Css :: Positioning And Sizing A Flash Element Properly In A Div?
Jan 19, 2010
Here is the code I'm using for the div in question (which is the 3rd box of the javascript dynamic box):
<div class="contentdiv" style="margin:-20px 0 10px -30px;">
<object height="100%" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0">
<param name="movie" value="images/tri.swf">
[Code]....
I want the .swf graphic to fit the div just like the image in box #5 does.
Right now I can't get it to be either the proper size or the proper alignment. I'm admittedly not a Flash expert, so any clues would be great here.
Also, other stuff on the page is totally broken because this is just the "dev" version of the site where I test stuff out. So hopefully that can all be ignored.

I am working on a flex app that uses XML templates to dynamically create DisplayObjects. These templates define different layouts that can be used for each page of content in the app (ie , 2 columns, 3 columns etc etc). The administrator can select from one of these and populate each area with their content.
The templates add one of 3 types of DisplayObject - HBox, VBox or a third component - LibraryContentContainer (an mxml component that is defined as part of the app) - which is effectively a canvas element with a TextArea inside. The problem that I am getting is that I need each of these areas to automatically resize to fit the length of the content but don't seem to be able to find an effective way to do so.
In the LibraryContentContainer, when the value of the TextArea is set, I am calling .validateNow() on the LibraryContentContainer. I then set the height property on both the TextArea and LibraryContentContainer to match the textHeight property of the TextArea. In the following example, this is the LibraryContentContainer, viewer is the TextArea and the value property of the TextArea is bound to this.__Value. v is the variable containing the content for the textarea

I've set the publish settings to 100% width and 100% height and have then added the 'noScale' function into the first frame of my timeline. Here is an idea of what I'm trying to create:
I have three movieclips that are touching the left side of the Stage and want them to touch the left side of the browser but centre vertically. I can do this by adding the 'Stage.align = LC' command, but not sure if this is the right way to go about it.
The movieclip that is on top contains a logo and I want it to have a fixed size. I called the instance name 'logo_mc'.
The movieclip below 'logo_mc' is called 'container_mc' and is a strip of photographs that I need to run from the left to the right side of the browser no matter what the browser size. I need this movieclip to scale proportionally up and down as they viewer resizes their browser so the first photo is touching the left side of the browser and the last picture is touching the right side (without distorting).
The final movieclip is called 'buttons_mc' and is right below the 'container_mc' clip. This movieclip needs to remain a fixed size.
Obviously when the 'container_mc' clip resizes I need the other movieclips to move up and down to stay the same distance above and below the 'container_clip'.
Example of what I am trying to create: [URL]

I want to put together a flash gallery of photography for my photography business. I am very good at Photoshop design, html, css, javascript but I am a novice with flash. I can use it and use some actionscripting but my knowledge is limited.
I see galleries like this one: [URL]
The images expand and contract perfectly as the browser is resized. I am used to having to size pics for the lowest res screens (I design for 1024 width resos's usually).
What size should I make pictures to work like this... Does flash scale them down / up / either... are there quality issues with letting flash manage the sizing.

I have a for loop updating a dynamic text element but it seems to iterate so fast that only the last item in the loop is updating the text. I'd like the dynamic text element to be updated with EACH item in the loop, not just the last.

I have flash where there is a link for song download. And, at the bottom of the flash I've a count, loaded thorugh flash vars which should increment everytime donload button is hit. Please let me know what approach should i take to do that. can i call a Java method on donload button which will insert a row in the table and and then get the count and render it to the count variable in my flash?
May be this extremely confusing. Here is a very similar example on how it is done. This is actually very similar to what i want to do. [URL] on this link there is count below which increments you hit the download button.

I have a flash document that I want to always take up the entire web page. Setting to 100% width & 100% height doesn't do the trick, because if the window dimensions aren't right, white space will show on the sides/top and bottom.
Is there a way to get the window dimensions are say if window height > window width : flash movie = window height (and vice versa)?

I'm trying to make an online TCG and I'm starting out by creating the table and card stacks. I've set it up where I have a table which holds stacks. The stacks hold cards, and the cards hold a front and back image. Really simple. So I thought. For some reason, the card is re-sizing to fit the screen. Even though a trace shows that the width and height are correct. Here is an example:n all reality, it should be about the height of the white box with the "A" in it, in the top left hand corner. The only place where I explicitly set a width and height is setting the table width and height. The table, Stack, and card are all sublasses of the flash Sprite class. Since there are 4 seperate files for the example above, if someone would need to look at the code,

I just did two 100% Flash sites. I always size my sites 1024 by 768 or a bit smaller. I have never had a problem with it not fitting in the browser. I exported with Flash HTML at 100%, no scale.I tested these sites on Safari and IE on different monitor sizes. They looked great.
Both of my clients are using Firefox said it cuts the bottom off by about and inch or so. I did some research and this seems Firefox does this. I read this article below and wanted to know the following:[URL]
1 - Is this the best way to fix it? Or have I developed these sites too big for FF.
2 - Is there something else I could do (i.e. export the HTML a different way?).
3 - Should I size differently in the future?I would like to prevent me having to resize the stage and change all the objects.

[URL] how to build something like that with controllable column numbers, width and images that might be using XML.the main thing is how to accomplish such an effect?P.S. I've developed an Image Slider using Flash Builder 4.5 The problem is that when I included that in HTML page when someone performs ZOOM with CTRL+ Mouse wheel in a browser, the DIV that holds my SWF file and SWF file itself increases in size but the image itself that is inside my slider still remains of the same size.. How to fix it?

