Hi,
I saw the nike skateboarding site v3 and really liked the browser scrollbar working along with Flash - cool! And they also have it working cross platform and browser. It looks like it uses swfforce and swfobject.
I checked out the swfforcesize, but couldn’t get it working with the scrollwheel in IE6/PC… after a few mornings of messing around with it – trying to make it work, I moved on … but in my research I saw swffit and it works great, does pretty much the same thing.
So, I thought how big can the dynamic Flash content area be? What if I have a bunch of images that load dynamically and the swffit height is coming from the total dynamic height. Here’s where I’m stuck, I’ve got the height for setting swffit coming in dynamically, but at 4092px the clips stop displaying. Is there some limit to the visible or viewable height of a Flash movie? I’ve seen and read about mc size limits, but what if you’re duplicating or attaching a clip one after another?
Here are a couple of my examples, in here you can see the ‘page’ height from swffit is working but then the duplicated clips just cut off at 4092, what really trips me out is the text inside the attached movieclip keeps going with the correct positions, but the other art - a box - clips off.

here’s the one with the dynamic content:

I’m pretty sure I should stop messing around and just design what I need based on the limitation, but sometimes I can’t let go of wanting the knowing, know what i’m saying?
Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.
