Hi,

Does anyone know why sometimes the “resolution” in a movieclip is different to the main stage? Is there a way to change it? Sometime when I open or am using someone elses flash file I open up a MC to paste in a graphic and its huge and have to scale it to fit but can never get it quite right.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
