800x600 Viewing Problem



My flash movie is not or will not show up on you screen if your monitor settings are 800x600. It does show up above that. Most people like it at 1024x768 which is the next setting up. How do make it where my flash site can be viewed even if a setting is 800x600

800x600 Vs 1024x786
Hi,

I have created a site that is 1024x786, but have some clients that have there res at 800, and the type is coming out fuzzy. Is there anyway that i could have it set up so on both setting its appears ok, or some clever code that decides what the view is using and changes the file????

thanks.....

800x600 AND 1024x768 ?
Hi,

Everytime I create a Flash site, I have the concerning to make it to fit in 800x600 with no scrollbars. Recently, though, I stayed on a website that does something amazing: it works either on 800x600 as well 1024x768, with the difference that when in 800x600 it simply "crops" (at right and at bottom) what doesnt fits in the browser, but when in 1024x768 it shows the whole thing.

I stayed looking around and couldnt get the trick that the webdesigner used to do that. Anyone there know how to do that?

I mean, seems that the site is made for 1024x768, but when showed in 800x600 it is just cropped and NO SCROLLBARS !!!

The site I am referring is in http://www.cantao.com.br

Thanks!

Scaling Down For 800x600
Hello All,

I posed this question the other day, but stupidly stuck right in the middle of a critique thread so it didn't get answered.

It kind of relates to the brilliant thread on Full Screen Centred Flash which is going on at the moment.

I have done a site in which the main content MC is centred and repositions using a listener. I have sized it for a 1024x768 screen, but I've used screenResolutionX to detect and scale it down when the user is viewing at 800x600.

The trouble is, when scaled down it is all pixelated and nasty, as I would expect. HOWEVER! The other day I saw a thread on http://www.rembo.be/

This site scales up to fit full screen on any resolution, yet the images are still crisp and clear at all resolutions.

How the heck have they managed this? Surely if these images were traced the swf would be gigantic?

Any advice much appreciated.

Cheers,

Robbie.

Is This Too Deep For 800x600?
Do ya think?.....users are gonna have to scroll anyway because there's gonna be products listed below, so Im not aiming to fit the whole site within 740x520. If I squash this any more the Junkie Dolls are just gonna be a head or really small!....which I dont want....nor the client.

800x600 Vs 1024x768
Yeah, that's the question. My current site is at 800x600 but it's rather small when viewed from my desktops 1280x1024. Of course, I know it will look small that way but what is the standard? If my site is flash in 1024x768, and someone views it at a lower res, will all of it be visible or will the page be cut off?

#p & #b Of Printing A 800x600 In 8.5x11
I have a complicated single frame movie (all motion actionscripted) that I need to print from a web page. The movie has nothing outside the stage and is 800 x 600. I have tried all the tutorials and #p printable frames and #b for the bounding boxes as well as the online help in FLASH. It still crops my image on the left side when printed from my print button (printasbitmap) that is in the .swf. HELP i have been sitting infront of this problem now for about 7 hours and no luck. How do you guys print movies with bitmaps in them and get them to size right on a 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper and not print it in landscape mode.

Thanks

480x600, 800x600, ...how Do I Configure...?
how can i make my movie (an interface) just like what is on this website? i.e. if i want to watch a movie in 800x600, i just click the button a there it is, and if i want to watch the same movie in 1024x768, all i do is click and there it is in that format.

i'm trying to make an interface that will display to the setting that the browser is in. Any help would be greatly appreciated. my current settings for the movie are 650x400 for 800x600 users, but if the browser is in 1024x720, i want the user to get a bigger version. Please help.

800x600 ... A Style Question?
Hi... I was wondering if most of you tailor your sites to fit neatly (no scrolls) into an 800x600 res screen or if you just try to fit for a 1024x768res or other? im making my site and I want it to look good on all browsers but really dont like the way it looks on a 800x600 screen.

Is there anyway for html/javascript/flash to detect the resolution of the user's screen and then size the movie as a percentage of the screen? this would solve my problem as I could make it fit nice (no scrolling)on a screen with any res. is there anything else that accomplishes the same/similar goal? thanks.

Resolution 800x600 Or 1024x768
I am wondering how most people handle the problem of different people having their compputer resolution at different levels. SOme have it set to 800x600 and some to 1024x768. Usually i try and keep my flash sites within the 800x600 frame and still try to accomodate the larger resolutions as well. However, I am wondering if their is somehting better I can do. I have seen some sites that have an opening page that gives you a choice of size for the flash site, but I was wondering If their is a way to detect what th eresolution is set at with the flash site and adjust accordingly?

