Flash site resize question

[G's Dad]

I am trying to wrap my head around this principle but from another perspective. I am building a photography site and would like certain elements to resize and not the whole flash movie. For instance, I would like the image to resize but not the navigation, thumbnails or text. Can someone provide guidance? Thanks ahead of time.

This will allow your swf's dimensions to change without affecting any of the objects.

stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT; 

I personally don't know what the align property does but I've always used top left. After doing this, you can scale whatever objects you please according to the swf's dimensions using stage.stageWidth and stage.stageHeight.
