Loadmovie sizing problems
when I cal the swf's I place them into a movie clip that's
the same size (pixel X pixel) as the blank movie clip I'm using.
When they get called into the clip though, they go full size,
it's rather strange. I need to know how to keep them at their
original size, or to get them to stay to the size of the blank
movie clip. Either way's fine, as the swf's I need to load and the
blank clip are same size.
Any help would be sweet....

how come when i set up a title in live type using the animated live fonts, the size comes out too small (and different from how i set it in live type) when its fully rendered and in my movie?
You're doing something wrong at the import stage.
If you have not altered the default project and rendering settings in LT, the movie will be normal sized and using the Animation codec.
You do not need to render the movie in LT, try importing the .ipr project file directly to your timeline. If it's still the wrong size, you deliberately have changed your default project size. Put it back how it's supposed to be. See the manual, it's complicated.

Q10 Screen Sizing Problem in Blackberry 10.3
Has anyone else noticed that there seems to be a screen sizing problem in Blackberry 10.3.
When you wake the screeen with a gesture or pull the handset from the Q10 pocket, the screen that it "wakes" up to is enlarged, requiring the user to use the finger gestures to shrink it down to regular size.
Or have I just not mastered 10.3 yet?

Solved!
Go to Solution.Hi Folks,
I've sussed this one out!
It is not a problem with the screen resolution or the software update, I had within the accessibility settings the "Magnify Mode" enabled.
Disable this and the screen behaves perfectly..........
False Alarm. Sorry!

I am running several reports to produce PDFs that have an interesting behavior. When I publish a report out to our reports server, text in a text box is showing up at or near the top of the box that contains it. This report output does not look very good. On my desktop environment, when I run the report it produces a PDF with no sizing issues.
I have read in several places that this might be a postscipt printer issue. So, I switched the printer on the report server machine to a postscript printer but it did not fix the problem. The font that I am using is Arial as that is the standard font that the client uses. The report server is 6. Any recommendations are appreciated.
Thanks,
GregGreg,
This is probably that server is not using the printer fonts for formatting and uses the system fonts.
Please ensure you use the same printer / similar driver for both the desktop and server to see the effect.
Also, the server if you run as service, by default it runs in the system login and the defaukt printer wouldn't be accessible. Please go to the services properties and ensure the login account has admin privilages to access the printer
Thanks

Compressor 2 Quicktime to iPod Sizing Problem
Hello,
As a podcaster, I have to convert regular quicktime files into iPod-compatible m4v format all the time. Usually I use Quicktime Pro to do this - its simple and I havent had any problems with it. But I'm looking for ways to reduce my file sizes, so I was looking into using Compressor for this.
I used the new H.264 iPod video setting, but got an unsatifactory result that mystifies me:
720x480 quicktime file, when converted via Quicktime Pro's iPod conversion, becomes 320x213 and looks fine.
The same file, when run through Compressor's iPod setting, goes to 320x240, BUT it looks stretched vertically.
Any ideas why this might be happening?
Thanks,
SimonActually, 320x240 is the correct aspect ratio for playback on a computer display. NTSC TV is a 4:3 aspect ratio so the correct viewing format for your 720x480 clip is actually 640x480 (note that the latter is a 4:3 ratio). This confusion results from the fact that NTSC TV displays use rectangular pixels while computer display pixels are usually square. Thus, in order to get the correct aspect ratio during playback on a computer's square pixels you need to set the video to 640x480 or 320x240. However, if you plan on viewing the output on a NTSC TV then either 720x480 or 320x213 are acceptable since both of those will result in a 4:3 viewing ratio during full screen playback on the TV (the conversion happens "auto-magically" -- in effect -- since a standard definition TV has a 4:3 aspect ratio).
Note further that the iPod video display is 320x240 (also 4:3) so I'd suspect that the best quality playback on the iPod would be obtained with a similar sized movie. -
I Have a photo gallery that uses XML to get its thumbnails
and Images. It works perfectly on its own. But what i want to do is
embed it in another .SWF When I do this:
quote:
loadMovie("photos_04.swf", _root.holder);
the SWF photos_04.swf loads, but not with 100% functionality.
for example my buttons don't work but the first image loads.
Example1(standalone):
http://www.zvision.net/pg/photos_04.swf
Example2(embeded):
http://www.zvision.net/pg/container_04.swf
Please notice how the
icon buttons on the button do not link in the
container_04.swf, yet they do in the photo_04.swfHere is the code for the loaded swf;
The _lockroot is applied to the loader movie clip

