Printing Specific Frames
Yes I know about "#P" and all that junk before you start answering .
My problem is a little more complicated.. at least I think it is...
Say I have a 10 frame movie and each of those frames has a stop action and a picture on it (for example). Each of those pages also has a print button.
How do I get the PrintAsBitMap function to JUST print the current frame it is on? Not ALL the pages, just the current frame.
Thanks in advance.

Printing Specific Frames
Hi
I am trying to work out printing from Flash. I have seen that to print a frame you make it's frame label '#p'. This however always prints each frame labelled '#p' on a print command.
I was wondering if there is a way to print specific frames depending on what the user has entered. For instance pressing one button prints one hidden frame and pressing another button prints a different hidden frame.
The print command im am using is : print(this,"bmax");
Cheers

Printing A Specific Movieclip
Hi! I have a swf with multiple movieclips on the stage. The user interaction involves adding images to one of the movieclips (the one outlined in red in the image below). I would like the user to then be able to print the movieclip that they were adding images to...NOT the whole stage.
I can kind of do this by specifying the print area, but I would rather not do this as it also prints some overlapping images (see image below).
I thought I remembered there being a way in AS2 to just print one of the movieclips on the stage, but I can't figure out how to do it in AS3.
Thanks for any help.

Printing Specific Frames
I'm trying to make a button that will print the contents of a specific frame without sending all other frames labeled as 'printable' (#p).
As it is now, whenever I click on the button it displays the printer dialog with all printable pages included. In order to print a specific page you have to set the range.
I'm using the following code:
on (release) {
printNum(2, "bmax");
}
Any parameters or something that could help me print a specific frame label or number?
My other problem is that all these frames load text from external files so if you try to print them when they're not showing on the screen, only the common graphic elements show.
Does anyboby knows if there's a workaround for this?
BTW I'm a newbie, if there's anybody wondering. Thanks in advance!

Printing Specific Frames In A Movie
I want to print the 5th and 10th frames within a movie.
I have attached this script to my print buttons:
on (release) {
printNum (0, "bframe");
}
and have labeled my printable frames as:
#p
but I am getting a WARNING: Duplicate label, Scene=Scene 1, Layer=Layer 3, Frame=10, Label=#p
I know I labled the two frames as #p, but I want to print more than one frame from this movie.
Any takers?

Printing Specific Frame On Scene 2
To all who can give a hand.
I am a newbie that embarked on to ambitious a project for his ignorance.
I hope that I will be clear in my confusion. I want to make a calendar that when the mouse rolls over a date brings up a larger text with written details for that day. I also want this day info to be printable.
I put up a movie with a graphic symbol for the month, days, and numbers. For the first day I put a button with this action:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndStop ("Scene 2", 1);
}
Second day:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndStop ("Scene 2", 2);
}
And so on for the other dates of the month.
On scene two, for every day I have a button with this action:
on (rollOut) {
gotoAndStop ("Scene 1", 1);
}
on (press) {
getURL ("print:", "/");
}
On the over state of this button I put a movie that is specific to that day.
I also put a #p label on the frame that I want to print.
This plan works but for the following points:
When I ask to print I get the graph of month thing and I don’t get the day detail wich is the only thing that I want to print and lastly the whole thing is much to heavy for an online publication.
What am I doing wrong? Code and or conception wise.
Thanks to all who will try to decipher this sort of mess.

Printing Size
Hi everybody!
I have built a flash movie with actions script that let me create a pole using different types of lamps, poles, arms etc.
When I finish configuring what I want, I sent that to the printer but it's printing just the size the movie was created. Is there any way that I can print what is on the movie at that exact point in time larger?
Thanks,

Printing And Automatic Size To Fit
Anyone know how to get a frame to just print at 100 percent without any scaling?
I'm trying to print a fixed size recipe card but cant figure out how to overcome the "size to fit" default that flash uses.
I tried setting my bounding box to 8.5 x 11, but it scales that box to fit the printable area of the printer.
That would be fine, but printable areas fluctuate.
Help!!!