We are building a flash based product (coded in flash builder) and need to ensure that the font size is readable for all standard screen resolutions- we coded fontsize to be a fraction of screen dimensions... still we find that it looks smaller on low resolution and larger on higher resolution
we dont have this problem with other assets like containers/images etc
why this happens? Any thoughts on how we can make it uniform across screen resolutions?

I know that there is no such function as getElementByName in Flex but I also now that you can do this["object_id"] to get the element of the application u're in.What about getting an element inside another element?I've tried making element["id"] ? But in my try-catch it always runs the "catch" part..how do I get an element inside another element just having it's id in dynamically created string form?

I've built a rather robust tooltip class recently that attaches and draws a single tooltip sprite to the root, then uses MOUSE_OVER to detect when it is over a tooltippable object, and shows the appropriate tooltip text. At the moment, I'm ensuring that any elements in my application which wants to take advantage of showing tooltips implement the ITooltippable interface, and expose a public getter, get tooltip().

Basically I have 14 text boxes, each box draws its content from an external txt file. Next to each text box is a button. I want the button to be either visible=true or visible=false depending on weather or not the text box has content or is "undefined" Here is what I have so far, and it's not working:[code] I would like a FOR loop to just run through the variables and check to see if any of them are undefined. if it is, then make the correct send button invisible.

I built an app in flash where you can rotate objects and save positions and rotation to xml.... that xml then feeds html to produce a layout that is then rendered the a pdf It seems that every time it goes to the html, a rotated object in positioned a little to the lower right then the position in flash.
I know the rotation in css in different, but I think if I can find the true top left of the rotated object in flash and pass that it will solve the issue.
I tried this
newx = imageHolder.parent.localToGlobal(new Point(imageHolder.x,0)).x;
newy = imageHolder.parent.localToGlobal(new Point(0,imageHolder.y)).y;
also this imageHolder.parent.globalToLocal(imageHolder.localToGlobal(imageHolder.getBounds(imageHolder).topLeft));
neither work. Is there something else?

I always run into the same bug concerning the x and y positioning of a Movie clip. When I try to get the X and Y values of a movie clip inside another movie clip, they aren't the same values (since I guess every MC has it's own x,y grid starting at point 0,0 where that MC is placed on the work area). How do I get the x and y values of a MC inside another MC when I want those values to be the same as the _root's x and y values? In other words: The movie clip that is inside the other one is moving on a simple guide path. I want to create "lasers" (or whatever) at its own coordinates every few seconds depending on where that moving MC is at when the shooting counter is up.

You know how you can choose where the center of a symbol is when you make it? Top right, center, bottom left, etc. Well, I'm editing a symbol and the graphics have gone pretty far off center, so I'm wondering if there's a way to make it recenter itself without recreating the symbol. If not, what's the best alternative, such as a way to move around the point?

I am designing a website which will have four hover buttons in the corners and flash content in the middle:
I am using the following code for the buttons which works fine:
HTML:
div.container { position:relative; }
img.positioned { position:absolute; height:63px; width:122px; }
img#topleft { top:0; left:0; }
[Code]...
But I am having difficulty positioning the flash content.
What would be the correct html and css code to position the 4 buttons with a hover effect and the flash content.

I have a TabNavigator with custom skins on the buttons and inside the content. I want to put an image behind the individual Tabs. One long bar of about 20px high that runs the width of the control. The buttons and the navigator content are both spark components while the actual tab navigator control group is of type mx. The only property I can change is the background color. Is there a way I can just tell the background to position itself as top="-10" or something similar or do I need to go the CSS route?

I'm trying to make a minigame in Flash about a mosquito getting smashed and I want the mosquito sound to pan as if it was in front of the player (so if the mosquito is at the right of the screen pan would be 1, and -1 in the left).Problem is, I can only use the sound transform in the play method, which leaves me with many sounds playing if I want to update the position of the mosquito (which happens on enterframe, 24fps).

I am looking for a tutorial on Absolute Positioning in Flash. I have noticed a ton of sites where something will stay in a spacific area. For instance in my new site, i am looking to give credit to people. I want it to be a hitTest area that stays on the bottom of the screen no matter how large or small the movie gets with a limit on the small side so it stops getting smaller when the screen is smaller than 800 x 600. This way the movie clip will expand depending upon the users screen size but the content of the hidden area will stay the same size so it does not distort. I think Solenior(sp) did this and maybe a few others. I am looking to learn the actions script behind it not just a "here you go" type of deal. I want to really learn AS not just copy and paste it.

I can't get the content to center correctly when the browser window is resized. Despite efforts of trying to make the design work within all screen resolutions, it still does not fit correctly on smaller ones. What I want is for the content to center itself completely - Right now it only centers from left to right. Here is the code.
Code:
// Aligns everything to the top left side
Stage.align = "TL";
// Disables the movie from scaling
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
[code]....
The first thing I tried was simply adding all_mc._y = Stage.width/2; to the start values and the sizeListener, which worked until you clicked on the navigation and the all_mc movieclip is moved to a new X coordinate. It moves fine, but when you try to resize the browser, it jumps the movieclip back up to the top and moves back down again.

As shown in the example... I have entered an action to load a movie when I press a button.It works fine but the original swf was made at 800 by 600 when I need it to be 400 by 200.Is there a way to have the video loaded smaller using some kind of width and height line to the command above?I don't want to have to go redue the swf I am loading in...In the swf, I am working on this for class, so It is not finished or have any real sense to it, other than what is required by the teacher

I'm adding text to a movieclip as you can see below. The text is alomost not visible because it's so small. If I don't scale the movieclip then the text becomes clipped. I basically want the movieclip to be a tight container (the same size as the textfield) for the Textfield. The below does not work. How can I do this?