I am trying to load an swf file that contains a button or
just a movieclip that contain a button. When I put a movieclip on
the stage I can't find a way for the buttons in the movieclip to
work. I am working in actionscript 2. Any help will be greatly
appreciated.
ThankI solved the problem. It had to do with the _root
btn_test.onRelease = function(): Void {
loadMovie("circle.swf","_root.projects_all_mc.loader_focus");
this._lockroot = true;
I put this code in the base movie clip and then the movie
clip was loader into another movie clip...Honestly I have no idea
how I figured it out! It works, just very confusing dealing with
nested movie clips. -
How to fix a DataGrid headercolumn's headerText causing sizing problems
Hello,
I have a datagrid with filter textboxes underneath the header columns.
My problem is that some of the headerText is rather large (in 2 of my columns), and causes it to wrap and stretch the header's height, which ultimately causes the columns to match up strangely and not in uniform.
Here is a screenshot of the problem:
http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/2283/gridcolumnsizeproblem.png
How can I make all column headings uniform in size, with my filtering text boxes? I do not see a height property. I have tried to add extra spaces in the smaller column headings but that does nothing as I think FLEX parses that out. Can I specifically size these so they match the longer ones?
Keep in mind, this DataGrid uses a custom renderer.
Here is my grid definition/MXML:
<dataGridFilters:FilterDatagrid id="dg" width="100%" height="100%" rowCount="5" dataProvider="{deviceDataColl}" click="dg_clickHandler(event)" >
<dataGridFilters:columns>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="name" headerText="Name" width="150"/>
<!--<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="deviceType" headerText="Device Type" textAlign="right"/>-->
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="tHeat" headerText="Heat Point" width="75" textAlign="right"/>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="tCool" headerText="Cool Point" width="75" textAlign="right"/>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="tIndoor" headerText="Indoor Temp" width="80" textAlign="right"/>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="tOutdoor" headerText="Outdoor Temp" width="90" textAlign="right"/>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="insideHumidity" headerText="Indoor Humidity" width="100" textAlign="right"/>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="currentFState" headerText="Fan State" width="75" textAlign="right"/>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="currentFMode" headerText="Fan Mode" width="75" textAlign="right"/>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="currentTState" headerText="State" width="75" textAlign="right"/>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="currentTMode" headerText="Mode" width="75" textAlign="right"/>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="nextSchedCPTDate" headerWordWrap="false" headerText="Next Scheduled Control Point Transition Date" width="100" textAlign="right"/>
<!--<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="nextSchedCPTTime" headerText="Next Scheduled Control Point Transition Time" width="100" textAlign="right"/>-->
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="nextSchedCPTTemp" headerWordWrap="false" headerText="Next Scheduled Control Point Transition Temp" width="100" textAlign="right"/>
<dataGridFilters:DataGridFilterColumn dataField="groupOne" headerText="Group 1" width="75" textAlign="right"/>

