Constraints and Browser Scrollbars

I am trying to create an application that is targeted for a resolution of 1024x768. For those will larger resolutions I would like the application to scale to the available area. For those with smaller resolutions I would like the browsers scroll bars to be visable to allow users to still be able to navigate the application.
The applications should not get smaller than 1024x768 but should be allowed to get bigger. I've used constraints to allow the expansion of the area and that works  fine, however when I resize the browser to an area of 500x500, the browsers scrollbars do not appear (I would expect them to), meaning that if you have a res of 500x500 then you would not be able to navigate the applications. I've tried using minWidth and maxWidth on the Application but the scrollbars do not show up.
Is there something that I am missing or just not understanding?

Hi jkrysinski,
Write a Flex ResizeEvent.RESIZE at Global level and handle the screen resolution in the handler and based on the screen dimensions(your browser dimensions) you dynamically assign the size to your application instead of statically assigning the application size at compile time.
If your screen size is greater than your normal resolution (1024x768) give the application dimesnions in percentages and if it is less than the normal resolution then fix the application size to your normal resolution (1024x768).
Hope this works for you...

  • Browser scrollbar and Flash scrollbar ? I need help!

    Now I have a problem about the scrollbar:
    The height of my swf file is longer than browser height, so
    the scrollbar of browser's occurred, if I scroll my mouse wheel,
    the whole flash roll down, but the problem is that I have used a
    scrollPanel component which write by myself, and in this situation,
    when I scroll the mouse wheel, the scrollbar in flash and browser
    will both in effect.
    The question is that how to disable the brower scrollbar when
    I scroll mouse wheel inside the scrollPanel component. In fact,
    adobe already done this, if my cursor inside a textfield object,
    the scrollbar of bowser will not get focus. How to achieve this
    effect? My english is bad, but I need help!

    i recently downloaded trails of flash cs4 and web premium package cs4 (took a day to download at high speed starbuck's internet). couldnt get the setup.exe to work or the uninstaller to work. surfing tech support over next couple weeks to try various agents was useless and expensive until i finally reached someone with useful info. all the agents had foriegn accents and read from scripts and web support pages until yesterday, when i reached a guy who told me two things i'll report to various forums addressing this same issue:
    1. download windows uninstaller program from their website (google: windows ininstaller). this program is different from the one that doesnt work in the programs and features area of control panel when you try to uninstall adobe products from there.
    2. windows explorer 8, the newest version, DOES NOT download adobe softare properly and leaves things out, causing all sorts of issues including the setup.exe program not working. download firefox browser from mozella (google: firefox) and use it for all adobe downloads. apparently the old windows explorer 7 will work, but if you already have explorer 8 installed its easiest to just use firefox.
    i'm spending the next couple days downloading the 4.14 G web premium trail with firefox and will report if this works.

  • Browser scrollbar scripting?

    I've done a bit of research and still not to sure how exactly
    to do this...
    If you have a fullscreen flash site, by default your browser
    scrollbar is disabled. So if someone's screen is smaller than the
    site, they can't scroll to see whats off the page. How do you
    enable the browser scrollbar with a fullscreen flash site?

    Well I figured you were talking about making my flash movie a
    pixel value instead of percent. But I figured I'd try the
    <div> tag anyway, but no luck there. It constrains the flash
    movie to the size of the <div>.
    So changing my movie to a pixel value isnt really what I'm
    looking to accomplish. (unless there's a way to assign a pixel
    value, but still make it fill 100% of the window) Here is an
    example of the site I'm working on:
    click here.
    As you can/will see, I have limited the amount of content in
    the body, and I cant add anything below that because some monitors
    wouldn't be able to scroll to it.
    Hopefully this helps interpret what I'm trying to do.

  • Controling browser scrollbars when MC changes height?

