Set frame to screen size

hi everyone,
i just have a quick question.
any replies would be GREATLY appreciated...
how do you set the size of a new frame to fit the size of the screen automatically. i have tried set size but it doesn't work when running on computers with different screen sizes...
are there any standard methods for this ?
thanks a bunch

java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize() returns a the screen dimension as
java.awt.Dimension

  • Best practice for setting or detecting screen size?

    Hi All,
    Trying to determine a best practice for setting or detecting the screen size. For playbook and iOS, I can set them. But for Android, the number of devices is too large so I'd rather detect. My first choice is to use the stage.stageHeight and stage.stageWidth. This works fine if I set my stage properties with standard meta data:
    [SWF(height="320", width="480", frameRate="64", backgroundColor="#010101")]
    However, if I use the application descriptor file to set the stage dimentions (as suggested by Christian Cantrell here http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/authoring_for_multiple_screen_sizes.html)
    <initialWindow>
    <aspectRatio>landscape</aspectRatio>
    <autoOrients>false</autoOrients>
    <width>320</width>
    <height>480</height>
    <fullScreen>true</fullScreen>
    </initialWindow>
    Then the stage.stageHeight and stage.stageWidth are not the correct numbers when my main class is added to the stage. Sometime after the main class is added to the stage, then those numbers are fine. Is there an event I can wait for to know that the stage.stageHeight and stage.stageWidth are correct?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Lee,
    Thanks for the quick response! However, for some reason the heightPercent & widthPercent metadata tags are not working as expected for me.
    I have a wrapper class that I target for compiling, WagErgApplePhone.as where I've got my metadata
    [SWF(heightPercent="100%", widthPercent="100%", frameRate="64", backgroundColor="#010101")]
    sets some stage properties
    stage.quality=StageQuality.LOW;
    stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
    stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
    and instantiates my main class
    var main:Main = new Main();
    addChild(main);
    my main class constructor even waits for the stage
    public function Main(){
    if (stage) init();
    else addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
    in my init function, stage.stageHeight traces out as 375 (expecting 320).
    i have a function which is called via a button press event by the user, and stage.stageHeight traces out correctly (320) there. that's what makes me think that if i wait long enough, i can get the correct stageHeight before init/drawing. but i'm not sure what event to listen for, or if there's another trick.
    if i use Capabilities.screenResolutionX and Capabilities.screenResolutionY the correct values are provided for mobile, but these values are not useful for the desktop and web version of the app. if there's no other solution, i'll execute different code depending on platform.
    again, for reference, my app descriptor:
    <initialWindow>
    <aspectRatio>landscape</aspectRatio>
    <autoOrients>false</autoOrients>
    <width>320</width>
    <height>480</height>
    <content>bin-iOS/WagErgApplePhone.swf</content>
    <title>WAG ERG</title>
    <fullScreen>true</fullScreen>
    <renderMode>cpu</renderMode>
    </initialWindow>
    looking forward to any other ideas to try out & thanks so much for your thoughts! if you want to really dig in, this is an opensource project at code.google.com/p/wag-erg/

  • Personas: How set the default screen size when Personas starts up

    Hi Personas experts,
    When Personas starts, its screen size is by default small, say, size_A. One can press "+" to increase the screen size, say, size_B.
    Now I want Personas to start with a bigger screen size, say, size_B instead of the default size, size_A. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks.

    Hi Dong,
    There is a minor tweak you have to do in your index.html file. Or I advise you copy the index.html file into a new file and run personas using it.
    The tweak in the 40th line where you have the script. Just add          switchPersonasObjectFullScreen();
      <script type="text/javascript">
             setPersonasObjectSize(1);
             switchPersonasObjectFullScreen();        <!-- Add this here -->
             trySetPersonasObjectSizeFromUrlParameters();
           disableBrowserHelp();
         </script>
         </body>
    Save . Activate and Run Personas using this file. It will open personas in Full Screen Mode within the browser window.
    I hope this tweak helps.
    Regards,
    Manu

  • How do you set a default screen size for safari windows to open at ?

    Hi guys, I'm running my mac mini through a 50 inch plasma. I really like that safari opens the browser at a size that's just big enough to fit the page you are viewing to; but annoyingly my flatmate keeps changing the window size to full screen. I don't like this and have tried to play around with the settings so that it opesn in a default size every time but have been unable to do so.
    If anyone has any suggestions it'd be greatly apreciated as this seemingly stupid problem is realllllly annoying me.
    Cheers,
    AJ

    Evict your flatmate.

  • How do I set the screen size of my site?

