Scaling Width but Not Height?

Hi
I am working on a chart for a hotel in Flash CS3 / AS 3.0. I
have created a
movie clip inside my main movie that I want to replicate to
"fill in" the
chart. What I want to do is scale the background of the clip
to expand
across the number of days for a reservation. However, when I
scale the clip
it scales both the width AND height. I don't want to make the
height taller.
How can I prevent the scaling of the height?
Thanks
Rich

Hi --
What I have my code doing is changing the width of the clip.
I will look
into the "xscale" or equivilent.
Thanks
Rich

Scaling .swf but not tooltips

Hi,
I have a flash file that I am scaling. There are buttons in the file that have tooltips that pop up when you roll over them.
Problem is, the tooltips scale with the .swf file so they get huge and are not in the right spot over the button anymore.
Is there anyway around this so the tooltips will maintain a size without being scaled?
Thanks!

Actually I am using the one from afcomponents as well, got mixed up. I haven't had to worry about scaling since I've only used them in web projects not allowing scaling. But I did try a quick experiment running the project local and going full screen - the tip did scale, but did it well and displayed in the correct place. Everything pretty much at the default settings.
Do you have a link to see what yours are doing?

Find... has Icon Scaling bar, but not the regular Finder window?

Hi,
Why is it that the Find... window in Finder has a bar that enables you to scale the size of Icons, but the regular Finder window doesn't?
Also, why is the typical Icon Size in Icon View limited to 128 x 128 pixels? When you're in one of the Find... windows, you can scale any icon all the way up to approximately 428 x 428 pixels, completely fluidly, all in real-time.

Probably so you can make them smaller if there are a large number of search results without having to permanently change you default configuration. I can surely see a need for this if you normally view search results in icon view (personally, I don't). But I wouldn't want to then have that change reflected system-wide.

Problems scaling width of movieclip with Tween class

In my app I'm scaling the width of a movieclip using the
Tween class.
My problem is that the new scaled width is not right.
Is this a bug in the as3 code? Does anyone have a solution?
trace(graphPanel.width) // 500
scaleValue = 5;
new Tween(graphPanel, "scaleX", None.easeNone, 1, scaleValue,
2,
true);
trace(graphPanel.width) // 2494.25

Sounds like you need to scale the star object inside of the star_mc. So you just need to make the star into a sprite/movie clip (how ever you want ot do it) then target that with the scaleX & scaleY, something like,
star_mc.star.scaleX = star_mc.star.scaleY = 1.5;

Scaling mobile app works fine on the X but not on the Y

I originally made my app to work for iphone only but I am now scaling it to work on Ipad/ Android etc. I am doing all the scaling manually. It is a tabbed application.
I am scaling all x and y locations and widths and heights by a scale factor that is created using..
scaleFactorX = stage.width/320;
scaleFactorY = stage.height/480;
It works perfectly on the x but not quite enough on the y as objects look a little squashed vertically.
I can't think why this is. If I were to alter the y scalefactor it would put things out when at the original phone size.
The only part I'm not scaling manually is the actionBar and the bottom tabs. They are currently using default skins which use the DPI classification to determined size. I have however overridden this and set the action bar to use a skin with a much greater layoutContentGroupHeight. This hasn't however had any effect on the y scaling of objects in the main display area.
The y scale isn't out by much, but it bothers me. If anyone has any suggestions I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

Panel Width Stays Fixed in 64-Bit but not 32-Bit

Hello all,
I've recently installed Configurator 1.0 and created my first
panel as a collection of menu commands and tools I most often use.
The panel is 800x130 (HxW) pixels. I'm running Vista 64 Ultimate
with PS CS4 32-bit & 64-bit installed, and have observed that
with the panel exported to both versions of PS, it will open in
each at a 214-pixel width as the application initializes, but then
very quickly resize to the 130-pixel width I defined. However,
while consistently true for 64-Bit PS, that is not the case for
32-Bit, where the panel commonly remains at the 214-pixel width as
often as not. This does not seem to be affected by whether the
panel is docked or undocked, or whether I've resaved a workspace or
even created a new one with the panel active. I'm not certain of
this, but it seems that if I close the panel in 32-bit PS before
closing the application, then it is more likely that if I reopen
the application and then enable the panel, it will initialize to
the correct size. Oh, and when it is at the 214-pixel width, I
cannot resize it manually. Similarly, when the panel is reopened
for editing in Configurator, it always opens at the correct
130-pixel width.
Note that the panels for each version of PS were separately
exported to the respective Plug-ins/Panels folder and I even tried
replacing the folder under the 32-bit PS with a hard link
(junction) to the Panels folder in the 64-bit PS. That made no
difference in the observed behavior other than that it does allow
one exported panel location to serve both applications. I tried the
same with a shortcut in lieu of of a junction, but that didn't seem
to work insofar as the Panels extensions being loaded.
Has anyone seen such behavior as this? It is really no more
than a nuisance, but I'd like to avoid it if possible.
Thanks,
Daryl