    Is there a way to have the browser scrollbars show up when a
    MovieClip's height increases ?

    if you want to use the swfobject to resize the browser
    window, download the swfobject.js javascript file and put it in the
    same directory with your swf's html page and read about how to
    embed your swf using it.
    you can then call the resizeSWF() function (passing the new
    height parameter causing the browser window to increase in height
    and displaying scrollbars, if they are needed) by using the
    externalinterface class:

  • Lightbox Error - Browser resizing background by a few pixels when closing, causing browser scrollbar

    I've noticed that when using a lightbox there's an error that commonly occurs. When you close the lightbox, it shifts the browser window size around 5 pixels and creates scrollbars and then shifts back. It's a small error, but looking at the code it looks like it's resizing the background when closing for some reason, and adding the scrollbars and then shifting the browser window size.
    (Reposted from old forum – Since the bug is still there when using lightbox)
    Is anyone with adobe gonna comment on issuse. Why would pay for Muse if there is no help from the support team when help or feedback is wanted.???

    I'm now getting a similar error, My website is a single page, anchor scrolled site, and so has a scrollbar at the side.
    When lightbox is opened, the sidebar goes, making the site jump sideways, then back again when the lightbox is closed and the scrollbar reappears.
    It's very untidy looking and I really dislike it.

  • Browser ScrollBar Problem

    Hallo, i have a little issue. I have my flex application running in my Browser and the application is 1200pixels height so that the browser is enabling the scrollbar to reach the bottom parts. The problem is that inside my application i have another scrollbar which belongs to a list component and when i use the mouse wheel the list goes down but the browser page goes too due to browser scrollbar. How can i fix this problem??.. I shoud find a way to not make browser scrollbars listen to the mouse wheel event when i am on the list and to listen it only when i am not on the list... is that possible??
    Thx and sry for bad english.
    Max

    what you are asking sounds possible can you post your code on here so we can try to debug with you.
    Thanks

  • Flex2 (beta3) apps don't work with Firefox when browser scrollbars appear

    I ran into a very strange situation where my flex2 (beta2 and
    beta3) application is big enough to cause browser scrollbars to
    appear. In such a case, if I scroll the browser, then all button
    controls in the flex2 app can not listen to mouse events any more.
    I found this problem with Firefox (v1.5) in Windows XP. IE in XP is
    perfectly fine. Below is the code, simple enough to illustrate my
    situation. To test, please compile the first file into test.swf,
    and then access test.html form Firefox. Thanks.

    well i can say in dark,, many have done this solution, if its
    right even for u
    just clear ur cache using the ASO zip file available on
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?extid=1016963&view=sn111
    Now all the packages /missing file would get imported.could
    be some
    class definitions are'nt getting replaced
    (i faced this kinda problem before.. my old swf';s were
    getting played.. so i just cleared the cache and problem was
    solved)

  • Difference between unique constraint and unique index

    1. What is the difference between unique constraint and unique index when unique constraint is always indexed ? Which one is better in this case for better performance ?
    2. Is Composite index of 3 columns x,y,z better
    or having independent/ seperate indexes on 3 columns x,y,z is better for better performance ?
    3. It has been very confusing for me to decide which columns to index, I have indexed most foreignkey columns, is it a good idea ? We do lot of selects and DMLS on most of our tables. Is there any query that I can run and find out if indexes are really being used and if they are improving any performance. I have analyzed and computed my indexes using ANALYZE index index_name validate structure and COMPUTE STATISTICS;
    null

    1. Unique index is part of unique constraint. Of course you can create standalone unique index. But is is no point to skip the logical view of business if you spend same effort to achive.
    You create unique const. Oracle create the unique index for you. You may specify index characteristic in unique constraint.
    2. Depends. You can't utilize the composite index if the searching condition is not whole or front part of the indexing key. You can't utilize your index if you query the table for y=2. That is.
    3. As old words in database arena, Index may be good or bad for a table depending on the size of table, number of columns in the table... etc. It is very environmental dependent. In fact, It is part of database nomalization. Statistic is a way oracle use to determine the execution plan.

