Hi Patrick,

This depends on your theme - best thing is to open the theme in the Dialog Editor and check the size of the control directly.

thanks for your replay!

how can you imply that everbody is willed to buy the expensive studio edition? i am thinking about buying the developer edition. not more.

and i already wrote in my last post, that i use alpha style.

i hate to bother other guys in a forums like that but i am not able to find a documentation with essential informations like the one i need.

so, whats the size please?

Sorry - as you didnt specify the edition you were using, I didn't know.

The control size in the Alpha theme is:
Height: 329
Width: 729

Hope that helps.

thank you for you fast replay!

yes and no. i already tried that size, but when i create a little flash movie with that dimensions it get resized and you can see white borders on the right, on the bottom and on the top with different strength.

of course, i use the background color from alpha style in my flash movie and dont want any border so it looks perfekt implemented. the border are not in the flash movie.

i guess theres no solution, right?

Well, as long as the swf is slightly smaller than the control size, it should not be scaled.

Can you send me your fla and swf file? I'll investigate it for you.

ok, following setup works for me:

the flash projekt background color must have the background color form alpha as well.

the flash project must be 728 x 328 in size. exactly!

everything else will not work 100%