Is Flash Optimized For 800x600?
I had problems with 1024x768 flash applications. When I run tests I found that fps drops when MC crosses 800x600 resolutions.
Specifics:
I made flash file with resolution 1024x768 and made an MC(movieclip) that increased it height and width and changed alpha. It hasn’t had any problems until the rectangle extended 800x600+.
SWF is made for 30 fps. With one movieclip it was 29-30 before 800x600 and 21 after. With 10 movieclips it was 28-30 before and 9-10 after.
I checked fps with the code:








Attach Code

Current = getTimer();
trace(1000/(Current-Last));
Last=Current;

800x600 Users Problem
Hi,

This is my problem. I just finished a site for a client made with 1024x768 users in mind. But now they want to make it smaller for 800x600 users. I don´t want to add the option at the beginning to choose your resolution. Instead I want to see if it is possible to add some code to the HTML, to detect the user resolution and based on that load the specific SWF for that resolution. I`m going to create 2 different main SWF´s, one for 800x600 users and other for 1024 or more...

How can I do it? Any idea? Thanks a lot.

Height Of Flash For 800x600
Hey guys,

I was wondering what height you guys usually use for an online flash site if you don't want people to scroll. On an 800x600 resolution of course, but also what are your thoughts on designing for 1024x768 displays? Is this allready a viable option or should we stick to webstandards and design for 800x600?

Links Trouble In 800x600
Sometimes, maybe 3 out of 10 people with a 800x600 resolution, have problems to activate the links at
http://www.solosub.org - as my client finally was able to prove to me. On mouseover, the "over state" is only partial visible or doesn't show at all and the link stays dead. This is quite puzzling, because on both my systems (800x600 & 1028x768) the links work fine. Also, no one seems to have a problem at 1028x768.

thank you

640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x960?
You might be able to help me. Before you view a site in Flash Kit you get a choice of which size you'd like to view it at (640x480, 800x600...)

I am trying to find out how to change the size of a whole flash movie so that I can give my user controll of which size they want to see.

Is there some script which allows you to do this?

I'm not sure what words to search for to find out.

Thanks

Movie Size : 800x600, 1024x768 Or Is It?
Hello,

I was wondering if I have to consider the scroll bars when setting up the size of my movie.

Do I have to reduce it? Considering that there is maybe a 20 pixels or so that is used for scroll bars. So when creating my movie, I'd make it 780x580 or something...

If yes, do any of you know the exact dimensions (if there is a standard...)

Thanks a bunch

Auto Resize 1024x768 And 800x600
i have made a website in flash and has sized everything to fit 800 x 600.

is there a code that detects the user's resolution and automatically resizes the scale of the flash file to fill the screen?

and also, if i want to make another version for 1024x768
how do i scale everything up?
i can't just drag it cause the resolution of the photos will go down, right?

thanks in advance

Anyone Viewing This Swf Can Change It For Everyone Viewing
Greetings,

I dont post much because usually I can just search for my question and I'll get an answer within minutes. However I was not even real sure how to ask this question in the form of a search so I guess it would be best to describe how it would work.

Is the following possible with flash?

4 people are viewing the same web page with the same swf file. The movie contains 4 blocks that each time you click on it, it changes to a different color.

One person clicks on one block and it turns blue, then immediately the other three people viewing the same web page see one block turn blue because of an action someone else across the world did.

Is this possible?

I have a proficiency level with sharedObjects but I think thats strictly a local technology that works sort of like registry keys. I suppose what I'm looking for is a way for every user in the world who sees this web page to share a variable list. How do I do that?

thanks.

Size Of Swf Movie In HTML Page For 800x600
Hi there
what is the size resolution playing it safe for a swf movie within a HTML page, so that the viewer can see all of it without scrolling up and down.
I know its dependent on the users preference with
their toolbar
+ address bar + links + status

Does anyone know of a page that gives u all the variables dealing with web broswers and sizes..
anyone's preference.

Im pretty sure were building for a 800 x 600 broswer.

and just dont want the user to scroll down and up the page to get to their information. I wont be wasting any space at the top of the page either with needless branding etc etc. so from the top of the page to the bottom..all should be seen.

Thanks for your time and mental energy

Pop Up True Window Size ? 800x600 + 1024x768
Hi I have a flash app
that i want to open up for a
800 x 600 screen.
I've been told to make the flash .swf 788 x 570
to allow for the browser pop up graphics in the web browser UI.

Is this correct.

I'm creating another one which needs more screen real estate, so I want it to populate the next step up 1024 x 768, what am I facing with this one.

This page
http://www.anybrowser.com/ScreenSizeTest.html

1007 x 566 to 1019 x 668
and yet they say if used on a mac (which the flash app will)
it will need to fit 996 x 603

I do know that you can have the .swf scale up, but for the larger app I will need that real estate to show alot of info.

Much thanks.
If anyone knows of any web pages that help deal with these issues..I'd appreciate them.

