Flash :: Space Appearing Above Movie When Window Resized

Space Appearing At Bottom Of Site?
Maybe someone can help me figure this situation out. I know I've posted this question before and I thought I had rectified it.

No such luck.

On load in of my site, if the user scrolls to the site floor (absolute bottom) a space is present<<<this I don't want. When the site is refreshed, the space is no longer present.

I'm lost.

I've constructed the site by setting up a table which holds 3 swf's stacked on top of one another. On either side of these swf's are gif's used to transition into the background color. The bottom swf was sized in a way that I thought would push the bottom of the file beyond the viewers range <<<not working out that way.

Anybody have a clue how to address this?

Here it is!!!

Scrolling Window Messed Up When Resized
Allright I've got a background that goes from light blue to dark blue, bottom to top, and I have it move down in a motion tween to give the effect of a sunset, mk.

And I've also got a path along the bottom that moves left, both are bigger then my selected canvas size of 350x300, but when the image is resized you can see the parts of my symbols that are supposed to be off of the canvas... how can I fix this very tacky and annoying problem? please help

Thanks,

Foo.send() To Open In A Resized Window
Is there a way I can get the method .send() in loadVars to post its data in a new window that can be resized, locked in position, min and max buttons removed etc. It would be sort of like combining the two functions below:

Code:
my_lv.send("setscore.php", "_blank", "POST");
getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('setscore.php','newWin','width=750,scrollbars=1,resizable=1,height=600,left=100,top=100,screenX=100,screenY=100, location=0');NewWindow.focus();void(0);");

Opening A Resized Window From Flash
Hi there.

I am trying to open a window from a link in Flash, the window has to be resized and with no menu, address, scroll, bars etc etc.

I know this can be done as I've seen other sites doing it. I presume it'd have to be done through the "expert" actions, but I can find no info on it anywhere.

Any ideas?!?

In case you are interested, the link will be to open a full size image from a thumbnail. Would it even be possible to create a page such as /images.php?image=*** and have the window auto resize to the image loaded into the dynamic page and also lose the additional elements to the window?

Many Thanks
Günter

How To Open Resized Window From Flash
what is the best method to open a resized and repositioned window from flash that has no scrollbars, address bar, etc ?
And also that doesnt get blocked as a popup in IE.

Scrollbar Auto-resized With Window Size
My first post here! I did a search on this first but didn't find a solution...

I would like to be able to have the bottom button of a scrollbar, remain clickable at the foot of a page. Such that, if the window is resized, the scroll bar will also resize with it (the bottom button of the scroll bar remains there).

To show you exactly what I mean, the following site does exactly what I am trying to achieve: (look bottom right)

Many thanks in advance for any help. Please try to keep the instructions relatively clear, I wouldn't consider myself an extreme expert. Many thanks.

Full-screen Swf Wont Auto-resize Until Browser Window Is Resized
Hello All,
I posted me test here at http://www.urbanlinx.com/Test.swf.
I have 4 MCs in the movie. A header, content box (center), footer, and background image.
When the browser is scaled the background scales in proportion to the widow and keeps its aspect ratio.
My problem: when the clip is first loaded, the background does not resize until the browser is manualy resized by the user.
Is there some code I can add that will check the window size before the movie loads?

My code is attached.
stop();

Stage.scaleMode = "noscale";
Stage.align = "tl";
Stage.addListener({onResize:reposition});

function reposition() {
var header = _root.myHeader_mc;
var bg = _root.image_mc;
var content = _root.myContent_mc;
var footer = _root.myFooter_mc;

var nPos;

nPos = getNewPosition(header);
header._x = nPos.x;
header._y = 0;

nPos = getNewPosition(content);
content._x = nPos.x;
content._y = nPos.y;

nPos = getNewPosition(bg);
bg._x = nPos.x;
bg._y = nPos.y;

nPos = getNewPosition(footer);
footer._x = nPos.x;
footer._y = Stage.height - footer._height;
};

function getNewPosition(mc) {
var newX = Math.floor((Stage.width - mc._width) / 2);
var newY = Math.floor((Stage.height - mc._height) / 2);
return {x:newX, y:newY};
};

reposition();

Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
//Auto Resize
stageListener = new Object();
stageListener.onResize = function() {
backgroundResize(_root.image_mc);
};
Stage.addListener(stageListener);
//Background Resize
function backgroundResize(image) {
var imageHeight = 400;
var imageWidth = 700;
var wRatio = Stage.width/imageWidth;
var hRatio = Stage.height/imageHeight;
//Larger Ratio
if (wRatio>hRatio) {
var ratio = wRatio;
} else {
var ratio = hRatio;
}
//Resize
if (Stage.width<=imageWidth && Stage.height<=imageHeight) {
image._width = imageWidth;
image._height = imageHeight;
} else {
image._width = imageWidth*ratio;
image._height = imageHeight*ratio;
}
}
backgroundResize(_root.image_mc);

Special thanks in advanced.

PS: if you know a way to accomplish this with cleaner code, the help would be greatly appreciated... if it is already good code... thanks to all the people in the community who taught me :)

Pop Up Window Appearing With Huge Border
I am not sure if this is a flash or javascript issue but when the automatic pop up window appears it does so with a large white border.

Here is the javascript code (from an online code generator)
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function popUp(URL) {
day = new Date();
id = day.getTime();
eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,location=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=215,height=250,left = 404.5,top = 259');");
}
// End -->

Complete Movie Needs To Be Resized
please forgive me for posting a question that's already been asked numerous times. to minimize wasting your time I did search the forums but the problem I ran into was just me getting more confused.

my question, I have made a complete flash site and found that I need to resize it. is there any easy solution to resize everything (objects, text, etc) without manually resizing everything one by one? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Resized Movie Is Pixelated
Hi everyone - I used some software to record screen movements (so you can create a software demo) - the software creates a SWF file which I placed on the stage.

In some cases, I want to show the movie at a reduced size (i.e. 33%). When I resize the movie and then preview it, the image is pixelated and unclear.

I believe this is due to the resizing.

Are there any good solutions?

I need to use the movie at various sizes including 100% through the timeline.

Thanks

I have a very strange issue. Not sure if it's something related to my Machine.

Please check attached jpg file.

My machine config are:
Linux Fedora Core 5.
Flash Player 7
Browser Netscape 7.2 and Firefox 1.5.

Can anyone help me in identifying the cause of trouble? Is it OS specific or Player specific problem?

Thanks,

Text Doesn't Fit When Movie Resized
Through HTML, I have a movie being resized in a table based on the user screen resolution - in this case either 800x600 or 1024x768.

In the movie, I am using dynamic text fileds calling out to a .txt file. At 800x600, the dynamic text fits in the text field properly, but once resized, the text size slightly increases, or something, and the text no longer fits the text box perfectly.

Anyone have any suggestions regarding this.

Thanks,

Repositioning Content When A Movie Is Resized
I was reading the technote at moock's technote and I was trying to have a horizontal line going across the screen. And resizing as the screen resizes.
Can it be done using attachMovie?

Any ideas?

Can Flash Movie Be Dynamically Resized?
Can Flash movie be dynamically resized? What I mean is the swf movie embedded in an HTML file for example takes on a different size, length, for example.

Say the original size is 800 (w) x 600 (h) px when the movie starts. now user has clicked a link and the next MC that's loaded into the original movie is taller because of a lengthy text area, say 800 (w) x 900 (h) px. Can the original movie be resized, if it doesn't fit the screen then the browsers scrollbar can be used.

Thanks for any ideas.

Flash Movie Sliding As Browser Is Resized
Hi,

Im sure everyone has seen this : www.hybridworks.jp (hot!). Anyway I've seen this done on a few sites now as was wondering how . . . when the browser is resized, the flash movie sliiiides to the center, very slick. I was wondering what technique is used and could someone please explain how to do it?

Thanks, any help much appreciated

When The Browser Is Resized, How Do I Make The Movie Resize?
When the browser is resized, how do I make the movie resize?

