stage size of an actionscript loaded movie

[mjstrand]

I've tried to figure out how to get the stage size of a movie that is loaded by actionscript into a main .fla file. I'm using flash mx. I've managed to get the boundary extents which was also helpful, but I am trying to resize the original stage size to that of a carrier window.

Right now, I created a small piece of code in the loaded movie with hardcoded values for the stage size. Is taht the only way to handle that when the boundary is bigger or smaller than the stage size?

The concept of Stage is irrelevant if you're loading a movie into it: Stageonly applys to the main timeline.

If you want to scale the movieclip to the size of the Stage try this:

myClip_mc._x = myClip_mc._y = 0;
myClip_mc._width = Stage.width;
myClip_mc._height = Stage.height;

You'll need to publish for at least flash player 6.

cheers.