  • Design view and browser view in DW are different than when I view from local folder

    I'm brand new to Dreamweaver CS5.5 and here is my problem:
    I've made an html page in dreamweaver with a banner, with an additional graphic and some text on top of the banner.  It displays just fine in every browser when I view from the local folder, but when I open DW and view, it displays incorrectly in all three design, live and browser views within DW.  If I make changes to the css file until it views correctly in design view, it no longer displays correctly from the local folder and it still doesn't view correctly in live or browser view within DW.  If what I'm doing isnt going to display accurately in any of the views provided by Dreamweaver as compared to the live server, whats the point in having this software?  I could just keep building webpages in notepad and uploading with CoreFTP.
    Any suggestions?  Is it some setting that I dont know about that I need to change within DW?   Please help.

    align="center" is deprecated (obsolete) code in XHTML & HTML5 doc types.  Instead of styling markup with HTML, you should be using CSS. 
    CSS
    .center {text-align:center}
    HTML
    <p class="center">some centered text here</p>
    With respect to break tags, in XHTML doc types the correct syntax is <br /> not <br>.  However your usage of line breaks is inconsistent with good symantic markup.  Use headings <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> for important keywords.  Use <p> for descriptive paragraphs.  Use <ul> <li> or <ol> <li> for lists.  Line breaks should be used minimally if ever.
    XHTML doc types require all tags to be lowercase.  Uppercase tags will throw errors.
    Your design is too rigid.  When text size is increased in browsers, your content is unreadable.  See screenshot.
    SOLUTIONS:
    1) DO NOT USE POSITION ABSOLUTE.  You don't need it.  Absolute positioning removes content from the normal document flow resulting in a jumbled mess.  Use default CSS positioning (none) with margins, padding & floats to align elements.
    2) Remove HEIGHT values from all CSS containers.  Height limits a container's capacity to hold more content when needed.  Container height should always be determined by the amount of content it holds; not explicit values.  If required to reveal a background image, for example, use CSS min-height instead of height.

  • Email and Browser

    It have noticed by watching some of the competitors software that the email and browser currently written by RIM is getting very antiquated.
    There are other browsers out for competitors products that have greatly surpassed the capabilities of the Blackberry Internet browser. 
    Also I have noticed a bunch of truncated messages in email that the competitors are able to download complete.
    This is not to flame Blackberry, but more to find out what blackberry is planning to continue to be a leader in this industry and in what time frame we can expect this.
    Apple is now pursuing the enterprise level security that has held them back from being a business class device. If this happens then RIM will have some major competition on their hands. That combined with their web browser will make them a leading device and open up avenues for them to take over in the business arena.
    I personally will never move to an Apple product just because I've been there done that and wasn't very pleased. That was years ago with Apple computers. Also, as long as Apple uses a built in battery I will consider then an inferior product. But with the other innovations in their operating system, web browser and other abilities they are quickly becoming a major threat that has put RIM in the position of catch up.
    This is a much talked about issue in other enthusiast's forum's and something that RIM needs to address, so I would like to find out what RIM has in mind as I consider my next device which is due for replacement now.

    Was reading this article before. I think RIM is aware of other competing browser's features, so they're taking steps to get the BlackBerry Browser up to date

  • Remote app and Browsing Albums

    So, I installed the Remote app directly onto the iPod Touch and set it up with no problems. Within a minute I was able to download, install, browse, and actually control my iTunes library!
    I found one snag. I would like to use the Album browse feature, but I see problems with it. One good specific example is the album "Genius Loves Company" (GREAT ALBUM). when I'm browsing my library through this app, the album shows up 12 times and each instance only has one track in it. So, I can only play one song at a time and then the player stops. Very annoying.
    Has anyone else seen this? If so, anyone know a fix/workaround?
    Album link: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?i=219987585&id=12316 7557

    Hmm odd one. My first thought here is there's possibly some glitch in the way that Album's files are tagged.
    Try this:
    Fire up iTunes. Click on 'music' under the Library. Highlight all the tracks in that album in the main window. Go to File -> Get info (answer 'yes' to the pop-up question about editing multiple items). Under the 'info' tab, re-type the name of the album into the 'album' field, and Hit 'OK'. This will resolve any discrepancies re the tagging of the album name.
    Fire up remote again and browse to that album, see if it's fixed the issue.
