Flash :: Fill Browser Window

Fill To Browser Window...
Hi all, I was just wondering how I'd go about creating a flash movie that has a background pattern that stretches to fill the brower's window size? Meaning, let's say I have a vertical line running along my flash movie, how do I keep it so that if the browser window is increased, that line still stretches to the edge of the window without resizing the actual movie? Hope this makes sense! thanks!

Fill Whole Browser Window? How Is This Done?
So I have seen this a lot recently... a flash site that has a background element that fills the WHOLE browser window and if you resize the window, it gets cropped... but does NOT get scaled.

Here's a site with that going on: http://archive.hi-res.net/DIESEL_AW06/

How is this done? I assume there's a SWF that serves as the background and then the rest of the site is loaded into that parent SWF but I don't understand how to do it.

Can anyone help?

Site Does Not Fill Browser Window
Well my site is up and working (finally and thanks to a lot of help from flash kit members+++) but my question is: When I open it on my browser it does not expand to fill the whole page. Why? Is there some setting I am not applying in Flash or is it a Dreamweaver function?

Resize Movie To Fill Browser Window
hi

I'd like to dynamic resize my flash movie so it continuously fills the browser window - without scrollbars - regardless the size of the broswer window (as: http://amana.jp/company/tsutawaru/content.html)

I've been playing around with measuring the stage actionscript (see below) - and setting publish settings - HTML - to percent and scale to default - but so far without success.

Grateful for help in getting this right

Thanx

Dirk

The code:

function stageResize(){
scalable_mc._width=Stage.width+50;
scalable_mc._height=Stage.height+50;
}
Stage.scaleMode="noScale";
myListener= new Object();
myListener.onResize=function(){
stageResize();
};
Stage.addListener(myListener);

Stretch The Stage To Fill The Browser Window?
Could someone let me know how this is done.....

http://www.chevaldetroie.net/

How do you make the stage fill the entire window and scale? Also, How do you position the objects in on the sides, such as the menu bar which rolls in and out of the side of the screen. It seems like there are MOST of the top designers are doing this now.

I would appreciate your help.

Thanks

Making Flash Movie Fill Entire Browser Window
This has probably been asked dozens of times, but I was wondering how to make an flash movie fill the entire browser window. I tried using height=100% and width=100%, but that didn't work. Any advice? Thanks in advance.

Flash Sites That Fill Whole Browser Window. Hows Is This Achieved?
A lot of flash websites that I see nowadays seem to fill the complete browser window without any stretching of content.

Does anyone know how this is achieved? Panasonics new site is a good example http://www.panasonic-europe.com/raci...g.aspx?lang=en

Funny thing 2advanced's site doesnt do this. If you click on the edges of the site you get the properties menu for HTML and not for flash.

Not Fill Browser, But Almost? :00,
Alright, I've seen what seems like every post and tut on full browser flash. Lee Brimelow's is good (www.gotoandlearn.com) THANKS LEE. BUT, There are more elements that I can't find the answer to:
I'd like to have a header_mc, footer_mc, and main_mc, and background_mc fill the browser.
header_mc stays in top left corner or top center,
footer_mc stays in bottom center of browser window,
main_mc is centered,
and background_mc scales or centers with resize.

Here are some examples of what I've found:
www.triworks.net/triworks2007_eng/default.htm
www.artfuldodgerny.com/

Any thoughts, ideas, help is greatly appreciated.

THANKS!!!

Need Swf To Fill Browser
So I'm new to hosting flash and I have done some research on how to have my swf file fill the browser it is being viewed in.
Just using the publish setting inside of flash is not doing the trick and after resizing my swf numerous times in html I am convinced that this is obviously not the way to achieve what I am trying to do. I have read and seen tutorials on different ways to do this but am looking for someone to help explain it to me.