I made this page here:
http://www.LineDetail.com/fullscreen.php

in the HTML parameters, I put width 100% and height 100% and in the .swf file I have:
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";

That helps make my objects not get stretched out, and the align code to help position my items.

Now, I notice if I were to shrink or make my browser stretch out. The swf doesn't resize on it's own to fill the space when larger or resize when you shrink the browser width/height. I've been told to use a listener, but I have no idea how it works, I've tried putting in scripts with no luck.

If you have a 2.0 script or can help me here I'd appreciate it!

Thanks,

How Do You Get An Accurate Info About Images In A Resized Movie Clip?
Hello all,
I am trying to develop a best practice for my department. We create onilne ads. Recently our higher ups have changed our ads sizes so we have had to go back through our ads(336x850) and change them to 300x600. Not a proportional change. We thought that by nesting the layers of the original ads inside of a Movie Clip we at least resize the either the height or the width when we brought the Movie Clip into the new file size(300x600). Saving a bit of time.

Now my problem is that the images don't look as good when they are scaled down. I tried to find the new scaled size by selecting the image inside the movie clip. So I could edit the original bitmaps, but the new size in the info palette (W,H) doesn't reflect the scale down. It still shows the original size. Is there anyway to have the pic's info accurately reflected when editing images inside a movie clip? Sorry about being so long winded and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Lines Appearing On Movie
Hi,

I have created a fairly simple movie which looks fine when i'm designing it, but when i test it, or embed it in a webpage thin horizontal lines appear next to some of the buttons..i have tested the movie on a few machines and the lines appear on them all.

Does anyone know why this might be happening? Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers.

Movie Clip Not Appearing
I'm new to AS3 and I'm getting completely confused.
I have two .as files with 2 classes, Map and Grabber. A function in Map is called by the .fla because it is the document class. The function creates all the blocks then does some other functions that I know work. The trouble comes when it calls a (buildclaw) in the second class (Grabber). The code is executed but the MovieClips it "addChild"s (centerpole) is not added. If I use exactly the same adding code in the map function it works why is this?

Attached is the files if you need them.

Grabber:

ActionScript Code:
package{

import flash.events.*;
import flash.display.*;
import flash.utils.*;
import flash.geom.*;
import flash.text.*;
import flash.net.*;
import flash.ui.*;

public class Grabber extends MovieClip{

public var poles:Array = new Array();          // create an array for the poles

public var leftgrabberstatus:int;

public var rightgrabberstatus:int;

public var amountofpoles:uint = 5;

public var amountofpolesvisable:uint = amountofpoles;

public function buildclaw(){

for (var j=0; j < amountofpoles;j++){
trace('Makes poles');
var centerpole:platform_tile_white = new platform_tile_white;
addChild(centerpole);                         //put it on the screen
centerpole.gotoAndStop(1); //give it the right frame
centerpole.x = 30;
centerpole.y = 30;
poles.push(centerpole);        //put it in an array
}
trace(poles);
}

}

Movie Navigation Not Appearing?
Hi there,

Ok so, I have these two .fla's where one is working http://www.peugeot.com.au/peugeot/au.../vid3high.html and one that isn't working http://www.peugeot.com.au/peugeot/au/clientdocs/asp/minisites/rwc2007/vid4high.html

You can see that the nav is missing from vid4... but for the life of me I can't see what the difference is between the two .fla's...?? (attached)
I'm also not sure why when you just preview the .swf's that these create, you can't see the nav, but when it's uploaded in an html page you can...?

Needless to say, I didn't build this I've just been asked to fix it...

Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Help With .txt File Not Appearing In Loaded Movie
I am sure this is a simple fix for an experienced AS programmer (which I am not). The news.fla file I attached loads a html file (news.txt) into a dynamic field. It works fine when I play the file alone. But I have a larger movie that when I click a button in that movie I want it to load this swf file in. When that happens it doesn't display the html file anymore.
If someone could please take a quick peak at my code and give me a recommendation I would really appreciate it. I just don't know what else to try.

Thanks so much!!
