Background
is it possible to split the background colour so top half is one colour and bottom half is another? or... do you have to turn the whole "background" into part of your swf. if that makes sense. T.-

Transparent Background/ XML Code To Change The Background Colour
Hi,
In a bit of a pickle here; I need a way to insert a swf file into any color background website, so it automatically matches up.
Now, can one make the swf files background transparent? And match the background of any given websites background?
Or, can one use some sort of XML file and simply change this xml file to match the background color of the website?
Now, what if the website uses a particulare pic background? How would one match this?
As usual folks, I am stuck between a rock and a hard place, so any help deeply apprecaiteed!
Kind Regards,

HTML Background Matching Flash Background
Hey, I have a flash website that opens as a pop up, the pop auto fullscreens. The background in the flash document is a gradient, and I have a gradient in the background of the html. My question is how would I get the background of the HTML to always match up with the flash background using a percentage?

Printing A MC With White Background, Not Stage Background?
I’m trying to print a movieclip with a white background while keeping the stage background black. The movieclip, printResults_mc has a white rectangle in the bottom layer, 850 pixels x 1100 pixels. The following function scales printResults_mc to the printer’s printable area but because it’s impossible to predict the aspect ratio of the printable area some black background always leaks out. I tried making the white background 20 pixels larger than I need (870 x 1120) and then setting a crop rectangle in addPage of (10,10,850,1100), no luck, the black stage background just fills in the area outside the crop. A simple solution would be to temporarily set the stage background color property to white, print, then set it back to black, but I can’t find any such property. Anyone have some ideas?
Attach Code
function printResults(e:MouseEvent):void {
var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
var result:Boolean = myPrintJob.start();
var pageMargin:Number = 0;
if (result) {
prepPage();
var cropRect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(pageMargin,pageMargin,printResults_mc.width-pageMargin,printResults_mc.height-pageMargin);
printResults_mc.width = myPrintJob.pageWidth;
printResults_mc.scaleY = printResults_mc.scaleX
myPrintJob.addPage(printResults_mc,cropRect);
myPrintJob.send();
} else {
//User does not have printer or user canceled print action
};
}

alright, i guess im pretty new to flash but i was wondering, when you make a background image for a flash page, (in photoshop for me) what format do you save it as to get the best picture? ive tried .png and it comes out blurry and has a lot of miscolored pixels, .jpg comes out the same way, .gif was very bad, it was even distorted. i figured bitmap would be too big of a file size so i didnt try, but what does every use to get good quality pictures?

Is it possible to have a transparent background and put it "behind" an html page? Because all I want is a custom cursor and it would take too long to convert the whole site to flash.

Hey guys:
I was wondering if you guys could give me a few tips about how to get started on how to design a site with Flash. MY main problem is to decide how to find and use a background. I find that as the hardest thing to do and in most cases my site end up without any pictures and just pretty much plain text. Pretty boring to be honest.
I was wondering as to what exactly you guys do to get started on designing a site(s). How do you choose the background, how do you decide what kind of animation to put in it. I am a computer engineer and all my life i have pretty much been told what to do instead of being innovative and imaginative and do my own stuff (life Web Design needs to).
Now dont get me wrong .. i dont want to take up design as a profession but only want to be able to learn flash upto a point that I can atleast design a nice portfolio site for myself. I have understood a lot of Flash already and can create decent animations. The only problem I have then is that I dont know how to incorporate them in the site. Any kind of help will be appreciated.
Thanks

.exe Background
Hi folks,
I'm creating a flash movie 700x500 pixels to be published as an .exe on a CD
the .exe will autostart and display in the middle of the screen at 700x500 - but with the rest of the screen taken up by the background colour of the flash movie.
im using these commands ;
FSCommand("fullscreen", "true")
fscommand("allowscale","false");
What I'd like to know is can i replace the background movie colour with a .gif or .jpg file which will sit behind the main flash movie.
Thanks in advance for your help!

I was just wondering, how would you use a .swf file as a background?
Background Img
Let me start out by saying i am very unfamiliar with Flash MX 2004, The last version I used was 5, and even then I wasn't very into coding.
basically what I wanted to do was to loop a movie clip with a changing background image under it.
I have sucessfully done it will an array and loadmovie();
My real issue is preloading these imgs before the entire loop starts or finding a way to swap these images not externally.

ok, is it possible to have a bg of a gradient that stretches and a pattern that tiles that goes over the gradient???

Background...?
k i believe i asked this question earlier but i cant find it now so i'm asking again: i want to know how you make a background move by itself i mean i want it so i can move my charecter yet the background will appear by itself at a the top of a certain boundary so i guess i want to know is how do i make a background so that it moves downward and appears and disappears at certain points along with any mc's that may be on top of it?