</dataGridFilters:columns>

Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
DevtronRootsounds,
Here is my headerRenderer class:
package filters.header
import mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridHeader;
import mx.core.mx_internal;
use namespace mx_internal;
public class DataGridFilterHeader extends DataGridHeader
public function DataGridFilterHeader()
super();
*re-position the sort icon
override protected function placeSortArrow():void
super.placeSortArrow();
if(sortArrow)
var hh:Number = cachedHeaderHeight;
sortArrow.y = (hh - sortArrow.measuredHeight - 8) > 0 ? 10: 0;
if(sortArrow.visible)
var n:int = headerItems.length;
for (var i:int = 0; i < n; i++)
if(visibleColumns[i].colNum == dataGrid.sortIndex)
headerItems[i].setActualSize(visibleColumns[i].width - sortArrow.measuredWidth + 5, headerItems[i].height);
Here is my dataGrid extender:
package filters
import filters.header.DataGridFilterHeader;
import flash.events.Event;
import mx.collections.ICollectionView;
import mx.controls.DataGrid;
import mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn;
import mx.core.mx_internal;
use namespace mx_internal;
public class FilterDatagrid extends DataGrid
public function FilterDatagrid()
super();
headerClass = DataGridFilterHeader;
addEventListener("filterEvent",onFilterChange);
override public function set dataProvider(value:Object):void
if(dataProvider)
resetFiltres();
super.dataProvider = value;
resetFiltres(filterFunction);
private function onFilterChange(event:Event):void
if(dataProvider)
(dataProvider as ICollectionView).refresh();
selectedIndex = 0;
private function resetFiltres(inFilterFunction:Function = null):void
if(dataProvider)
(dataProvider as ICollectionView).filterFunction = inFilterFunction;
(dataProvider as ICollectionView).refresh();
if(inFilterFunction == null)
var iLen:int= columnCount;
for(var i:int=0;i<iLen;i++)
var dgc:DataGridColumn = columns[i] as DataGridColumn;
if(dgc is DataGridFilterColumn)
DataGridFilterColumn(dgc).filterText = "";
selectedIndex = 0;
private function filterFunction(inObject:Object):Boolean
var iLen:int= columnCount;
for(var i:int=0;i<iLen;i++)
var dgc:DataGridColumn = columns[i] as DataGridColumn;
var dField:String = dgc.dataField;
if(dgc is DataGridFilterColumn == false)
continue;
var srchStr:String = DataGridFilterColumn(dgc).filterText;
if(srchStr == "")
continue;
var dataStr:String = dgc.itemToLabel(inObject);
var regex:RegExp = new RegExp("^"+srchStr, "i");
// if search string exists and
// does not match the data in the row
if(regex.exec(dataStr)==null)
return false;
return true;
If all this wrapper class stuff "Extends" the DataGrid, why wouldnt "headerHeight" be available as an attribute in my MXML/grid? When I try to set it explicitly in my dataGrid MXML, the compiler says "Cannot resolve attribute 'headerHeight'". I guess this doesnt really "extend" it? Im confused. -
Acrobat Pro 9 TextBox Text Sizing problems
I have recently installed Pro9 in my computer, previously I had Ver 6.
Before Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, I could insert a TextBox in any PDF file and format the text right on the spot (i.e. size, color, style).
Now with the new Pro 9, I can not edit the TextBox font. In order to change it I have to go another application and then do the changes there, then cut and paste into the PDF TextBox.
Is anyone else having this problem or is just my application? do you have any suggestions?
ThanksHi ,
This seems to be an issue specific to the file you are using . Does it happen for any file with tables ?
If possible can you please share the file converting which you encountered such behavior . Please also mention your OS ,version of Acrobat and MSOffice version .
Thanks,

I experiencing a problem with the AS2 (V2) components named
Datagrid and List. Is there a way to resize the using actionscript
just to display more datas instead of scaling or stretching to the
new size but still displaying the same amount of visible data.
See? when change their size in action script, they scale or
stretch, but I want to them to keep their aspect and offer to view
more items at once.
Any help will be appreciatedDon't use _width or _height to change the size if that's what
you're doing.
myGrid.setSize(width, height);
as an example if your Datagrid is called myGrid. -
I am tryying to set the size of JEditorPane using setSize(int w, int h) method, but it isn' working. The pane is rendered as just about a single character height even though I have given higher values (about 500) for height. Any idea what could be wrong?

