How do I make my movie compatible for all the different screen resolutions people use? I design my flash movies on a 1024x768 screen and I don't want objects near the "edge" to get cut off for people browsing at 800x600. Is there a way for the movie to auto-resize itself proportionately if it is.. say.. the top menubar of a web page?
You must edit the HTML code (if you aren't an expert, don't be afraid, it's very simply). Open the HTML file in a text editor like Notepad an find the EMBED code for the flash object; there are the Height & Width propietis. You must set both to 100% (a percentage relative to the window/frame, not an exact size in pixels, you see).
Does it work?
There are two other simple ways to force a movie to expand to full window view:
copy the following javascript code and paste it into the HEAD of the html file.
<SCRIPT Language="JavaScript">
document.parentWindow.moveTo(0,0) ;
document.parentWindow.resizeTo(screen.availwidth,s creen.availheight) ;
</SCRIPT>
But the easiest of all is to add a bit of actionscript in the first frame of your movie:
Select FS Command from the actions menu and then type in the following parameters.
FS Command ("fullscreen", "true")
Works like charm for me in Flash4. Hope this helps!
