 3.4, and neither of them works. Does anyone ever developed an Air Application that use p2p and can provide some hints?
I am building an offline [URL] application in Adobe Flex. Can we use [URL] Rich Text Area fields in the offline application? I do not see the field returned in a query.
[ X ] Problem solved I just came up with something i have some trouble to handle I've tried a couple of solution but none seems to work perfectly
What I'm trying to do is simple, get my flash to go full screen, but whatever resolution the user has, my flash must centers itself with the biggest proportion possible, and two movie clips goes right and left of it, as if they were borders.
I've been able to do this with a simple png, but i was not able with a movieclip where his dimension changes through time. ( i have a tween, so the mc gets really big even though just my stage is displayed)
Does anyone know how I would load up a flex application and on load the application would open on a different tab within the application. The only thing I can think of is sending a parameter into the application to tell it where to go, but how does the app load that tab then?
I am trying to create my own certificate for a adobe air application, I created one already based on this link[url]...
But when I install my application the publisher field is still set with unknown, which is at the end what I am trying to do, I need to set the publisher with one specific value.
I am developing an Adobe Air app. I need to set an icon to the app so it is shown on the task bar. I added the icon tag to the descriptor file but it is not working and I really don't know why
Brand new PC, Windows 7, worked fine for couple of days until I installed Flash Player 10 Active X - now the operating system continually crashes around after 5 mins each time I reboot.Error message"problem starting C:ProgramFiles(x86)NOSingetPlus_Helper.dllthe specified module could not be found"Having search the web, which suggested a possible problem with Flash Player 10 installation, I removed this downloaded this file: uninstall_flash_player.exe and ran to uninsall), but Adobe Download Manager is still in the list - trying to uninstall the DLM just gives the same error message as above.
