Well, yes and no. You can set your flash file to display fullscreen, for

instance, which gives a very nice effect, or you can constrain it to a

specific size, which is great for such things as banners, navigation

bars and such.

You mean integrated into other content? Or do you mean instead running

standalone in the browser window? If the latter you should just be able

to drag your SWF file over the browser window and drop it to see it play

back in full screen mode for the browser window's current dimensions.

Personally I use trial and error and practice... ;) Doing it and seeing

what happens is the most effective way to pick it up, at least so it

seems to me.


Measurements... whatever suits your production. I don't think there are

any set rules there, but I could be wrong...
