    need help on movie dimensions

    Hi all !!

    First ... English is not my mother tongue .. so please ... sorry for my mistakes ;)

    I'm a new user of Flash MX.
    I made a scene with many layers. I put 1 symbole per layer.
    I set the dimensions of my scene in its properties : 300 * 1200 pixels
    Some layers have motion tween animation with the symbol of the starting key frame put outside of the scene. In other words, the first symbol of the tween is outside of my 300*1200 pixels scene and will go inside.
    My probleme is : when I exporte the scene as a SWF movie ... the movie is not 300*1200 pixels sized !!!
    The dimensions of the movie are adjusted to display all the symbols even if they are outside of the scene.
    I did not adjuste the dimensions of my scene to its content ...
    So .. I need help ;)

    Thanx 4 Ur futur answers.

    how did u set the dimensions of the scene??? i thought u cud set the dimensions of either the stage or the MCs...

    also the are u viewing the swf while it's embedded in an html or the swf directly.... when its embedded in the html u'll only see the stuff which appears on stage... but if u r viewing the swf in the flash player or flash itself.... and the window is maximised... and u r viewing it at 100% then u will be able to view the stuff which is off stage
