Display flash window centre screen

[gbk]

Hi any chance any1 can help

Im making a CD that loads up a flash projecter file, problem is the window is partly off screen when it is diplayed, i need to know how i can get it to display the flash projector window centre of screen on which ever computer the CD is inserted in

Im sure its a simple bit of action script, but ive spent hours and cant work it out , im pretty new to flash

cheers

your feedback would be much appreciated

Can't you just use an index.html file to accomplish this same task? If this is going to be put on to a CD you could just use the <center> </center> tag around the flash document? If this is not going to work for you, you could use this action script code...

Code: Select all

// Create a function for the event you want to listen for
stageListener.onResize = function ()
{
    // Get the width and height of the stage 
    // & multiply by half
var stageXCenter = Stage.width * .5;
    var stageYCenter = Stage.height * .5;

    // Offset the center point with half of 
// the clip width and height 
// (you can also use the -= operator and simply this)
stageXCenter = stageXCenter  - (myClip._width * .5);
    stageYCenter = stageYCenter  - (myClip._height * .5);

    // place the clip with the offset
    myClip._x = stageXCenter;
    myClip._y = stageYCenter;
}

I hope this helps, and or accomplishes the task you needed it too. If not just reply with more detail and I will try again. Thanks!!

Sorry that was my only ideal. Maybe you can find the answer elsewhere.
