fla resize help please!

[luke morris]

Hello,

I have created a fla. movie at 750 x 750 px. I now need this same movie at 300 x 300 px to load on the web. I cannot figure out how to resize a complete fla movie or swf file. I see that you can resize a document in flash 8 but that only resizes the canvas, not the movie inside it. Is there an easy solution to my problem or is it a case of going in and resizing all the symbols individually?

Please help,
Luke

you can simply adjust the parameters of the <embed> tag to fit your needs

[html]
<object width="550" height="400">
<param name="movie" value="somefile name.swf">
<embed src="somefilena me.swf" width="550" height="400">
</embed>
[/html]
</object>

Thankyou for your time in response

... however...I think this will retain the orig file size? e.g. 3 meg ... is there no way I can resize the origional source movie pixels itself by half and effectively half the file size for faster internet viewing?

Thanks again,
Luke

I don't have flash load on this machine, and I'm going to do by memory.
Open your flash project goto file to publish setting. There you will see several tabs. Select the tab flash( i think) there you will see several place you can select how to save your file. Select flash (.swf) next hit the advance settings, there you will be able to resize your output.

I will resent this in the morning, with more details Pacfic time. around 7 am
or you call look up a tread called .swf files from camtasia does not work in NVU . which I explain it in more detail, minus the resizing part.

Sorry about this one.
Open your flash project goto file to publish setting. There you will see several tabs. Select the tab html or Quicktime there you will see a Dimensions setting click on the down button and select percent or Pixels this will allow you to resize your project.


The only draw back if you use the htm one is its now a web page, but you can get around that by using an iframe.
