Hi guys,

Is It Possible For Flash To Check Size Of Window And Move Menu Accordinly?
Made a Flash site that was too big for 1024 X 768 resolution. I need atleast 900 height otherwise bottom menu will not be seen.

Is it possible for Flash to check what resolution the user's monitor is or what size the browser window is open to and move the menu from the bottom position and somewhere else only if the menu can not be seen but I dont want it moving all over the place for design reasons and will only want it moved to another places where the menu would still look good if the resolution is not high enough or if the browser window is opened too small.

Flash Website - 100% Of Browser Size - How Is This Done (link)
http://outlawcoffee.com/

Check out the above link, notice that it's all flash, yet has the semi-cleaness of a strong html feel and somewhat cool for a retail site. ..

Anyway, I'm curios as to how they created the page to go 100% of the browser size no matter what the window size or resolution is. Can someone point this out to me?

Thanks

Published Flash Page Stretches With Explorer Window
When I test my movies in Flash, everything looks fine, but after publishing, uploading, and viewing the page in explorer, the page is inside the explorer interface, and it stretches out to whatever size the explorer window is. How do I keep it as its' own, small window with no explorer menu bar, etc.? I suspect it's an .html thing?

Thanks

How Do I Open A New Browser Window From A Link In Flash?
Seemed to me this would be easily accomplished...perhaps it is. But I'm having trouble with it.

The link (button) has the following code attached to it:

on (release) {
getURL("http://www.faithbaptistwaterford.org/youth/intro.htm", _blank);
}

Unfortunately, the page loads in the same browser as the flash movie....which has no toolbars and is a specific size...a 'window'.

Thoughts anyone??

Just want to open up a new regular browser window.

Fixed Size Browser Window Pop-up From Flash?
Hi there... I'm finishing off a flash website for a band and I've created a little music player that's 380 x 250 pixels... There's a "launch music player" button in my site and when pple click on it, I'd like the music player (which is a flash file embedded in an html file) to pop up in it's own little browser window. I know how to make normal full size windows pop up (by using the: getURL("location", "_blank").... function) but I need a browser window that doesn't scroll and isn't resizeable, with a fixed size of 380 x 250 to pop up. I know how to do this in HTML (dreamweaver), but not in flash - can anyone help?

Center Flash In Any Size Window Browser
I would like to produce flash so that regardless the viewers browser size (ie the total pixel area they are using), ALWAYS places the flash content in the center.

As there are more variables to change this answer, this is assumes for eg. that the swf file is fixed eg. 400x400. The main purpose is to have it show in the center of the browser window regardless the size of browser, whether it's not max'ed on what ever size monitor resolution.

Is this a simple solution??

Flash Re-sizing To Browser Window Size
Hey,

Below is the code i am using to resize an object on my flash stage to be the same size as the users browser window. It rezises in Proportion the the browser window - so an image will never look skewed. It works really well, but the object only resizes to the size of the browser window when it is changed i.e it looks out of place until you resize the window. Any thought on how i can get the object to resize without the user having to adjust the screen. can i set stageListener.onResize = function() { to start the function "onLoad" or something like that?

i hope this makes sense
code attached
Thanks

Nick

Attach Code

Stage.align = "TL";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";

stageListener = new Object();
stageListener.onResize = function() {

var imageAspectRatio = myClip._width/myClip._height;
var stageAspectRatio = Stage.width/Stage.height;
var stageXCenter = Stage.width * .5;
var stageYCenter = Stage.height * .5;
// place the clip
myClip._x = stageXCenter;
myClip._y = stageYCenter;
if (stageAspectRatio>=imageAspectRatio) {
// long skinny stage - match image width and adjust height to fit
myClip._width = Stage.width;
myClip._height = Stage.width/imageAspectRatio;
} else {
// tall narrow stage - match image height and adjust width to fit
myClip._height = Stage.height;
myClip._width = Stage.height*imageAspectRatio;
}

};
// Assign a listener for the Stage object
Stage.addListener(stageListener);

A Way Of Flash Finding Out What Size The Browser Window Is?
I want to do this.

I have a full screen flash site (with browser window still but no toolbars) that changes size depending on the browser window but the image I use to cover the whole browser window becomes pixelated unless it is a 1:1 of the original image size.

eg. image = 1200 X 1024

Sometimes the user expands the browser window to 800 X 600

When this happens my image looks pixelated as it scales to match 800 X 600.

What I plan to do is for flash to continually check what the browser window has been stretched to and let flash load the same image but this time one that is the right dimension of 800 X 600 of the browser window. So if teh browser window was stretched to 1600 X 1400, then Flash will load an image thats 1600 X 1400.

Opening A New Browser Window - Exact Size Of A Flash Swf?
Hi,

In Dreamweaver, I've previously used the 'open new browser window' behaviour from a link to display my Flash movies, and entered the .SWF filename as the URL to launch (this launches a browser window thatls exactly the size of the movie, no scrollbars, buttons etc). Can I do a similar thing with Flash's 'get URL' command, or does that only go to HTML/HTM files?

Cheers, Skratch

Need Flash Site To Size To User's Browser Window
I thought that when you go to Publish Settings in your Flash file and choose "Percent" for Dimensions and make the percent dimensions equal 100 x 100, that would cause your Flash file to size to the user's browser. But, my file doesn't always fit the user's browser. Sometimes it is tiny with lots of blank space all around, and sometimes it is huge, where you have to scroll around to see everything. How do I fix this?

Fit Flash Movie Into Any Size Browser Window, Without Scaling?
Hey everyone.