I have this css code

<style type="text/css">
html {
height:100%;
}
body {
height:100%;
}

</style>

and I've also seen the swfobject used with javascript. I am not familar with java at all so this is foreign to me. The site I am using as a model actually uses both the techniques mentioned above. My ? is, " does the html or javascript or both get the job done and or is their actionscript used in conjuction with these techniques. I've heard that actionscript overides any html used so this is confusing me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Getting My Movie To Fill The Browser
As you may have guessed from the topic, I am having probs getting movies the right size. Even when my movie size is 800x600 and my resolution is 800x600 it won't fit. I guess even if I toy with it to get it to fit properly it would look bad for someone on 1024x768. Is there a way I can get my movie to size correctly whatever resolution my viewer is using? I'm sure there is something I'm not doing as other peoples sites seem to fit ok all the time...

Thanks for your time

How To Fill The Whole Area Of The Browser
Hi I have the homepage of my website set in 800x600 pxls app. in Flash MX. I am also working in 800x600 windows resolution in 32-bit mode. Although both are set in the same resolution when viewed in IE the homepage still does not occupy the whole area of the browser. Instead a sort of white space can be seen on the top of the title bar and on the left of the menu. I want the homepage to appear like the top part of flashkit.com.

Any idea of how can I solve this?

I have attached my main.fla file.

Thanks

Fill Full Browser
Hello, I must be getting the HTML wrong here... I'm trying to get my flash to fill the browser (regardless of user's screen rez etc). http://ghanatoronto.com/ is what I have so far. Notice how it gets smaller and bigger when you resize the browser? That's sort of what I want, except I want it to also extend horizontally so that the browser view completely filled.

Any help with this Flash/HTML problem?

I've found a site that actually accomplishes this exactly the way I imagined. Check it to see what I mean. http://84.ufc.com/

IMO, this is the way media sites should be. Its coming in as a cross between TV because of the fidelity (plus everything you need is in your face, no need to scroll or click many links), except you have the interactivity of online. Makes me think when they partition off the internet into the megasites, people will still be able to do some pretty cool stuff with Blogger (which will definately be part of the standard package). Except Blogger might decide to charge a little something when people have no other alternatives at getting their own website up. I think Flash may have a good future in that world.

Possible To Make Embedded Swf (in Another Swf) Fill Browser?
I have an .swf which is set at 100x100 percent and fills the browser window. I have an embedded .swf within this .swf, and I would like to be able to have the embedded .swf fill the browser window and remain fluid (for different screen resolutions). This has to be done from the embedded .swf.

I thought if I could retrieve the stage details of the parent .swf from within the embedded .swf, then I could use these to resize the embedded .swf - but I haven't been able to do this.

I'm plum out of ideas. Can anybody give me any pointers?

Many thanks.

Another Flash Fill Browser Question... Sorry.
Right, I'm trying to do the usual, filling the entire browser space with flash blackpulp stylee. I think I'm practically there, Ive got Stage.scaleMode = "noScale" in my swf and everything i think i need in my html.

Code:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>MIJJIT</title>

<style type="text/css">

</style>

</head>

<body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0">

<param name="movie" value="frame.swf">
<param name="menu" value="false">

</object>

</body>
</html>
It does fill it full screen, but my original fla is set up for a 1024 resolution. When I view it in 800x600 it still filss the browser, but it doesnt fit. In the same way on higher resolutions, there is lots of white space. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

Fill Window
Is there a way to make a flash movie fill the window? I don't want full screen, I just want the window to be full no matter what size the browser window is. Is this possible?

[F8]How Do I Get My .swf To Fill Its Window?
Hey:

My .swf file ("star4.swf") looks fine when testing in Flash (i.e. the content fits the window perfectly); however, when viewing the file on my website, it appears in its window with a gap around the top and left sides, as if its x and y coordinates were each set at 20.

I tried setting the main movieClip's _x and _y values, making them negative to compensate, but the clip always plays with that gap around the top and left. I didn't have any luck with document.width or .height either.

