Hello Everyone.

Im trying to understand how to scale a importing SWF.

With the tutorial :  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/preloader\_transition.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/preloader_transition.htm)

Im just trying to load a .swf 800x600 but scale as the same window size 400x200 as the Kipupa tutorial. It is possible?

Hoping to get some news & a solution!

Thx. Fred
