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?

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).

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?

I have a few classes in my project which aren't display objects, but they need to know about the stage of my project (stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight). Is there a simple way to pass this information along to my classes without using a Singleton or passing these items in as parameters into the constructor??

was wondering if someone could tell me how to modify this code so i can export the stage at its dimensions in pixels. Right now the script saves the stage without bounds, unconstrained. I need it to draw the stage at its default 1280x720 stage size and whatever is within the stage bounds, not whats off the stage bounds
function createJPG(m:MovieClip, q:Number, fileName:String)
{
var jpgSource:BitmapData = new BitmapData (m.width, m.height);
jpgSource.draw(m);

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.

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?

I have a CMain class that extends MovieClip and sets:
Code:
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
The scale mode works properly for any children movieclips added directly to the CMain class, however, any children added one layer deeper get scaled when the resize event occurs. I imagined that once the stage scale mode was set, that it would "trickle" down to any movie clips being added to it.
Im basically trying to put together a multi layered swf in which I handle all of the scaling.

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;

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.

hello everybody. I have a very weird problem. Recently my Flash IDE started to mess up dimensions. I mean when I create a new document or a rectangle for example, even if I set the height and width to the same value the height is always bigger than the width... I tried re-installing Flash CS4 again but that didn't solve the problem...

I have to create a demo loop that will play on a 32" TV at a convention center booth. This .swf will also be repurposed on a webpage after the convention.What's the best pixel dimension to create the flash stage? If I create it at 1024 x 768 to fit safely within a browser, any idea how it will look when viewed on a TV? Will it look distorted? How do I compensate for fact that the TV may be 1080p or it may be 720.... and still have it work on a typical web page?

A DisplayObjectContainer's dimensions change based on its contents.
That can be a LOT of contents, many of them with visible = false or masked, thus making them hidden. Is there a way to get only the visible contents of a DisplayObjectContainer similar to a TextField has the textHeight property, which gives you the exact dimension of what you see on-screen.

I'm creating a media player (mostly video but with some graphical interfaces) that has a full-screen mode. However, before going fullscreen it's relatively small (about 620x340) and going fullscreen would typically be about double the resolution. What is the best way to prepare the videos and assets in the file so they look good at fullscreen and at the smaller size? I want to also keep the file size to a minimum (within reason).

How do I set the width and height of a loaded image in Flash? Setting the dimensions immediately after requesting it does not work. The width and height remain zero.[code]If I wait a short moment and then set the dimensions, it will work.I tried listening for the Event.INIT event and Event.COMPLETE events before resizing as suggested by some tutorials. Neither of the events were triggered.[code]