Since the Configurator doesn't include a compiler, so the flash panel generated by it doesn't have a native height and width.
So the height and width you assigned in the Configurator is saved into the .gpc file.
You observation is very sharp and accurate, when a panel is opened first time in the Photoshop.
It will show the panel in the default size first, then it will load the height and width you assigned from the .gpc file, and resize it to the size you want.
And then when you close the panel, it will save the current panel size to a flash player share object.
The next time when you open the panel, it will load the last time saved size back.

Print the report on page has width larger than height and not landscape mode

Hi,
I'm trying to print report on page (Width: 18cm, Height: 13cm) which the width larger than the height.
The problem is windows keeps changing the page oreintation to landscape and when I change it back to portrait its changing the width to 13cm and height to 18cm.
I'm using dot matrix printer to print the report, if i put Landscape , printer is printing the text in horizontal.
Already i have tried to setup the custom for on printer, and used custom page size but it is changing to landscape.
I need to print the report with out preview, direct print top printer, NO PDF....
Thank you .....

Hi Anil,
After testing the issue in my environment, I can reproduce it. When I set (Width: 18cm, Height: 13cm) as the Report Page size, it would automatically convert Orientation from Portrait to Landscape. Because the Orientation displayed is dependent on the page
width and page height of the report.
But in my scenario, the Orientation option just change the Width and Height sizes, it couldn’t affect the text rotation. I guess this issue can be caused by the printer and printer driver, please try to update them. Reference:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15244336/printing-in-landscape-or-portrait-automatically-rotates-text-ssrs?lq=1
Hope this helps.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

I am trying to print out information on a Google Maps page. I have the print setting on fit to width but the page does not print that way and some of the page that would normally show on page 2 is missing.

The page prints out fine on Internet Explorer, but not on Firefox. 2 pages are supposed to print out but only 1 prints. Also it does not fit to width even though that's the setting.

That file could be set as a Launch Agent or Daemon in your ~/Library or /Library, You could try to look for it or Safeboot your computer and then empty the trash. Safebooting disables Launch Agents/Daemon and Third Party Kernal extensions. Here's the article to Safeboot OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? - Apple Support

Dreamweaver: How do I ensure my video is always the full browser width, but a fixed height?

I don't care if the video crops vertically or horizontally, but I want to it be responsive to the full browser width, yet a fixed height (400px or so). Like this: http://www.anthonydesigner.com/
Thank you kindly.

Apply style rules as in
video {
position: fixed;

right: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
min-width: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
width: auto;

Welcome to the forum Oreckel!
The best way to work with FCP's media files is to not overthink it. It's all done from the "Scratch Disk" settings. Just select a DRIVE for media captures and renders to go to. FCP handles the rest. It creates a folder called "Capture Scratch", another called "Renders" and a third called "Audio Renders". In each of these folders it creates a folder for each project file containing the media that is associated with that particular project, and it names these folders the same as your project files' names. Couldn't be easier.
Autosave Vaults, Waveforms, and Thumbnails should be kept on your startup disk in your documents folder. You probably already have one there named "Final Cut Pro Documents" If it's there just select the Documents folder and FCP will put these three folders in the one named "Final Cut Pro Documents".

Best Method for Strechable .swf file in horizontal but not vertical?

What is the best method to create an easy to use flash file
that will allow horizontal scaling with a fixed vertical size?
This will be for a blog header in a variable width design at
Make Light Real.com
I have tried the basic stage properties and found
StageScaleMode.NO_BORDER to be an ok solution, but I'm not
sure what will happen when I begin to drop active clips in on the
stage. Will the stage operate from a fixed point or how will the
clips orient to the stage as it expands?
My understanding of actionscript is just enough to hack
pieces of what I need together: but if you could enlighten me with
the most basic understanding of which method would work best for me
I'd apprecate it. I also have this method to alter the background
(as a clip):
quote:
Stage.addListener(ecout);
// function which replaces all the elements with the new
values
slide = function () {
photo_mc._x = 0;
photo_mc._y = 0;
photo_mc._width = Stage.width;
photo_mc._height = Stage.width/rapp;
if (photo_mc._height<Stage.height) {
photo_mc._height = Stage.height;
photo_mc._width = Stage.height*rapp;
slide()
Should I just alter the variables there to lock the stage
height?
Thanks for your time in answering.