Printing Wrong Size Please Help
I have a dynamically loaded jpg that loads into a mc container that stretches to fit the new loaded jpg. The problem is when I use the printAsBitmap function it doesn't print the correct size. Inside the container mc I have a solid color on the first frame on that frame I have the label #b this would be my bounding box. But it just ignores this. If you check out this link and try it it prints the size of a letterhead not the size of the original photo.
Please can someone help?
Code:
print_btn.onRelease = function() {
printAsBitmap(_root.container, "bframe");
};

Printing To Certain Size In Flash
I'm using the print function in flash to print out a certain movieclip. I only have one frame in my movie and the movieclip im printing on the stage is 290 x 365. This movieclip area prints out to a full 8.5 x 11 size on most printers, but on some it prints at actual size (290x365) Why is this?
Here's the code:
ActionScript Code:
printAsBitmap("workArea_mc","bmax");
Nothing is changed in the printers features that i know of, is this a common problem? Or better yet does anyone know how to print a mc to a certain size?

Printing From Flash - Size Trouble
I've put a print button in my flash file which has an action to print a specific frame as a bitmap.
if i print using the print button in explorer, the printed area fits on a page.
if i print using the print button in the swf, it blows off the page - too big
the swf is 790 pixels wide - at 72 dpi that is almost 11 inches, so I can see how it pushes the edge of a standard page.
Is there a way to tell the file to always print at, say, 90%???

Controlling Text Size When Printing
I have an input text field that the user can type information into and then print the page. However I can't seem to control the size of the font. The font appears to re-size depending on the amount of text in the text box. Is there a way where I can set the font size so it prints at 12 point regardless of the amount of text inputted?

Constraining Image Size When Printing?
I am trying to learn how to maintain the original image size when printing from Flash.
I have managed to source a tutorial (attached) but am not sure if this is thie right way to go about things as it seems to always stretch the image to the page size when printing. It also seems rather old as it was developed in F5, I have MX 2004 by the way.
Does anyone know how to amend the AS in the attached file so the clicked image remains at 100%, or if anyone knows of a good tutorial where I can do this myself would be much appreciated?
Thanks in advance.

Changing Page/scene Size For Printing
Hi;
I was wondering if it's possible to change the scene/page size for printing; my project starts out with an 800 x 600 scene but at print time, I want to arrange the different variables and objects to print to a standard 8.5 x 11 inch page (basically adding a header and footer); is this possible?
To make things harder, my project's final form will be a projector. :-(
Any help would be appreciated; if the info's in the manuals, please just point to the pages rather than retyping.
Thanks,

Open Specific Browser Size From An .exe?
Ok all you flash wizards out there, save me from biting off more than i can chew 8-) I need to link some html files from my flash .exe but can i stipulate the parameters for the first browser page i want to be opened from clicking the link button? Because it is CD-Rom based, I am having difficulties opening a browser window other than what the User has as a default size browser - whatever size it was when they last used it. I need to open into a specific size window, i have tried the get url and fs commands, but to no avail. Even tried some redirecting from the first browser page open that then opens a correct sized page, and closes itself. But when it does that, certain versions of IE ask if the user wants to close that page - which I don't want it to :-(
Any ideas, any inspiration, any miracles, please let it be a noob question with an easy answer.......

Browser Size At Specific Dimensions
Hi,
Is it possible for a flash site to open at a fixed browser size with the "full stretch" window option disabled (like with pop-ups). I've seen a site like that which uses the following code in the html file
------------------------------
// resize window
self.moveTo(0,0);
self.resizeTo(416,310);
------------------------------
Another option would be to autoload the main window of my site directly to a pop-up window (after typing the URL and press GO/ENTER), closing the cuurent window and linching my site in a pop-up
Any suggestions
Thank you
Stanno

Specific Bandwidth And Size Of Objects
Hello everyone, Just a quick question.
I know when you ctrl+enter a flash move, you can ctrl+b to bring up the bandwidth profiler. Is there any way to find out what those bars represent ? ie, what is using what amount of bandwidth ?
If it's possible using some other tool, that'd be great too - Any one know ?