Can My 1024x768 Designed Site Still Be Viewable For 800x600 Screens?
Hi,

I've just spent the last 3 weeks designing my site in Flash (the swf is 955x600 which is best for 1024x768 screen resolution). Now, I have placed those swf files at the top and centre of the html pages in Dreamweaver (so when it's opened in Internet Explorer, it fits just nicely on a 17" 1024x768 monitor). I've just realised after using other peoples computers with 800x600 screen resolutions, that the swf file is way big out of proportion. Now what I would like to know is, is it possible in Flash that there is some way that the swf file can shrink to fit 800x600 screens? I just don't want to have to worry about my website overlapping on all the people who check out my site with 800x600 screens.

I'm thinking of just redesigning the whole website so it is 800x600 compatible. But that's gonna take ages.

Check out www.ds-d.com to see what I mean.

Thanks for listening.

Enabling Scrolling In Flash Movie When Resolution Is 800x600
I am using fullscreen flash, and it works great at all resolutions, but when using 800x600, the swf gets cut up and makes it unusable.

A simple solution would be to re-direct people using 800x600 to a seperate page, but it's far from perfect as it would require more work.

Right now I am using Stage.scalemode ="noscale"; on the movie. How would I go about either enabling scrollbars on 800x600 or when someone's mouse goes to the bottom of the flash movie, it scrolls down by itself?

I assume it would be done using stageListener.onResize, but i do not know how to implement it.

any help would be very appreciated

Thanks

Dynamic Background (Center On 800x600 Or Strech If Bigger)
Greetings,

I´m trying to create a Dynamic Background that "Fit" on the screen resolution doing the follow.:

If the resolution is smaller than 800x600, the background image will be centered on the screen, and if the resolution is bigger than 800x600 the background image will "strech" to fit the resolution (without deform the background image).

The Script Works Ok but sometimes a White (Background FLA color) Area appears, this means that the Script have some error or are not well finished...

Can anyone give me a hand to fix this ? and make the background always fit on the screen, without that little bug. ?



Code:
Stage.showMenu = false;
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "LT";

background.onResize = function() {

if (Stage.width > 800 || Stage.height > 600){

var _l2 = this._width/this._height;
var _l3 = Stage.width/Stage.height;

if (_l3>=_l2) {
this._width = Stage.width;
this._height = Stage.width/_l2;
background._x = Stage.width / 2;
background._y = Stage.height / 2;

}else{

if (_13<_12){
this._height = Stage.height;
this._width = Stage.height*_l2;
background._x = Stage.width / 2;
background._y = Stage.height / 2;

}};

}else{

background._x = Stage.width / 2;
background._y = Stage.height / 2;

}};



Stage.addListener(background);
Ps.: To test the code just paste the Action on the first frame and then create a movie clip with a 800x600 image and name the instance as "background".

Need To Make 1060x810 Into 800x600 With Out Simply Changing The Document Size.
Most of the code and imagines are set up on the 1060px X 810px formate so I can't just change the document to 800px X 600px without more or less remaking half the game.

Is there a way to resize the swf down to 800X600? Thanks

Viewing
Okay, I can't get the right anwser on this one, please help! All I have is one movie loading into another movie. The position and size are fine on the new movie that is loaded in but when it is loaded you have to scroll up to get to the top of the movie. Both movies are forms that need to be filled out. When you are done with the 1st form you hit the next button which opens up the 2nd form to be filled out. But since you were at the bottom of the 1st movie(form) when you loaded the 2nd movie(form), the 2nd movie opens at the bottom instead of the top so you have to scroll up. Anyway to avoid this from happening.

Thanks

Viewing All Layers At Once
The movie is made of a couple of layers with text, plus several layers with pictures – 14 layers in total. As one layer is becoming fully visible, a couple of others are at different stages of fade in or fade out and all other layers are invisible, becoming “live” later along the time line.

As I needed to add more pictures, it was necessary to have an idea where the previous pictures were located but I found no way to see all the pictures at once.

The square “show all layers as outlines” symbol does not help, because it only shows the pictures as outlines if the play head is at the correct position for that particular layer.

Is there any way to see the position of all pictures on all layers at once, independently of the position of the play head? Thank you

Pic Viewing Suggestions...
Hi there all

I have a website with a bunch of thumbnails on it. I would like to open them up in a new browser window, but can I do it so that the browser automatically resizes with each pic (as they're aren't all the same size)?

Alternatively, any other way to do it, pulling the Jpgs into Flash (instead of having 'em sat in the library)?

Thanks in advance,

Mac Viewing Problems
morning all

some of our mac users are having trouble viewing some flash movies:

http://www.multimediamarketing.com/B.../demo/menu.htm

they say can see the menu movie okay, but when they click on item 2 (twenty four tweens) the screen goes blank and nothing loads.

they assure me that they have the latest Flash and IE downloads...

i have used relative urls and loadVariables() which i've heard may be a problem with macs.

any help from the mac users out there would be a bonus!