IPhoto Printing - sizing problems
After many hours of frustration I am about to give up on iPhoto 7.1 printing. The Print Settings dialog does not match the choices of settings or paper sizes of my printer. I enter a custom size [tedious to have to do when it is a standard photo paper size such as "L"], enter, then when I add a border the paper size reverts to A4. If I don't add a border or otherwise customize the picture, then go to "print" on checking the advanced print options the paper size does not match that set in the "Print Settings" dialog. Even if the preview looks right the print size does not match. I called into my local Apple store and tried this at the Genius Bar - they found the same issue on their Mac and after an hour of head scratching they could not figure it out. Any thoughts? This should be dead easy - I am back to adding borders in PS and printing from Aperture; not what I want to do for snapshots.
Daniel:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Can you provide a little more info regarding the paper sizes available, printer type, etc. Not familiar with paper size "\L\". What language is you Mac set up for? What sizes are you trying to print? Are you cropping the images to the paper size selected beforehand?
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file. -
First of all, just let me say I have read everything there is available on layout managers and how pack() and validate() work.
My problem is simply that my JDialog appears far longer than its components, and I can't see why.
I've created screenshots of the desired appearance and the actual appearance:
http://www.komododave.co.uk/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=167
The first 'undesired' screenshot shows what the JDialog looks like upon instantiation. The second shows what it looks like once you manually shrink it in the Y direction by more than about 10 pixels.
I don't understand how the maximum size can exceed the Dimension I set with 'dialog.setMaximumSize(...', since I'm using BoxLayout for the JDialog and that respects a given maximum size.
The constructor creating the JDialog is shown here:
public AbstractSelectionDialog(Vector<String> argVector, String title,
String message) {
Vector<String> vector = argVector;
// create new modal JDialog
final JDialog dialog = new JDialog(Silk.getFrame(), title, true);
// set boxlayout for dialog frame
dialog.getContentPane().setLayout(new BoxLayout(dialog.getContentPane(),
BoxLayout.Y_AXIS));
// set default close operation
dialog.setDefaultCloseOperation(JDialog.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
// create ButtonGroup to enforce exclusive collection choice
final ButtonGroup buttonGroup = new ButtonGroup();
// initialise other components
// use fake space for label rather than use another HorizontalGlue
JLabel label = new JLabel(" " + message);
// panel containing collection selection
JPanel selectionPanel = new JPanel();
// run initialiser methods
JPanel buttonPanel = (JPanel) createButtons(buttonGroup, dialog);
AbstractButton selection[] = createSelection(vector, buttonGroup,
selectionPanel);
// scrollPane containing collection panel
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(selectionPanel,
JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED,
JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_NEVER);
// panel containing scroll pane
JPanel scrollPanel = new JPanel();
scrollPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(scrollPanel, BoxLayout.X_AXIS));
selectionPanel.setLayout(new GridLayout(vector.size(), 1));
// assemble component structure
scrollPanel.add(Box.createHorizontalGlue());
scrollPanel.add(scrollPane);
scrollPanel.add(Box.createHorizontalGlue());
dialog.add(label);
dialog.add(scrollPanel);
dialog.add(buttonPanel);
// set all components to be left-justified
label.setAlignmentX(0.0F);
scrollPanel.setAlignmentX(0.0F);
selectionPanel.setAlignmentX(0.0F);
buttonPanel.setAlignmentX(0.0F);
// set higher-level component sizes
Silk.setSizeAttributes(label, 300, 30, true);
selectionPanel.setMaximumSize(new Dimension(250, 400));
scrollPane.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(250, 50));
scrollPane.setMaximumSize(new Dimension(250, 400));
dialog.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(300, 200));
dialog.setMaximumSize(new Dimension(300, 500));
dialog.pack();
// set components to be opaque
label.setOpaque(true);
scrollPane.setOpaque(true);
selectionPanel.setOpaque(true);
// display dialog frame
//dialog.setResizable(false);
dialog.setVisible(true);
}The 'createButtons' method it uses is here:
public JPanel createButtons(ButtonGroup bg, JDialog jd) {
final ButtonGroup buttonGroup = bg;
final JDialog dialog = jd;
// confirmation buttons
JButton okBtn = new JButton();
JButton cancelBtn = new JButton();
JButton newBtn = new JButton();
// panel containing OK and CANCEL buttons
JPanel bothPanel = new JPanel();
// panel containing NEW COLLECTION button
JPanel newPanel = new JPanel();
// panel to contain all other button panels
JPanel confPanel = new JPanel();
confPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(confPanel, BoxLayout.X_AXIS));
newPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(newPanel, BoxLayout.X_AXIS));
bothPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(bothPanel, BoxLayout.Y_AXIS));
// definition of button Actions
okBtn.setAction(new AbstractAction() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
Actions.addScript(buttonGroup.getSelection()
.getActionCommand(), null);
dialog.dispose();
cancelBtn.setAction(new AbstractAction() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
dialog.dispose();
newBtn.setAction(new AbstractAction() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
dialog.dispose();
new Actions.NewCollectionAction().actionPerformed(ae);
new Actions.NewScriptAction().actionPerformed(ae);
// override action-set button text
okBtn.setText("Ok");
cancelBtn.setText("Cancel");
newBtn.setText("Add New Collection");
// set button sizes
Silk.setSizeAttributes(okBtn, 115, 30, true);
Silk.setSizeAttributes(cancelBtn, 115, 30, true);
Silk.setSizeAttributes(newBtn, 250, 35, true);
// set opaque buttons
confPanel.setOpaque(true);
okBtn.setOpaque(true);
cancelBtn.setOpaque(true);
// assemble components
confPanel.add(Box.createHorizontalGlue());
confPanel.add(okBtn);
confPanel.add(Box.createRigidArea(new Dimension(20, 0)));
confPanel.add(cancelBtn);
confPanel.add(Box.createHorizontalGlue());
newPanel.add(Box.createHorizontalGlue());
newPanel.add(newBtn);
newPanel.add(Box.createHorizontalGlue());
bothPanel.add(Box.createRigidArea(new Dimension(0, 10)));
bothPanel.add(confPanel);
bothPanel.add(Box.createRigidArea(new Dimension(0, 5)));
bothPanel.add(newPanel);
bothPanel.add(Box.createRigidArea(new Dimension(0, 10)));
bothPanel.setMaximumSize(new Dimension(300, 100));
return bothPanel;
}And the createSelection() method it uses is defined here:
public AbstractButton[] createSelection(Vector<String> argVector,
ButtonGroup buttonGroup, JPanel selectionPanel) {
Vector<String> vector = argVector;
JRadioButton selection[] = new JRadioButton[vector.size()];
for (int i = 0; i < vector.size(); i++)
selection[i] = new JRadioButton(vector.get(i));
AbstractButton current;
for (byte i = 0; i < selection.length; i++) {
current = selection;
// set action command string to later identify button that's
// selected
current.setActionCommand(vector.get(i));
// fix button's size
Silk.setSizeAttributes(current, 250, 30, true);
// set button's colour
current.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
// add button to buttongroup
buttonGroup.add(current);
// add button to appropriate JPanel
selectionPanel.add(current);
// ensure one button is selected to prevent pressing OK with no
// selection
selection[0].setSelected(true);
return selection;
Please help if you can.
Thank you.

