Flash :: Meta Tag In Project Can't Handle Percentage Width/height Values?
Apr 5, 2011
I have an ActionScript project set up using the Flash Builder IDE. Using the Flex 4 compiler to compile it. At the top of my application class, I have:
[SWF(width="100%", height="100%")]
public class MediaPlayer extends MovieClip {
This is not acceptable to the compiler to do a release (it throws errors saying it can't parse the width/height values). Pretty annoying. I've tried to do things the "right" way, but none of the following work:
[Code]...
So the width and height attributes are being explicitly set to numbers here. I don't know much about the 'scale' attribute; maybe it is coming in to play here? And, to be clear: it will work as expected if I set the [SWF] meta tag to have width "100%" and height "100%"... so it seems like it actually is preferring the compiled arguments over the browser environment. Perhaps there are other settings I am missing?

I have a ViewStack which is dataProvider for a TabBar. There are two VBoxs as children for this ViewStack. It works fine with absolute values for width and height for these VBoxs, but when specified in percentages, the VBox uses all the available space (100%) for any percentage value. find the code and screen shots below.
how can children of a ViewStack be aligned to center? There is no horizontalAlign property for ViewStack and it is not working with horizontalCenter= "0".
Code:
<mx:ViewStack id="viewStack" width="100%" height="100%" selectedIndex="0" horizontalCenter="0" textAlign="center">
<mx:VBox label="Tab 1" width="25%" height="10%" borderThickness="2" borderColor="red"

How can I limit the size of a child container with percentage width/height of 100%?
Example:
<mx:HBox id="container" width="100%" height="100%">
<mx:HBox id="scrollContainer" width="100%" height="100%">
<!-- keep this content limited to the size of "container" -->

Apparently I can get the desired behavior if I change HBox to Canvas but I would still like to know how to accomplish this with a HBox and why it differs from Canvas.

I am trying to reference to top level (stage) width and height of the main stage for the placement of something located inside a movieclip on the stage.
My code is:
Code:
my_loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - my_loader.width)/2;
my_loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - my_loader.height)/2;
But this seems to just relate to the width/height of the mc that my_loader is nested in...
I have tried the following and had no luck:
stage.stage.stageWidth
root.stage.stageWidth
parent.stage.stageWidth
MovieClip(root).stage.stageWidth

i have a website that has a illustrated panoramic landscape which slides alone when the user clicks different pages. but when reading the stageHeight and width values i get the width of these movieclips not the actual stage size being viewed on the screen.
so instead of getting the height 1000 and width 700 i get the height as 1800 and the width of 6000 how can get around this?

I would like to use a movieclip to load a flv video. The problem I have is that I want to change the video dimensions. I've tried several software to change the video dimensions but as far as it seems all of them keep the same height-width ratio than in the original video. Is there any software that would allow me to change the height and width without keeping the same height/width ratio as in the original video file?

I'm having a bit of trouble with this logic. My setup is typical, with a content MC and a handle MC the runs along a track with specified bounds. All I want to do is have the handle height adjust based on content height but in relation to the track height?

I am looking at the SimpleButton entirely wrong. Here's what I'm doing (inside of a MovieClip):
[Code]...
the close_btn.width and height remain 0. Am I supposed to just rely on the DisplayObject members of the SimpleButton completely and ignore width/height/x/y or what?

differencePercentage = Math.round(((Pay.init / Pay.current) * 100) - 100);
and that gives me the difference in percent between initial and current pay, but it's reversed. When it's positive i.e. pay is above the initial value it says -X%, and when it's below it says X%.

I'm trying to edit an HTML that uses swfobject to load a flash file.
What I'm trying to do is to reduce the size of the SWF file.
I've tried editing the height and width parameter within the swfobject(), but that didn't work.
I tried reducing the width height in the HTML css, but that also didn't work..
How can I pass a 'width' or a 'height' parameter to the swfobject so it will actually load the swf in a smaller or 'zoomed out' way?

I'm loading a flash MovieClip (Test.swf) like below. The problem is I can't read the size of mc (mc.width and mc._width both return 0, for the height as well), but I need to scale it. I have the stage size, I can scale, but I don't have the size of Test.swf, so I can't scale it to fit into the stage... ActionScript2, not actionscript3. If it was 3, I could get the value from the loader, but with as2??? The problem is I don't have control over the swf I load, so I can't put it's dimensions in the first frame...

trace(root.width);
trace(stage.width);
Both these return 100. Same for height. The stage has been set to 1024x620 in the editor.I'm using CS5, Flash version 10, windows7 64-bit.I don't get what's going wrong here. I'm trying to center something and it keeps coming out like this.

I thought this would be straight forward but I'm having trouble repositioning my content. I have a button instance named rollOne, When I roll over the button I want to load an swf object but not on top of the button so I want to find out what the button's width is so I can reposition the dynamically loaded content. I thought rollOne.width would return the width, but it only returns 0 the same goes for height.
rollOne.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, fetchQty);
function fetchQty(event:MouseEvent):void {
myContainer.x = (rollOne.x + rollOne.width);
myContainer.y = (rollOne.y + rollOne.height);
var img1Request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("8032697883620.swf");
var img1Loader:Loader = new Loader();
img1Loader.load(img1Request);
myContainer.addChild(img1Loader);
trace(rollOne.width);
}

I've come to notice recently while using bitmap objects in the Flash CS5 (maybe before as well) authoring environment that are less than 4 pixels in width and/or height that they are treated as though they are 4 pixels wide/tall. Many of the bitmaps I use are 1 px wide in one direction or the other, and they are stretched to fill an area. Lets say I have a bitmap that is 20px tall and 1 px wide, and I stretch it to be 100px wide. The "hit area" of the object, or parent objects that contain it, is 400 px wide. So even if you click a significant distance away from the object, it is still selected, and anything underneath that invisible area can't be selected.
I've also noticed that when exporting a frame as an image, the smallest the width/height may be is 4px, and when I click the Edit button in the Properties panel with a Bitmap instance selected, it opens up in Photoshop CS5 and is 4 pixels wide! I'm wondering if for some reason Flash can't handle bitmaps less than 4 pixels in width/height and is treating it as if it IS 4 pixels wide, possibly even adding 3 extra columns of transparent pixels, because if I do the same thing manually, naturally it acts identical to the way Flash treats the 1px wide version. But why? Why can't Flash handle small bitmaps? Seems to me that's more efficient than quadrupling the amount of memory required.

Is there a way to get a jpg's image and height (before dynamically loaded) within flash? The only way I could do it was to load the image into a containerMC, but I would like to do it before the image loads. the only other way I could think of was to send the image link to a php script and returning its height/width to flash.

having a problem with loading in different swf files into the stage. If I use a empty movieclip (holder) nothing shows up but when I set the width and height of the holder_mc the swf files show up but are zoomed in for some reason.

x.ignoreWhite = true;

I am trying to use IE8's IWebBrowser2 interface to obtain a webpage's embedded flash's url, height, width information. This flash can be generated by javascript. So I did like this: from IWebBrowser2 I got IHTMLElementCollection，then I iterated through the collection to get IHTMLObjectElement2，and finally called get_data() to get flash's url.
But when I tried to extract flash object's url for [URL], get_data() returned "null". Why is this?So what's the difference between IHTMLObjectElement2 and IHTMLElement2? What's the right way to obtain IHTMLElement2 from IWebBrower2?
