Re: FLASH: HOW - utilizing browser space

[CK]

What about stage sizes? Does it matter what stage size I use if I want to fill the browser window?

If I use showall, all of my offstage stuff shows up


What do most people use ?? It seems like other sites I visit are utilizing the browser window space


------------------------------------


You've got a little bit of a conflict in your demands for 

that page.  You can't fill the browser window with your 

movie and expect to maintain scale across all kinds

of browser heights and widths.  If it fills the browser in

a 100% by 100% manner, it will stretch or shrink 

whenever it has to.


The only thing I can suggest is to use 100% X 100%

and 'default (show all)' in your publish settings.  This 

has a first priority of maintaining the scale (no stretching

or shrinking), and a second priority of filling the browser

window.  


Setting margin width and height to 0 (in the body tag) will 

get rid of any extra margins there are (in IE at least) and 

putting that all in a one-frame frameset will really make 

sure that the SWF gets right to the edge whenever it can.
