Flash Full Browser Window & Scaling Question

Hi all, I am trying to develop a site that will be able to
have the entire browser screen a flash movie. Also, how do I scale
it so that the image in the middle stays the same size but the
background scales depending on how far you drag the browser window.
It is very popular in Flash design now, and I just cant seem to get
it to work for me. Below are a few examples of what I am trying to
achieve. Thanks in advance.

Hmm. I had a look at all 4 links to the sites you posted.
VERY COOL sites. I shall be watching this thread closely 'cause
this is what I'm trying to develop. I'm busy trying to re-design my
photography website in Flash and have the same problem... I cannot
get it to scale 100% of all browsers - only the resolution it was
designed at (in this case 1024x678. Even so, when I import the HTML
file from Flash to Dreamweaver, it has a invisible border of a cm
or so around the edge of the screen so the graphics don't extend to
100% of the browser.
Many thanks in advance

  • Full browser window

    Hi Guys
    I found a method of filling the full browser window, with
    footer always at bottom, that I used here:
    www.tragicallyunhip.net
    The method works a treat, but I wasn't happy with that design
    so I tried out something new here:
    www.tragicallyunhip.net/temp
    And here I added a little extra, wanting to have the gradient
    on top and bottom like I do.
    If you view it in IE7 all is well. In FF, not so much. I
    added two divs around the table which fills the screen, and this is
    the issue. In FF it isn't filling the screen, despite the fact that
    the two DIVS (one to house the top half's background image, the
    other to house the bottom half's) are wrapping around a table
    which, when left alone like in the first example, fills width and
    height perfectly.
    I am hoping there is a fix for this.... I like this idea and
    would love to have it work out. I tried having the bottom
    background fill a footer cell in the table (like the footer in the
    first example) instead of a wrapper DIV, and while it fills the
    screen, I can't then get it to go behind the main content like I
    want to.
    Andy

    I might have fixed it...
    http://www.tragicallyunhip.net/temp/index2.html
    Can someone tell me how ohrribly broken this is in IE6, if at
    all? Or any other issues.
    Thanks

  • Full browser window placeholder that acts like background image fill?

    I want to be able to set full browser window placeholder that acts like the background image fill function, but be able to then build in a multi-anchored horizontal parallax.  The effect is like we have a background image fill, but can slide horizontally between pages as if they are in a slide show.  Simultaneously, content inside the placeholder such as longer paragraphs of text can scroll down - on top of the image layer, but inside the borders of the image placeholder.  For a clear example of this, see this website: http://argonautinc.com/
    I've read and searched but to no avail.  I'm only about one week into Muse, so please forgive me if this is  super simple!   Thanks, Nico

    Hi Nico_Cineaste,
    You can achieve the design by using Fullscreen Slideshow in MUSE as object.
    Open any page in MUSE , click on the "Object" >> Slideshow >> Fullscreen.
    Click on your blank web page.
    This will give you a full screen slideshow.
    You can now design as per your requirement.
    Thanks

  • How do we set "Link That Displays Item In Full Browser Window" property?

    How can we set "Link That Displays Item In Full Browser Window" property? I could not find it. Thanks...

    I assume you're using Portal 3.0 (it always helps to mention which portal version you're using).
    I suggest you search this forum for "new window". You'll find several threads discussing how to implement this feature in Portal 3.0.

  • Full-browser window flash, 100% width/height not working

    Hello.
    I'm pretty sure this issue has been discussed before but I
    couldn't find a suitable answer.
    I need my flash website to fill the whole browser window. In
    the 1st frame of my .fla file I used:
    stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
    stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
    In the Publish Settings, I used 100% width and height and
    Default scale mode.
    I even tried adding CSS styles to the .html file, defining
    padding and margin as 0px and applying them both to the body tag
    and to a custom class that was later applied to the object tag that
    embeds the .swf file on the html.
    Still, the latest versions of Firefox, Safari and Opera (all
    on Mac OSX Leopard) still display a border around the website.
    What can I do? Thanks in advance.

    Thank you for posting.
    I've created a small video to show how to create a 100% width rectangle element. Please refer to the following Link : http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/aish/2013-03-21_1414.swf
    Hope this helps.

