I need to know the available screen space in my current AIR app, but when I use stage.nativeWindow.width and stage.nativeWindow.height, I get the size of the window including the title bar. I'd like to know the "inner size", so excluding the title bar. How do I do this?

View 1 RepliesI 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.

View 9 RepliesCan I get the obtain the size of the browser window in AS3?The best method I've found is to get the size with Javascript and send it to Flash as a FlashVar.

View 3 RepliesWhat is the reason for the enormass bloating of FLA file size, when many edits and saves are made to a FLA file, yet assets are not being added to the library? What is the best technique to keep FLA files smaller in size? (with the problem described below. I am not talking about published SWF files or asset management)Over many edits and many saves of my FLA files, they become 30 times the size on disk from where they start out. Example 750k can get as high as 34mb. In the past "save and compact" used to fill the role of reducing FLA file sizes but now that feature is gone.When I save as a CS4 file then back to CS5 the file becomes much smaller after it has become bloated, BUT I take a risk every time I do this that the file will become corrupted (I've had corruptions happen).I have read that files which were created in CS5 and are never in the format of CS4 don't have this problem, but I find that theory unlikely since I have tried to follow this rule to no success.
I have also read that every FLA file tracks its "history" of assets. So adding and removing assets to the library will sometimes cause bloating because old assets that are removed from the library remain in the FLA file. This seems bogus because there is no purpose to this, but could be an indication of a bug in Adobe Flash Professional CS5, and CS5.5.Personal details: the files I am editing contain personally created flash components, images, audio, many symbols (20+) but no embedded video.For me personally, this bloating is a problem because I'm dealing with hundreds of flash FLA files that should be about 1-4mb in size but are instead much larger. The overall effect is that I end up with gigabytes of files instead of hundreds of mbs.
is possible to dynamically change the dimensions of my flash stage depending on the size of the browser window ?
Very important, I don't want to stretch any element. Just make the background bigger.

View 1 RepliesIn my game people shoot at 4 different moving images and get points. Simple right? Well one of the images is a question mark that people can shoot and when they do, I need flash to pause the game timer, pop up a new window, display the multiple choice question in the window and wait for the user to answer. I would also like to be able to customize the size and location of the pop up window!
Then if the question is answered correctly close window award 10 points and continue the game. If the question is answered incorrectly, say wrong and then display the end game results screen. Right now I have it to where it opens a pop up in a web browser and askes the question there. The question is randomly chosen from a file called random.html. But I do not want the game to operate that way. I want the game to open the pop up within flash.
I can only do so much with flash. I am having issues with linking to a video. Here is my question: please refer to [URL] and click on the video link. I have 3 videos that I want people to view when they click on the links:
- SI TU T'EN VAS (2001)
- GWADA (2004)
- JODIA (2008)
I need the links to be able to open a popup window in flash with 320X240 in size.
1- I imported each video in flash (separatly) using the 30rates/frames, progressive dowload from webserver. (the usual).
2- I allready uploaded the videos (.swf and .flv) on the server (godaddy.com)
3- In my main file, I created a button for each one of the links above using the invisible button with their own instances. they are each on a different layer.
I'm pretty new to Flash. I have slowly built up an .fla file to its current size of 44MB. It is in AS3 (CS4) and has numerous jpegs imported into it with animated masks over each.I am now experiencing multiple issues that have made it impossible to work on it.
1. A week ago I started occasionally getting "Flash has has unexpectedly quit" error messages, whereupon Flash would crash. This was before I started adding many of the jpegs and the file size was still something like 5MB. Now I receive these messages almost constantly - If I try to open a second file within Flash or when I just work in my main file for a few minutes.
2. A few days I ago I started getting a few random messages saying "error initializing java runtime environment you may need to reinstall flash". This was fixed by simply restarting Flash, but still troublesome.
3. Rarely I would finish working on something and try to test the movie. It would go through the loading bar, but then nothing would happen. The only way to fix this was to go back to a previous file version and rebuild from there. My current file save has this problem.
Now I am stuck because I have to go back quite a ways to find a file that will successfully test. On top of that if I try to import one of my new movieClips into the older file version, Flash of course crashes.
Is the file too big? It doesn't feel like I'm doing that much. I've definately seen flash sites that have way more going on than mine. Could it be all the imported jpegs? Could I be importing them in a bad way? How can I avoid/fix these issues?
I want to put a movieclip with tools at the bottom of the window in the center with tools icons, it should have fixed posiiton so that user can scroll the main window having it always on prompt. I think I need the browser window size properties to do somenthing as this. Is there a way to get them?