I'm using Javascript in my HTML file (star4.html) to size the window to 1024 by 768. The .swf's content is the same width and twice the height (this is because it scrolls along from bottom to top). Is the script what's causing the problem? Is there a routine in Flash that'll replace the script? Or are the dimensions of my .swf's content the problem (seems like that wouldn't be it, but I'm not sure)?

Here's that Javascript, by the by:
code: <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
window.resizeTo(1024,768);
</script>
And here's a link to the file in question - click on Chief Wiggum to launch the .swf.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

Help With Making Site Fill 100% Height Of Browser
Hello, I was wondering if someone could share how to make a site say 700 or 750 x 100%. Meaning filling the browser window from top to bottom but only 700 or 750 wide. I would like to make a site fill the height without having to have it scroll....does this make sense?

Fill Browser With Flash - No Scale/scrollbars
Hey everybody,

i havent posted to ultrashock in years, but im developing a massive online architecture/interactive portfolio and need some help

i need to know how i can embed a large swf (dimension wise), that will probably overflow on most resolutions on the top left of a page, without having ANY scrollbars show up on any browser or having it scale at all. I just cant seem to get rid of the scrollbars so far

do i do this in flash or html?

Resizing An External Image To Fill Browser Screen
Hi there,

I am trying to build a portfolio photo gallery viewer, in the fullbrowser mode seen in many photography sites today:

http://www.brook-pifer.com/

Just to state one example, where a high res image is loaded and scaled to the browser. I managed to find out that using _quality=BEST for the place holder of the image helps retain the quality resizing which was my main concern.

Now I need to know how to resize to fit the stage. I have the following script:

MovieClip.prototype.fitArea = function(w, h) {
if (w/this._width<=h/this._height) {
var fit = '_width';
var resize = '_height';
var f = w;
} else {
var fit = '_height';
var resize = '_width';
var f = h;
}
var ratio = f/this[fit];
this[fit] = f;
this[resize] = this[resize]*ratio;
};

Which appeared to work great locally in the flash player, but as soon as you booted it out to a browser and called external files, it would only randomly work say 1 every 15 times which was wierd, so Im guessing its not reading something in right. I was calling the resize script on every browser resize or new image load.

Using:

function loadImage(pic) {
pic_mc.loadMovie(pic);
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
l = pic_mc.getBytesLoaded();
t = pic_mc.getBytesTotal();
_root.loadtext = Math.round((l/t)*100);
trace(_root.loadtext);
if (l == t && pic_mc._width>1) {
_root.loadtext = "";
produceStage();
trace("loaded");
_root.play();
delete this.onEnterFrame;

}
};
}

Any one have any ideas on how to sort this out?

Thanks in advance!

Dimensions For .swf File When It Needs To Fill Whole Html Window?
Hello!

Im working on a web site now...in flash. Soon its ready to be published..and I´ll use Dreamweaver to create the html "frame"..This is usually no problem..however..this time I want the .swf file to fill the whole html window.

The swf Im working on now consist of a background and then a swf file (web site) in the middle of the background. Does any of you have any clue on how to fill the whole html with the swf without the size of the web site (in the middle) size going bananas in various browsers?

What dimensions should the backgound in flash be set to?

Not to mention..in Dreamweaver...

Have no idea if this makes any sense to anyone but me..but its worth a try...

Any suggestions will be much appreciated

Bitmap Smoothing - Scaling - Fill Window
Hi there,

I'm trying to find a way to do this:
http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=274060

but instead of it being a slideshow on a timer, I would like to have buttons for navigation. The aim of the site I'm currently developing is to have it's portfolio (large images) displaying full window with bitmap smoothing. So, they (the images) would be the background.

If possible, I might want to try to not have xml. I would not mind having all the images in the main movie. I appreciate the loading time quality that this feature adds, but I also like having my images all loaded so there is no delay at all while navigating the gallery.

If there are source files, tutorials or anything that looks only at the fitting to window, smoothing and scaling .. I would really appreciate being pointed in that direction. I'm not advanced enough to know how to modify what I have.. I have much to learn and the deadline does not allow me time.