  • Mail flash from browser window

    Hello,
    My client, who produce aluminium framed houses, wanted his
    potential customers to be able to do a basic design of their house
    on the website. "No problem," I said! I shall be honest and state
    that I have not used Flash before but spent a whole day going
    through the Tutorials that come with it.
    From this, I have created a page with lots of different sized
    walls which people can drag on a graph paper background to show the
    basic floor plan they would like to build. I now need them to
    complete a form and email this plan to the client.
    Can anyone tell me if one can save the layout from the
    browser window and them mail it and, if so, an idea of how to do
    this.
    Many thanks

  • IView opening in full browser window

    Hi,
    I've created a BSP iView (SAP BSC) at EP 6.0 SP 13, but when I'm navigating on the application, the iView content fits the whole browser window, suppressing the TLN.
    So I have to press Back in my browser to return to the previous page to continue navigating in EP.
    I want the iView to keep in its area.
    Any idea?
    Thanks
    Cezar

    Hi Cezar & Sasi,
    I had gone through above discussion. I had also suffered with that problem. But i got it solved with the help of Navigation Tag Library. For getting it you have to do following thing :
    1.)  Create iView for your application.
    2.)  Then create Page and add created iView to your page.
    3.) Then you have to make changes on your JSP( like detail Navigation or top level navigation wherever u want to add the link for your created page. By importing the par file hope u know it.)
    Ok, it goes like this:
    Make your Portal application Object (component) which calls a JSP in the response. I guess thats simple.
    In your JSP first specify the tag library and its prefix:
    <%@ taglib uri="NavigationTagLibrary" prefix="nav" %>
    Paste this withing the body tags:
    <nav:navNode navTarget="ROLES://portal_content/....(uptill your page id)">
    <nav:navNodeAnchor navigationMethod="byURL"/>
    </nav:navNode>
    In the potalapp.xml:
    <application-config>
    <property name="SharingReference" value="com.sap.portal.navigation.navigationtaglibrary"/>
    </application-config> (...because u are using a service)
    <property name="NavigationTagLibrary" value="/SERVICE/com.sap.portal.navigation.navigationtaglibrary/taglib/TagLibrary.tld"/> (in component profile.. path to tld).
    4.) Now every thing is over just deploy the application and Make an iview of the par and then add that iView by replacing the previous one(like detail navigation or toplevel navigation or masthead).
    ======hope this will solve your problem==========================
    Thanks & regards

  • Open Browser window behavior question

    I have linked files set to open in a 600x700 browser window when an image is clicked. Everything works fine, but when my cursor is over the image, there is no icon (cursor doesn't change to a hand) that indicates a linked file to the user. How can I fix this?
    You can see the page here.

    Add a CSS style for images
    cursor:pointer;

  • Links open in browser window

    I inherited a Help project in RoboHelp 6. I have both
    context-sensitive topics and am developing a total Help system. I
    am frustrated with several "features" of RoboHelp.
    1) I can't figure out how to control how links open. I want
    them all to open in a small Help window, so when a user clicks a
    link, it opens in the same Help window. Instead, many of my links
    are opening in a full browser window. How do I control this?
    2) When I edit code in their supposedly "TrueCode" mode, my
    changes do not "take" -- instead RoboHelp shows something else, and
    this happens even when I edit the file in another editor. I hate
    this!!! (One example: to try to fix the window-opening problem, I
    tried adding Target="Self" to links, but RoboHelp removes the quote
    marks)
    3) Why no Back button? I saw the item about adding a back
    button with JavaScript and will try it. I find the lack of a Back
    button annoying in RoboHelp's own Help, which IMHO is not well
    organized or well-written (am I the last person on earth to
    understand that "display" is a transitive verb? Or that you don't
    open a "dialog" but rather a "dialog box?"