Just wanted to know how to code a flash/ or HTML document so that the flash movies fits the entire browser space on any size monitor, but doesn't scale the flash movie up or down?

Just to give you an idea. YOu know when you place stuff outside of the flash stage, and when you publish the movie you can stretch the window and see the stuff you left on the stage? Basically I want the flash stage to fit the entire browser window and not have horizontal or vertical scrolling.

Sorry if this is hard to visualize, but I would greatly appricate anyones help.

Thanks!

Movie Position Related With Size Of Browser Window - Flash Interaction 02
ok,
there are a couple of things of flash, that i was unnable to solve from a long time up to now.
and everitime i look on related post of these topics, there are always with 0 answers.

so, i will place here a couple of posts, one with each problem i want to resolve,
i really prefer to use as much flash as i can before i like it much more than any other software, but i believe we will all agreed that it has some weak points.

so basically this post is related on how we can interact flash to other web design software

Here is problem 2:

our flash movies, at least mines,
that i design everithing in flash,
ther are located in a special place of the browser window

here, the flash movie its centered in the browser window,
and when i resize the BW,
it stays centered unless the BW its smaller than the movie

i will like to know how is this done,
i mean,
its flash with another software working together ?
its everithig designed with something else and the flash movies are just accesories ??
or is full designed in flash in a way i still dont get it ???

becouse i've alrready tried a lot of things without any luck

could any of you give me a hand with this ??

pd: i will also post another topic related to this, and this example but, not about the BW it will be about the text and the search engines. so we can discuss these topics separately

thanks in advance

Using Flash To Open A New Browser Window - Exact Size Of Flash Movie?

[HTML] Embedding SWF So It Stretches To Screen Size, But To A Limit
I have wanted to do this for a long time, but never found a solution, so now I'm breaking down and asking.

Sometimes I create a Flash document which is set up so the document can stretch(noScale, align, onResize to size/position elements of the site, ect.), then in the HTML I set the width/height to 100%, so the Flash doc stretches to match screen size(for the sake of stretching a background, usually, or placing an object always near an edge of the screen). This all works very good, but there is one thing I'd like to adjust. Here's why:
Sometimes the Flash movie is designed so that it really shouldn't be smaller than a certain size(let's say 900x800). If it's smaller than this size, things overlap, and areas which don't fit onscreen become unreachable, crippling usability. The normal solution is to explicitly set the embed size to 900x800, which will put scrollbars(annoying as they may be, they maintain usability) on the user's browser if it is too small, say 800x600. But the problem is, then it will never be bigger than the explicitly set size either, so if the users screen is actually bigger, the document won't fill the screen size.

So, what I would like to do is be able to somehow set the width/height of the Flash movie to stretch to screen size, but never go below a certain screen size either. This way if the screen is too small it will enforce scrollbars and not make portions of the movie unviewable, but also if the user's screen is big enough it will stretch to match the screen, thus filling background, ect. Make sense?

I'm thinking the HTML embed tags have to somehow be set to be explicit widht/height(900px - 800px) if the user's screen is too small(thus enforcing scrollbars), or 100% if the users screen is big enough. JavaScript?

Thanks for reading, I know it's a long and somewhat tricky to explain problem, but I would *really* like to be able to do this. Thanks.

Link To QT & QT Window Size...
I can link to a Quicktime movie, no problem... I have it come up in a _blank window.

My question is: How do I define the size of the _blank window from within the actionscript, since my QT.mov isn't in an HTML page that I've made?

Here's the code I'm using right now, on the button to get to the QT...

on (release) {
getURL("http://www.mysite.com/portfolio/QT.mov", "_blank");
}

Do I just add some "height=/width=" stuff in there, somewhere?

Thanks,

New Browser Window Size
Hello,

I'm rather new to flash and am trying to do something probably
very simple so I apologise in advance!

I want to be able to open a new browser window from within flash (after clicking on a button) which is a specific size. The HTML document that opens is basically just a quicktime movie clip.

Currently, when using GetURL, the resulting browser window is much bigger than the quicktime file. Is there any way to specify specific dimensions and whether the address bar, scroll bar etc appears?

Any suggestions welcome!

thanks

Hi

really simple question..
When I publish my website, how do I set the browser so that by default it opens up at full screen size without scaling the project?

I have tweaked the publish settings so that I can drag the browser window as big or small as I want it manually, but I'd like it to be part of the flash publish process, so that it just does it itself.

cheers!!

Browser Window Size
I'm trying to get my website to FIT in my browser. (As suggested by other users (thanx by the way)) i've tried scripting "no border" on the stagemode . I've tried to publish it 100x100 and click exact fit. but the thing opens up in my browser window too small.

I want to get it so that if the user tries to to drag the browser window open the website drags proportionally with it.

Also, i have another question. Because i uploaded the hell out of the thing for six hours yesterday and this morning. is there any reason that someone can think of why i cant see my flash website except for the background color on my own computer but there it is plain as day when i checked it out at school on a dsl?

www.blindspotdesign.org <<<my very first website ever flash or otherwise!!>>
It still has one or two bugs of course, any input would be appreciated. At least tell me if YOU can see the thing.

Specify Size Of Browser Window
When a user clicks on my flash demo link, I want the size of the browser window which it loads to be exactly the size as my flash demo (800 x 600). How can I do this??

note: the link on which the user clicks on to load my flash file is a simply HTML <a href> link.

I know it has something to do with the publish settings and javascript (window.open). I tried a couple of different things and nothing has worked so far. Currently, my demo loads but only b/c I set the dimensions to be 825 x 625 on the page in which the links for it exists. There is a white frame around my flash demo.

Thanks a lot.
