I recently created a site with SWiSHmax. The dimensions were 800x600. I was intending for it to fit perfectly in the browser in 800x600 resolution. Obviously higher resolutions wouldnt present a problem either. But i forgot the browser is included in the size. So now its too large to fit without scrolling. Is there anyway to proportionately (spelling) shrink the movie so i dont have to also resize all the buttons and text too? Hope this makes sense.
Hi gillbell04,
One thing you could try is to convert you site to a sprite... if you have multiple scenes .... convert the contents of each scene into a sprite....then resize it the size you want and then "ungroup" it again. It should resize then without any problems.
Don't forget to always save a back up before changing anything.

Use Group->Group as Sprite.
Convert to Sprite won't ungroup well.
You guys rock my socks off.
Thanks mates.
Sorry 'bout that. This link may help.
DR,
Did you put a wrong link in. This is where the link goes:
https://www.socks.com/webapp/wcs/sto...egory_rn=10217
It's a "secure" connection for various socks to buy. ??

Wouldnt this work? posting this as the code in a html file.. resubmit the hight, and width properties to the right size.
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" width="800" height="500">
<param name=movie value="http://www.yoursite/file.swf">
<param name=quality value="high">
<PARAM NAME=menu VALUE=false>
<embed src="http://www.yoursite/file.swf" quality="high" width="800" height="500" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed>

If this wouldnt work, or isnt the best way-- can some one tell me why not?

JWR: The link was correct, and in response toEventually, you'll begin to understand my bizarre sense of humor.Quote:

Yes, you could do that, but it will most likely yield some less-than-desireable results.Quote:

First, you are distorting the original aspect ratio of the movie, which is about the same effect as setting the H & W to "100%" and setting Scale to "Exact Fit". Basically, it squishes the movie.
Second, depending on the contents of the movie, many objects do not scale well. Gifs and other graphics often degrade and pixelate and fonts (especially pixel fonts) become fuzzy when they are moved from an X or Y coordinate or a size that is not an integer.
Your best bet is to allow space for the browser "chrome" and some room on the x-axis for the window border, scroll bar, etc.
Ahh!! thanks for the info! Ever since joining these forums -- my brain is fried from learning so much!
-- I cant handle this site and school at the same time!!
