Change size of stage

1

I have set up a large flash project at 550 X 400 but i need to change it to 800 X600px. How can this be done and change all the elements in the project. So far it just changes the stage and leaves all the other stuff small… I really really REALLY do not want to create this whole thing over again.

help please:scream:

Do you use scenes?

and why do you have to change the size of the stage?

The imediate thing that comes to mind is to save your current production… create a new one at the required size and use loadMovie(); to load the other swf into the larger one during run time. Then you simply scale it to whatever size you need it.

onClipEvent(data){
_yscale=150;
_xscale=150;
}

might work.

I’m really just guessing though. The reason you need to scale it is important to the reply. :slight_smile:

I need to change it because I saved it to disk and played it on a different computer with an autorun feature. When I tested it on my computer I didn’t realize the size was so small because on the test screen I was able to make it larger and many times it was larger then the actual size by default. But after saving it and playing it on another system the maximum size of the production was too small. So I need to enlarge the entire thing including the buttons and text and all. When I test the prod. I am able to scale it up and down as needed and everything moves in proportion. I would like to apply the same type of theory to the working piece not the swf and not have to change each and every element.

Yes they are in scenes.

thanks guys…
