Hiya Gang,
I'm putting together a flash book using the FlippingBook (http://page-flip.com/) Component and ran into a quick snag. To get the screen resolution that I wanted, I converted a PDF over to SWF files and it looks great ... except some random pages seem to be smushed and out of scale. Has anyone else encountered this? Any one have an idea how to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Hi there,

There is an option in component to scale content.Look at this !




<FlippingBook>
<width>680</width>
<height>500</height>

<scaleContent>true</scaleContent>
<firstPage>0</firstPage>
<alwaysOpened> false </alwaysOpened>



Pull out the component properties and locate the thing called "Scale Page Content", and set it to "true".


If you have it this way. All images/swfs will be scalled to the size you specify in your xml config.

Regards,
Rutin

Hello Rutin!
Many thanks for the advice ... but I have that implimented in my XML and am still having size issues. The closest I get is when using the Parameters in Flash to modify things, but I still have problems. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the SWF files, as the JPGs scaled okay (the text was really poor res though). When I converted over from PDF to SWF, the text looks fantastic ... however there are now size issues. Any other suggestions?

It wouldn't help ... the book isn't up on it yet. I've got to get the book working and approved before I can place it on the web :confused:
