Resizing the browser window

1

Hi all,
Does anyone know if the Flash player can detect the viewers screen resolution and then scale its own window accordingly?
Also, I’m looking for a way to have a movie clip scroll up and down. It would be controlled by other buttons and be smaller than the movie. The scroll pane Flash Component just is too big.

Thanks,
Brock

if you want your movie viewable on all resolutions just go to publish settings and in html choose in dimensions percent, be advised though in smaller resolutions it can be viewed but text might become unreadible so be carefull, or if you know your java you can make a script wich detects the users resolution and if its lower than the resolution you specify it will open another page with the resolution you specify, but you have to design another movie for said resolution so it all depends

1st method mentioned: Yes this works, but your text and images also scale, causing distortion if you don’t set it up right.

2nd method mentioned: Yes, I wrote a script for this a while ago one day while wondering something almost like this (but with HTML). Check the attachment below.
