Problem With Screen Resolution + Problem With Pause


Hello, Hello,

I've got a full Flash site (http://www.laplumeetlasouris.com) optimized for a 1024x768 screen resolution. I would like to make it available to people having a 800x600 screen resolution. Is there any way to display a "reduced" (in size) version of my Flash files ?

Many thanks in advance,

François

+ my previous question still unsolved :

ActionScript Code:
function pause(){
     play();
     clearInterval(timer);
}
on the first frame of each swf file
and

ActionScript Code:
stop();
timer = setInterval(pause, X000);
on the frame where I want to pause. This way, I can control the pause duration for each screen.

The problem is that I also want the site to be accessible with buttons so that, if someone does not want to see a screen, he can go to another. But as soon as I press a button, the duration of the following pauses is not the one I wanted, as if my "clearInterval" actions were ignored.

What can I do ?

Many thanks in advance

François

I created an entire website using flash at 800 x 600. But when someone when a different monitor resolution goes to it..it doesn't fit. Without creating two sets of files, can I write in something that will make the swf files fill the screen appropriately, no matter what size screen they are using?

thanksfor you help!

Screen Resolution
Here is a question for general discussion and a question if anyone has a good solution.

When developing web sites what screen resolution do you all develope in. The reason I ask is cause while having a couple of friend do a quick site check for me, I got various replies some saying that it was way too big(the were using 800 x 600) and some thought it was a perfect size. How do you get your movies to appear "good" no matter what resolution they are viewing it with.

I hope I am making sense here. Thanks in advance for all the replies

This is an unrelated to flash question, but hopefully someone can help me... I was in the process of checking a web site I am creating in different screen resolutions to to make sure everything was cool with it, and brought it up to 1280 res, and when I brought it back down, I now have this "flickering" on my screen,.... and if you look at it long enough, it could prob cause a seizure,... anyway, I tried re-starting my computer, and that did not work.. any suggestions? Hopefully I didn't toast the video card.

Screen Resolution
Hey everyone. Im pretty new with Flash MX, and I was curious with actionscript. Are you capable of changing the screen resolution of the user? What all are you capable of doing with Flash MX regarding messing with the user's preferences, or can you at all? Im NOT going to use this to mess with anyone innocent, nor anyone guilty. I am just curious to see how good and powerful Actionscript is. If there is a way and you dont feel like you should post it up on these forums, then Email me @ NeeBeR_FeeVeR@yahoo.com or AIM IM me at eenomojjahshik.

Also, i would like to talk to programmers on advice and tips. I am somewhat new to XP...well Windows for that matter. I quit for about 3 years and came back. I have been a Linux user for a while, and I have lost some skill with Windows.

Thanks to ALL!

Screen Resolution Help
I have my screen width set to 1024*768...

The page I've just finished looks great at that resolution, but at 800*600 it looks a bit distorted, rather terrible actually.

All I'm using is text basically, hardly any graphics. I exported it at 90 for quality. Any help as to why it doesn't look so clear at that resolution?

Thanks for any help

Screen Resolution MX
When i create sites in Flash, i put the swf in a cell in Dreamweaver MX. But as far as i can tell there is no way of making it resize to fit the screen when people use different screen resolutions, without using any Javascript or other code. When i try to put the swf as a page on it's own (so i can tell it to fit the screen 100x100 percent) the browser says 'downloading from site' before it loads up, which stops it being displayed until about 50% of the preloading is done.

Is there a way in Dreamweaver MX to make the layout cell containing the swf to resize to fit different screen sizes? Or is there another way?

What's the best way to have a swf on it's own as the main part of a website? (do you just point a link to the main swf?)

CSS And Screen Resolution
I did the mistake of designing a site in 1024x768. The flash movie is 650px bt 400px. Its centered in the HTML page. Now I've been reading a lot about CSS and Im not sure, but I do believe it can sort out my problem. I would like to resize it for 800x600 so it looks the same size. Im certainly not going to redesign the site cause its just a propsal at this point. Anyways, can anyone tell me or direct me to a tutorial on what I should do if I want to do this. Been a while since I've designed so im a wee bit behind on things!

Thanks a bunch!

[CS3] Screen Resolution
Step 1: In the first frame, flash checks for screen resolution. If it is not 1024x768, the flash will display a message saying "Please change your screen resolution to 1024x768 and then press OK".
I am using System.capabilities.screenResolutionX and System.capabilities.screenResolutionY to check for screen resolution.

Step 2: Now the user is supposed to change his screen resolution and then click on OK. Now it goes to next frame where again I use the same code to check for screen resolution.
The Problem is that: Even after the user has changed the screen resolution and pressed OK, flash again reads the same screen resolution that he had before. why does this happen????

Screen Resolution
Hi everyone,

I'm designing a website in Flash and i've encountered a problem with screen resolution that i know is familiar to people, but i can't seem to find a straight answer to.

I started designing the site with dimensions of 1024x768 (my screen resolution is 1152x864). all of the text (and graphics) are sized well and legible. Now when i change my screen res to 800x600 or 1024x768, the text becomes tiny and blurry! In the HTML script it have set to width and height at 100% so that the entire site will be visible regardless of screen size and res.

so what do i do to make the text readable regardless of screen res? i really would like to avoid creating two sites with different sizes and not using the 100% scaling option in the HTML.

any ideas or tips?

