background / foreground scaling and positioning

[k_os]

how is this achieved?

the background image stretches to fit the browser (i'm guessing because of the width and height set to 100% in the <object> tag?). but how is the foreground flash not stretching and always staying centered vertically and horizaontally?

should sort you out

some stuff there for tiling the bg in flash as well if you need to (firefox don't like transparent flash movies) http://www.flashgroup.net/forum/showthread.php?t=2818

actually, i'm using firefox 1.0 and i have no problems with transparency... the only browser i've found that does is opera.

at any rate, i think i found some code to do what i'm looking for:

Stage.scaleMode -- allows contents to not scale when window is resized
Stage.onResize() -- if it is resized, do something here (like resize a background image)

would i be right in assuming this?

clicking and dragging buttons? what are you talking about?

and yes i looked at those links, that's where i got the code to which i was referring earlier.

clicking and dragging buttons? what are you talking about?

SCROLLBARS, or anything else u click on and want to drag. i.e. a button, that you click on, and then drag somewhere on the screen, this causes a problem with transparent movies in firefox
