Cast member and sprite property |
| Description: |
This property controls the way a Flash movie is scaled within a sprite's bounding rectangle. When you scale a Flash movie sprite by setting its scale and viewScale properties, the sprite itself is not scaled, only the view of the movie within the sprite. The scaleMode property can have these values: |
|
 |
#showAll Maintain the aspect ratio of the original Flash movie cast member. If
necessary, fill in any gap on the horizontal or vertical dimension using the
background color.
|
|
#noBorder Maintain the aspect ratio of the original Flash movie cast member.
If necessary, crop the horizontal or vertical dimension.
|
|
#exactFit Do not maintain the aspect ratio of the original Flash movie cast
member. Stretch the Flash movie to fit the exact dimensions of the sprite.
|
|
|
The scaleMode property can be tested and set. The default setting is #showAll.
|
| Example: |
This sprite script checks the stage color of the Director movie and, if the stage color is indexed to position 0 in the current palette, it sets the scaleMode property of a Flash movie sprite to #showAll. Otherwise, it sets the scaleMode property to #noBorder. |
|
on beginsprite me
if the stagecolor = 0 then
set the scaleMode of sprite the spriteNum of me = #showAll
else
set the scaleMode of sprite the spriteNum of me = #noBorder
end
