Hi  
I’ve built a flash presentation at 1024x768. When i view it on my monitor at any other resolution than that, it pixelates ☹ I thought vector graphics didn’t do that?  
Is there a command i can use to change the screen resolution automaticly when a user opens the presentation?  
Otherwise, how do i stop it getting distorted  
These are the commands i start the show with  
fscommand(“fullscreen”, “true”);  
fscommand(“allowscale”, “true”);  
fscommand(“showmenu”, “false”);

If you have imported images (jpg, gif, png, etc) in your file, they will pixelate because they are not vector.

And no, I don’t believe Flash itself has a command that can automatically change the viewers screen resolution, besides, I don’t think people would want you doing that to them anyway :-\
