Does anyone know how to get the width and height in ActionScript for a Flex application running inside the flash player in the web browser.
e.g. In the web browser I can use the tag to embed a Flex application (as a .swf). To the embed tag, I can provide the dimensions. I would like to get these dimensions inside the flex application action script.
I've been trying to find the answer for about 3 days now.. I'm not even sure if it is possible to do but I've seen a lot of full browser flash's I'm just wondering if its possible to limit it to a certain height but have it go any browser width while keeping the content in the center and not scaling it down to any size..
View 1 RepliesHow to open a browser window at a specified width and height. I want the window to be say 300 x 300. I am using actionscript and this is my code. I am using flash 8.
on (press) {
getURL("E-Mail List.html","_blank");
This then opens a page in dreamweaver. I suspect I have to use some javascript in the dreamweaver page.

View 2 RepliesI 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
On my website, I display uploaded PDF files in a flash player for my users to read. I already use various tools to extract the text and produce a serious of high quality images from the file and the system works well. The last piece of the puzzle is to be able to highlight specific parts of the document to help users with accessibility issues.
However I cannot figure out how to calculate where the specific text is positioned on the page? Notes: The documents uploaded to the system are from 3rd parties, so fonts may be embedded. Meaning that I cannot be sure of the width of specific letters. The text to be highlighted may not be unique, the same text may be repeated How can I calculate the coordinates, height and width of a specific piece of text on a PDF, so that I can then draw a box around it?
When I publish my FLV video using Flash CS3 and the "SkinUnderAll" option...the player controls are not visible unless I change the height & width in the html file Flash created.But, Flash shows the height & width 3-times in the html.
Question-1: Why 3-times? What does each of the 3 Height & Width references do?
Question-2: How should I modify the code to be able to see the entire video and the player controls?
It seems if I change all 3 everything just gets bigger and bigger.
1 - I import it into Flash CS3 on a PC w/XP Pro using... File | Import | Video take all the defaults and choose "Skin Under All" as the player option.
2 - In "Properties" panel at bottom of screen Flash shows the video as 640x480
3 - I then click File | Publish to publish the video. Flash creates all my files for me.
MyVideo.fla
MyVideo.flv
MyVideo.html
MyVideo.swf
SkinUnderAll.swf
AC_RunActiveContent.js
4 - I then put the folder with the files on my website.
5 - The video plays but the player controls are not visible.
6 - I see the Height & Width referenced 3 times in the html file Flash created for me (and none are 640x480, they are 550x400 !)
7 - I try changing the 550x400 to 640x480 in all three places... no good. Even at 1000x1000 the entire player is not visible. Everything just gets larger.
What are each of the 3 references to Height and Width in the html file Flash Creates and which should I change to simply show all the player controls?

View 1 RepliesI built out a scrolling Flash application that currently resizes the browser to whatever the full-screen res of the user's monitor is... I'm kind of indifferent about it.Anyhow, I'd like to be able to set the browser size to a specific height / width instead of taking up 100% of the user's screen real-estate.
View 1 RepliesI have a Fla with many movieclips arranged on it. I've figured out how to reposition them dynamically in AS 2 using a listener (i.e. nav stays at bottom, main content in center regardless of user changing window size, etc.).
Now I want to add another movieclip ("vid_bg" is the instance name) which always resizes to be the width and height of the browser. Think of it as a movieclip background under the other content that stretches to fill the browser.

I have been trying to resize my swf width and height to the browser size for the past 10 days...this is what I was able to get so far

View 0 RepliesThe Flash site I'm working on is causing Flash player to crash, both inside the browser (taking Firefox down with it) and inside the Flash IDE (taking Flash CS4 down with it) --this is regarding Flash Player 10,0,22,87 (debug version)
The exact point of crash varies considerably and no Flash errors appear, so I can't pinpoint the problem to any particular code. I thought there must be a nasty memory leak somewhere, but since I've started monitoring that (via System.totalMemory) that doesn't appear to be the problem. I thought maybe using hardware acceleration might be the cause, but turning it off hasn't made a difference. I'm using PaperVision3D Great White. Not using full screen--at least not YET. I'm streaming some video, streaming some audio... I don't know what's left.
I want to constrain the height of a flex component to the height of the browser viewport.
The component's children are populated from a database table using a repeater, and are basic checkboxes. There are enough of them that the flex app ends up being about twice the height of the screen, which means some of the rest of the layout goes crappy on me. How can I force the component that contains these to limit itself to the size of the viewport?
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?

import flash.display.StageAlign;
import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
import flash.events.Event;

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to set width/height of a FlexSprite object in ActionScript but it doesn't seem to work at all. I'm still a rookie when it comes to ActionScript and I don't understand why I can't set the dimensions of that object. I know I could use a UIComponent but I need something more lightweight since I'm going to add hundreds of them.
public class MyComp extends UIComponent
{
public function MyComp()

I plan to add other objects inside the FlexSprite and I need to set their dimensions explicitly as well so I really need to figure out how to do that.