I considered that the GridLayout might be a problem, but surely the fact that it's ultimately contained in a BoxLayout (which [i]does respect maximum size) means the maximum size still shouldn't be exceedable?

Photoshop to illustrator sizing problem
Hello All,
This should be fairly simple, but I haven't had this problem before. I have a photo that I need to increase the size of the canvass and add a black vignette around, then update this file in illustrator where it is placed. Every time I change the canvas size in photoshop and update in illustrator the photoshop image shrinks instead of getting bigger (I have not changed the dpi or anything else except the canvas size). I've adjusted many images in photoshop and brought them into illustrator with no problem. This is very strange....anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
HYou can scale an image to whatever size you want in Illustrator. If you take an 8x10 image and scale it down 50%, no matter what you do with the image in photoshop, the graphic element in illustrator will stay as a 4x5 dimension. It's not often one would want the parameters they have designed in one piece of software to be affected by what they do to the elements in another piece of software!
Instead of simply updating the link to the image that is already placed in illustrator, you should place the image again (File-Place), and it will come in at 100% of it's (new) size, same as any other image. -
I am new to editing so I am probably doing something really wrong, and I need some help.
I am editing in FCE and my sequence preset is set to DV NTSC 32 kHz Anamorphic. I'm exporting using QuickTimeConversion H.264 and the size is set to NTSC 720x480 16:9. The final export looks perfect when I view it on my desktop.
I then upload the file to my server, and type in the direct path, which is here:
http://www.landonsea.com/download/Visa_China3.mov and when I view the video at the link above, it looks perfect on my end.
Problem: When other people view the video, the aspect ratio is different for them. Everyone else seems to see it much narrower then I am seeing it. Thus squishing the logo that is on the title screen.
Is this because I'm just uploading the .mov straight to the web? What better way would there be to post my videos after exporting for clients to view?
Problem #2: The size of the video after I export seems to be different then 720480. It's more like 854x457. Why is this?I just realized something - The size as to which people are viewing the video is correct (720x480). But when I view the video, it's at 854x457. Why would this be???

ITunes Window Re-Sizing Problem!!
Just curious if anyone can help out...
So I recently made the switch from an iMac to a MacBook Pro and transferred all my files/setting/etc. from the iMac to the laptop...
Only problem is with iTunes!! When I open up the program the window seems to be formatted for my 24" iMac and I can't resize it since the lower right corner (where I'd normally use to re-size) is off the screen!!
Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!Figured it out...
If anyone is wondering...hold down the 'Option' key and click on the Green button...it automatically optimizes the window sizes.