    Hey guys making a site for a friend and I'm not sure on how I go about setting a screen size that can be viewed on varying screen sizes like 1280x800 and up. At the moment on my 1920x1080 display it looks fine but when I open it on her MacBook Pro (1280x800) it is cut of by half and my website has some fixed anchors which I do not allow scrolling so you are kind of stuck.
    Thanks to anyone that can help, can't find a tutorial anywhere

    In the normal state the screen on an iPad will rotate depending on which side is up. Any of the four sides can be up or on top and the display will look correct. But if you want to lock the display in one orientation you can. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to reveal the Control Center. Then tap on the Orientation Lock icon. That's the icon of the small padlock surrounded by a circular arrow. That icon will appear at the top right of the display and the screen will no longer rotate. Repeat the same procedure to unlock orientation.

  • Is there a script to create a button to set an activated frame to document size + bleed?

    Please see my question above. Thanks in advance!

    Here is a script that creates a script that creates a button that sets an activated frame to document size + bleed.
    Why do you need a script to create a button that sets an activated frame to document size + bleed? You might as well have a script that sets an activated frame to document size + bleed, because you already need to double-click the script that sets an activated frame to document size + bleed and so there is no need to show another button that you can click to set an activated frame to document size + bleed in that.
    theScript = 'var w = new Window("dialog", "Reframe");\n'+
    'w.b = w.add("button", undefined, "Click me!");\n'+
    'w.b.onClick = function(){ w.close(3); };\n'+
    'if (w.show() == 3)\n'+
    '{\n'+
    'dp = app.activeDocument.documentPreferences;\n'+
    'app.selection[0].geometricBounds = [\n'+
    'app.layoutWindows[0].activePage.bounds[0]-dp.documentBleedTopOffset,\n'+
    'app.layoutWindows[0].activePage.bounds[1]-dp.documentBleedBottomOffset,\n'+
    'app.layoutWindows[0].activePage.bounds[2]+dp.documentBleedInsideOrLeftOffset,\n'+
    'app.layoutWindows[0].activePage.bounds[3]+dp.documentBleedOutsideOrRightOffset];\n'+
    writeFile = new File (app.activeScript.parent+'/new script.jsx');
    writeFile = writeFile.saveDlg( 'Save script', File.fs == "Windows" ? "Script:*.jsx,All files:*.*" : function(file) { return file instanceof Folder || (!(file.hidden) && file.name.match(/\.jsx$/i)); } );
    if (writeFile != null && writeFile.open("w"))
      writeFile.encoding = "utf8";
      writeFile.write (theScript);
      writeFile.close();

  • How to set width to be same as screen size?

    Dear all
    I want to set the width of my view elements to be same as that of screen size, so that if a user with low resolution monitor runs it, or if a user with high resolution monitor runs it, both see the same.
    I tried setting the width to 100%. But it is not working.
    My root container layout is Grid layout.
    Any suggestions please?
    Thanks in adv.

    Hi,
    For ROOTUIELEMENTCONTAINER set the stretchedHorizontally,stretchedVertically to true.
    And for the UI element set width as 100%, this will make the UI elem to expand to the complete screen.
    Best regards,
    Suresh

  • IPhone app screen size set up in Photoshop

    I'm designing an iPhone app in Photoshop. I want to work in 2X size.
    What size should I set the screen up in Photoshop to be able to export UI images and icons accurately?
    Should I use an iPhone 5 or iPhone 6 screensize?
    These are both 2X png but screensizes are different, therefore UI exported for the @2X size will differ depending on which screensize I first decide to start with.

    If you choose File > New and choose the Mobile App Design preset, you'll find the Size menu already lists most recent iPhone screen sizes including the 6 and 6 Plus.
    Mylenium's link is very helpful; if you go there and go to Icon and Image Sizes there's a table of dimensions for all of those things.
    If you have Photoshop CC 2014, you can set up Generator and Extract Assets to export layers (e.g. button designs) to multiple pixel dimensions automatically. That will be a lot easier and faster than manually sizing/cropping/exporting.

    thanks for checking and letting me know.

  • Set default screen size

    when FFX launches it defaults to a screen size smaller then I'd like for default. Is there a way to change this?
    I run it on an external 24" screen of an MBA running 10.7.5

    Hello metropical,
    Thank you for contacting Mozilla Support. That does sound frustrating. After doing some searching on our support site I've found that if you EXIT Firefox, the window will return to the same position it was in at the START of the last session. If you CLOSE Firefox it will save the position it was in at the END of the last session.
    Please let us know if this solves your problem.
    Cheers,
    Patrick
