Topic: Full screen at all times

Hello,

I purchased the SimpleViewer Pro and got it working, however I have a small issue I'd like to solve.
I'm using really large images in my swf (1920x1150 pixels) in order to fill the entire screen. However, since the images are of a certain proportion and the screens and browser active area of others, the image will stretch only to the shortest dimension. If the browser is wide and narrow (width greater than height) the image will take 100% of browser's height and on left and right side I have margins. If the browser is narrow and tall (height greater than width) the image will take 100% of browser's width and on top and bottom I'll have margins.

What I'd like to have is to fill 100% of browser area at all times. I'd like the swf to scale (just as it does now) but if user is using some strange browser proportions, I'd like the image to crop.

You can  see a working example of what I mean at www dot dudihasson dot com.
I think this page also shows what I need: blog dot deconcept dot com/swfobject/fullpage.html

Thank you all in advance.

SimpleViewer does not support this type of scaling. SimpleViewer scales the image to appear as large as possible without cropping or changing the aspect ratio.

If you want to implement scaling with cropping you will need to modify the source code.

Re: Full screen at all times

Hello all,

Could anyone with experience with flash point me in the right direction. Creating such scaling is beyond my scope of knowledge.

Thank you,