When you export your movie you can select the scaling options
for width and height.
Try selecting one but not the other.
Cheers,
Gorka

SWF at 100 % width and proportional height

I have a SWF that I would like to use in an XHTML 1.0 Strict document.
My need is that the flash must:
- Be 100% width
- Grow / shrink proportionally in height (depending on width)
- The flash may not be cropped or distorted
- I must be able to to put a div just before the flash
- I must be able to place a div right after the flash
The flash should behave just as if you pasted below image in an HTML file:
<img
style ="
width: 100%;
min-width:800px;
min-height:280px;
height: auto; "src="xxxx"
alt ="-"/>
I need it to show a dias show (SWF), where the size changes with the browser window size.
If some someone can help, I would be very happy :-)

Here is an older post that has examples of various scaling:
Here are examples of different scaling parameters available in the Publish settings. You can also add these parameters directly in the html (<param name="scale" value="noscale"). All the examples replace the actual Flash dimensions with 100% for both width and height (width="100%" height="100%"). These examples use the old <object> and <embed> to illustrate the different ways to scale Flash. Once you understand how it works I’d recommend that you use swfobject to place the Flash in your final project.
View the source code for each page to see the full code.
http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/tutorials/scale/exact_fit.html
"exactFit" scales the file to fit exactly within the confines of the screen, irregardless if the movie becomes consequently distorted. The original aspect ratio is not maintained. So round things are not round and squares are not square.
http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/tutorials/scale/noScale.html
"noScale" is the default setting, and causes the movie to be displayed at the originally designed dimensions.
http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/tutorials/scale/no_border.html
"noBorder" causes the movie to be scaled to what ever dimensions are needed to have no border surrounding the movie within the player, which consequently could result in some of the movie being cut off from view. In other words, the movie will maintain the original aspect ratio and will fill the screen completely. But if the movie has to be streched wider to fill both sides of the screen, it will also stretch taller, but then some of the top and the bottom of the movie may be cut off from view.
http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/tutorials/scale/show_all.html
"showAll" scales the movie to the size of the screen (which could cause pixelation if the file contains raster information), the difference between showAll and exactFit is that showAll mantains initial movie size proportions. Because it maintains the original aspect ratio, there can be space to the sides or the top and bottom. But everything always shows and they are not distorted. But notice the photo in the center, it becomes pixilated at larger screen resolutions.
The trickiest part of trying to go full screen is that it’s difficult to make the Flash wider without making it taller also, that is, to maintain the correct proportions or aspect ratio of everything on the stage. These methods are just simple scaling accomplished with html. There are also methods to dynamically scale the stage and it’s elements using Actionscript… but that’s a much more complex undertaking.
Best wishes,

I know i am really sorry the page is only a mock up so i dont have a link i could send you.
If you have an email address i could email you the files as they are only small.
If it helps to understand i have 2 screen shots below of how it looks in IE7 & IE8.
Thank you very much for your help.
IE7
IE8 - The left and right green headings are not there and the bottam banner has moved up to the top?

Images Viewable in Firefox But Not In Explorer, Safari, Chrome.

I have a coldfusion page with images. The images are called up dynamically from my Mysql database. The image field with my database has the datatype "char(100)". All that is stored in that database field is the file path to the folder of which the image is stored which is: \photos\RSL\1.jpg.
On my webpage, the image placeholder looks like this:
<a href="#Unit_Info.comphoto1#"><img src="#Unit_Info.comphoto1#" alt="" name="1" width="98" height="73" /></a>
This images display just fine on Firefox, But Not In Explorer, Safari, & Chrome. These latter three just show a broken image. Could there be something wrong with either my coldfuson or Mysql file path where each of the letter three browsers are trying to access?
I'm running Coldfusion 9 on my local machine, using OS Window 7 Professional.

When I hard coded the file path it worked. I checked the source code and saw no white space. I even went to each browser's options dialog box to make sure that the show image options were checked. It may be my coding. In my image folder there are categories of other folders within folders that have images of which Coldfusion calls up whenever the browser needs it. Could that be the problem? Should I have all of my 300 images in one folder?

First thing I'd try would be to hard code the expected value and see if that works. If it does, I'd look at the html source code from the problematic browsers and see if there is any unexpected white space.