Thanks

What Is The BEST Screen Resolution?
IN FLASH MX, I set my screen resolution to 760px (width) x 560px (height). My monitor screen resolution is 1152x864. It looks fine at that monitor screen resolution. HOWEVER, the website looks h-u-g-e on monitor screen resolution 1024x768. It looks elongated on monitor screen resolution 1280x768.

So I am wondering what is the best screen resolution to set when in Flash? that will look good on all monitor screen resolutions?

About Screen Resolution
Hello there,

I would like to know the opinion of another flash designers about the next issue.

I work with a 800 x 600 resolution, so my flash work will on a size based on that. So, this means if someones uses 1024 x 768 or larger, they will have a lot of black screen on their browser!

How can you solve this? Does we make the SWF to open in his own size , besides the screen resolution of the user, or do you have to design based on
each screen resolution?

Any help about this issue, will be great.

thanks,

Hi
I've built a flash presentation at 1024x768. When i view it on my monitor at any other resolution than that, it pixelates :-( I thought vector graphics didn't do that?
Is there a command i can use to change the screen resolution automaticly when a user opens the presentation?
Otherwise, how do i stop it getting distorted
These are the commands i start the show with
fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
fscommand("allowscale", "true");
fscommand("showmenu", "false");

Hey guys,

I got a very basic question. I often see full screen flash websites covering whole screen. The script they use adjust acording to the client's screen. I tried same webpage on my widescreen 15" and normal 19" screen and they still covers full screen..

I am sure you know what i'm on about (Zzzzz)

How to do this? if you can pass me any tutorial link, it will be wikid.

Cheers pips.

Screen Resolution
Hi,
It is me again. I am currently developing a Flash software application. I have the size of the movie set at 1024 X 768. However, I would like the movie to determine the size of the users resolution and resize to fit the screen. Will Flash automatically do this for my projector file? Or do I need to script it in the .swf file? If so how would I go about this?

Thanks,
Sam

Hollar

So I am starting a new project and I have not decided what size I want to make it.
I know that a rule of thumb that a lot of people use is to make the project 640 by 480, however this can get boring.
What other sizes does everyone use... I would like to have a little fun, but keep functionality and view ability (for those with smaller screen resolutions/ older computers).

PS... This forum is the tits, everyone has been a big help.... cheers!!

Detecting Screen Resolution (Win 2K)
How do I detect the user's screen resolution (Win 2K)--I will be using a standalone player and want to make one version for 800x600 and another for 1024x768 (not everything to scale up).

Does anyone know how to detect screen size?

And I have to do it all from one .exe (can't load outside URLs, though I could write a file to disk then read it.)

Thanks!

I Created a projector file that I designed at 1024x768. I published it at percent (100%). However when I view it at a lower resolution (600x800 )it looks like crap. Any suggestions?

Is there a way that I can sniff out what resolution the user has set and instruct them to set their monitor to the 1024x768?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

hi,

I have been having problems with screen resolution in that i develop images/animation in screen resolution 1024 X 768 and when i view it using 800 X 600, the images/animation do not look good. i've read that the full screen command for flash can be used for this, but i dont exactly know how.

how do you use it so that the animation still looks good regardless of any screen resolution??

How Can One Change The Screen Resolution
Hi ppl.

Does anyone know how to change the screen resolution of the user. Wht i am trying to achieve is this:- my presentation has been made in 800x600 resolution.. if someone watches it on a higher resolution then bitmaps get pixelated which is definitely not desirable... the reverse happens on a lower resolution. please dont give me inputs on how to manage my bitmaps.... but rather on how can i make sure tht no matter wht the resolution of the user ... once he runs the projector his resolution is changed to 800x600.

Resizing The Screen Resolution
Hi folks @ flashkit.
Does anybody here have a small exe or whatever code that we can call it using fscommand to change the user screen resolution?
Here it's not for web ,just for playing back from CD,...

For those who think this is useless I should remind of how FLash gets slow when it has to for example resize a 640*480 movie (mpg,..) in a 2048*1536 screen resolution.

Screen Resolution Solutions
Hi.

I'm looking for a way to detect the end users screen resolution and then adjust it to the way I'd like it to look.

The resolution I use is 1024 X 768. When I emailed some friends to look at what's on the net so far, some have told me that it's "too big" or "some parts of it go off the screen." I thought it was a browser problem until I tried setting my resolution to 800 X 600, and sure enough, there were the same symptoms before my eyes.

Is it idealistic of me to want some continuity of look across different resolutions and computers? I know that system information can be retrieved in MX, and I know that the stage object is a work-around toward this end. I just don't have any idea how to do it.

The pseudo-code I'd like to write would go something like this:

"If users screen resolution is set at 800 X 600 (and/or other resolutions), adjust stage to look like it does at 1024 X 768."

I know this sounds ridiculous, but then, I'm a novice at ActionScripting. Any code hints and tips would be greatly appreciated. I'm sure the professional developers out there MUST have run into this problem before.

If for any reason you'd like to see what I'm testing on the net so far, go to:

Thanks in advance...

Screen Size / Resolution?
Hey

I was wondering if anyone could answer this for me:

I want to create a Flash MX 1024 x 768 px web page.
But if someone views it at 800 x 600 it will be croped but not show the slider bars.

There is a good example of this at: www.kitk.org

Try it in 1024 x 768 then in 800 x 600.
He is able to crop the site even though the flash component covers the whole 1024 x 768 space.

I hope you can understand what I mean!
I have not been able to reproduce this in any of the publishing settings.
Is there action script code for this type of thing?

Any help appreciated.
Cheers, werglum