    I really do appreciate your help, and I want to apologize for
    offending anyone. I think my antipathy to RoboHelp began years ago
    with a totally different version, plus, with my current project, I
    came in behind someone else who recommended the company buy
    RoboHelp (at a cost of $1000), started the Help and had very little
    done before she quit and they hired me. My work involves more than
    doing this Help system, but I wish I could have been here to review
    and recommend tools... and maybe I would have ended up with
    RoboHelp anyhow. I don't want to waste the company's $1000
    investment, so I just have to master this tool, even if I do have a
    laundry list of complaints about it.
    Your comments were considerably more helpful to me than the
    RoboHelp Help. I now realize that 1) RoboHelp talks about "frames"
    because a full help window (with TOC) actually uses frames, and 2)
    what I want to do may not be possible.
    Here is what is happening. Our application is not
    Windows-based, but rather uses "portlets" -- a "page" in the
    application may have 7 or 8 portlets that load independently (the
    user can configure his page to have the portlets he wants). The
    user can right-click a portlet to get a menu of options that
    includes "Help." When the user clicks this Help option, he gets a
    small single-topic window, without frames or TOC. The Help file is
    given the same name as the portlet. This is the instruction I got
    from the developers, who showed me how to find the portlet name.
    This is all working just fine.
    Here's the problem: I have links inside those single-topic
    windows. When you click a link inside these windows (the
    context-sensitive help associated with the portlets), the link
    opens a full browser window. The small window with the portlet Help
    remains. The new window does not replace the old window. What I
    intended (and was trying to make happen with those RoboHelp choices
    from "Display in frame" in the Hyperlink window) was for the link
    to replace the previous window -- to appear in the small
    single-topic window.
    When I preview a topic, the links DO open in the same size
    window, but maybe that is not surprising. The application may act
    differently. If RoboHelp can only control how a link behaves when
    the link is in a full (with frames) Help window, then maybe none of
    the "Display in frame" choices will make any difference. Is it
    possible that I just can't have any links in a context-sensitive
    window? Or is this something the developers could change by
    specifiying that windows replace windows?
    Can you see how it seemed to me that I could fix how the
    links should behave in the HTML? It certainly seems logical that a
    simple "target="self" would work, and I did not know why RoboHelp
    was changing the code. Was it to insure that the code would NOT
    work (as in "commenting out" lines of code?) RoboHelp Help is not
    big on explaining what its features are actually doing.
    If I cannot have links inside a context-sensitive,
    single-topic small window, then I need to rethink the design of my
    Help system. The developers gave this very little thought and
    seemed to think the context-sensitive help would be enough to guide
    the users, but I can see that it is not enough. We DO need a full
    (with TOC) Help system, as not all features are just a portlet.
    Some features involve tabbed pages that have no "Help" link. This
    is a very complex EMR (Electronic Medical Records) system, with a
    lot of features that need explaining... So, at present, I am mixing
    the two kinds of Help -- context-sensitive and full Help, with TOC.
    The developers automatically add "Help" to all right-click menus,
    so they are working on a concept of context-sensitive Help. I can
    create a file for all those "help" menu items, but the help will
    not be as helpful as I'd like if I can't put links to related
    topics inside the window.
    I have not tried RoboHelp's "related" button feature because
    I prefer to just put the links in the window than have users do the
    extra step of clicking a button, but I could try that if the
    "related topics" pop-up would give me links that would open inside
    the small window. It just does not seem acceptable ot me to hav
    Help windows going outside the system to a full browser window that
    leaves the previous window open.
    Regarding the question about whether the project files and
    output files are the same -- the output file is clearly different,
    but both use the target=_self format. I don't know if we're using
    the RH CSH interface. I will try to get more information from the
    developers as to whether they have somehow set these windows to
    work this way.
    Regarding creating a new "Window" defintion--- I did look
    into that, and you can specify a "one pane" window, but I don't
    want a Help topic to be confined to one pane. The same topic that
    is a context-senstive topic also appears in the TOC, sowhen the
    user is accessing it from the full Help, the topic should open in
    the right pane, like every other topic accessed this way. The
    "window" definition does let you set a window size and choose to
    make it resizable or not. But it is not this "window" feature that
    is controlling the context-sensitive windows, since they are not
    set to a separate "window" definition, so it is not clear that this
    strategy would actually work.
    Have I explained the problem better? My purpose is to create
    useful and helpful Help. RoboHelp is the tool I've been given to do
    it, and I am not experienced with this tool. If anyone can tell me
    if I can get those links to open in the same window as the previous
    single-topic small window, I would be most grateful. Otherwise, I
    may have to rethink my whole design.
    Again, I am sorry if I was overly critical and offended
    anyone.

  • Open browser window - not working right in different browsers

    My client wants to link to a video on another company's site (he has permission). When I use the DW behavior of Open Browser Window in a specifc size it acts weird, depending on which broswer is used. I've used this function many times over the years and never had this problem until now.
    Here is the page: http://www.jesseyoung.com/clients/pristine/services/chimney_sweeps.shtml If you click on the blue graphic "Chimney safety institute of America" it is supposed to open in a 620x460 window. But the client says that sometimes it opens a second full browser window of the site, and also a window with the video, which is not sized properly. It happens with Safari and Firefox, on both is Mac and PC. On my PC it all seems to work fine.
    Any suggestions? Could this be something to do with the fact that the video is hosted on someone else's site?

