RE: FLASH: Flash 4 Scaling

[Ed Harvey]

I looked it over again and what seems to be happening is that the object

size is adding one to the original size. When I get info on the objects h

and w they both = 100. But when I select it in the swf preview it returns it

as h and w = 101. I think that is why it is returning it as 50.5. the script

that I am using to get the h = w is 


            Set Variable: "Width" = GetProperty ( myName,_height)

            Set Variable: "Length" = GetProperty ( myName,_width )


Can you tell me why it seems to add one to the object size. Thanks,


Ed
