RE: FLASH: simple problem - brain can't think of answer!

[Jason Bouwmeester]

Marie,


I think that what your problem is here is that you have your movie width and

height set to 100%. What this does is it will keep the proper movie

relational dimensions bit it will have either the height or the width set to

100% of the browser window. There are 3 ways to fix this.


1) Set your width and height to the width and height of the movie.

2) Set your <aram name=scale value=exactfit> and scale=exactfit - this will

cause your movie to distort though if the browser is in a different

dimension than your movie.

3) Can go into your movie and add a top layer that would mask the bottom

layers so that when it does resize, you won't see it... the problem with

this though is it probably won't work considering the last frames of your

movie.


HTH,