  • Opening Browser Window from Hotspot without Browser Toolbars, etc

    Hi Guys
    Can you help please.
    I have a map with some ponds. I've made hotspots for these ponds to open separate pages with some images and info but I really don't need the page to display the toolbars and favorites, etc. I have gone into behaviors and set them to open the browser as I want when I click on the hotspot. Fine. The trouble is it also opens a full browser window as well! Can anyone point me to hoe and where I can set the behaviors so I get only one browser window, without the toolbars, etc?
    Thanks & regards,

  • Open new browser window without bookmark

    when i open a new browser window (from a bookmark or using cnt N) it opens with the list of my bookmarks along the left side of the screen forcing me to x out of the bookmark list so i can have a full browser window page.
    how can i get new pages to open without the list of bookmarks on the left side of the screen?
    thanks,

    You can create a javascript to window.open having toobar, menubar or statusbar=0. The page content can be customized per need. Call this javascript from a link or button click using javascript:popup_window();
    For example,
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    function popup_window()
    w = window.open("", "Window", "width=320,height=400,status=0,toolbar=0,menubar=0");
    w.document.write('<html><head><title>Help Window</title>');
    w.document.write('</head><body>');
    w.document.write('<div><font face="Arial" size="2">This is help page.');
    w.document.write('</font></div><p>');
    w.document.write('<div><font face="Arial" size="1"><a href="javascript:window.close();">Close This Window</a></font></div><p>');
    w.document.write('</body></html>');

  • Taskflow region page full browser stretch

    how can i display contents of a page built using dropping a task flow as region on page in full browser window. how can i stretch the region to be displayed in full browser.

    http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/docs/tagdoc/af_panelStretchLayout.html
    "If you try to put a component inside of this component and that child component does not support being stretched, then the component hierarchy is illegal. To make it legal, you need to insert another intermediate component between >this component and the child component. This intermediate component must support being stretched and must not stretch its children. An example of such a component that is commonly used for this purpose is <af:panelGroupLayout >layout="scroll">. By using a wrapper like this, you create a flowing layout area where nothing will be stretched inside of it. Examples of components that do not support being stretched inside of these panelStretchLayout facets (and >therefore need to be wrapped) include:
    <af:panelBorderLayout>
    *<af:panelFormLayout>*
    <af:panelGroupLayout layout="default">
    <af:panelGroupLayout layout="horizontal">
    <af:panelLabelAndMessage>

  • Filling up Browser window with color in IWeb

    The default IWeb page does not fill the screen and the background color does not overlap the borders to fill the screen in a browser. In other words if your page has a brown background/border it does not bleed over to fill the full browser window when viewed on the web.
    I have seen some examples of IWeb sites that manage to do this though. Can anyone explain how to extend the background color of your page to fill the full screen in a browser?

    Go to the Page inspector Layout window and choose a Browser Background the same as your Page Background.

  • Proportionaly scaling down background image when restoring down browser window

    Hi all, i need some help, i want to minimize(scale or restore down) window to not-fullscreen browser window (and ajusting size of window manually over arrows in the corners of the window) and retain background picture full size (i need to picture proportionally follows screen scaling).
    I`m new into flash stuff, so please tell me if it is the code or what, and if you know part of code that will do the job, write me down!
    Thanks!

    I take it you want a liquid effect.  I wrote a site that does that or rather the background of this site does that http://www.droolpigs.com/ .  It's fairly simple just tell the backrgound to change width and height on stage resize.
        public class NuPigs2 extends MovieClip
            var holder:btnHolder; // container for nav buttons
            var onStage:*;     // this can be anything
            var ratio:Number;
            var rRatio:Number;
            var newRatio:Number;
            var com:FLVPlayback;
            var bkg:*;
            public function NuPigs2(){
                com = new FLVPlayback();
                setCom("droolPigsWrestling.flv");                     // set the video for player com
                addChildAt(com, 0);
                stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
                stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;    // this is needed for resizing to work
                onStage = com;                                                   //  the video player is assigned to onStage
                ratio = onStage.height/onStage.width;
                rRatio = onStage.width/onStage.height;
                addHolder();
                fillBG();
                stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, fillBG);
    ////////////////////// FILL BG ////////////////////////   
    // this code makes the video resize with the stage
            function fillBG(evt:Event = null):void {
                newRatio = this.stage.stageHeight/this.stage.stageWidth;
                holder.x = this.stage.stageWidth - (holder.width +25);    // position the buttons on the right
                holder.y = 50;
                if (newRatio > ratio){
                     onStage.height = this.stage.stageHeight;
                     onStage.width = (this.stage.stageHeight * rRatio);
                    else {
                      onStage.width = this.stage.stageWidth;
                      onStage.height = this.stage.stageWidth * ratio;
