Flashblocks Flash CMS Component
(Flash Content Management System)

hi!
would be great if anybody could help me or give me an idea with dynamically scaling the flashblock height without scaling the content loaded(in my case a text field which should have its myTXTflashblock._height=Stage.height)


here comes the code:

Code: :

lstrn = new Object(); lstrn.onResize = function() {inhalt0.HOMESITE.NEWS._height = Stage.height-240;}

i'm not sure if this will work at all but the basic idea was to set a listener for onRezize, and if Stage.height has changed it should be same height for the flashblock - so the question is :
why will it resize/scale the text in the field itself and how do i get it running that way, that only a text.length>=stage height will enable the scrollbar function otherwise scrollbars would be disabled?
or do i have to add enable/disable-function seperately in the text module? not sure anymore what to do. i'm bit confused cause my experiments show me a working file flashblock with text but it resizes the fontsize itself too ...

thx for help in advance:)

If we are talking about Flashblocks 1 - Developer and basic, then you can attach a flashblock with attachMovie and set it's width and height.

thx , will try it out :)

thx for the answer about attaching movie clip via actionscript. that works now for me.
i'm able f.ex. to attach a flashblock nested in mcNews , (mcNews uses linkage-identifier news)

when doing so all will be displayed fine,100%scale.

My basic script added to the onResize-script looks like this

Code: :

Stage.scaleMode = "noScale"; Stage.align = "TL"; lstrn = new Object(); lstrn.onResize = function() { news._height=Stage.height-100}; Stage.addListener(lstrn); lstrn.onResize(); attachMovie("news","news",100); news._x=100 news._y=100

lstrn.onResize = function() {...this is part i'm unsure about...};

when a onResize happends my created instance should not resize the fontsize as it does yet , i want it only to add or subtract height of the textfield depending on the calculated stage.height. -
if there is enough height it should be displayed without scrollbars.
if user turns browserwindow in smaller scale the textfield should be displayed and recalculate the textfields and the scrollbars height.
This is what i wanted to do, but by now my script only rescales the news instance AND the fontsize of my textblock.(f.ex. with resizing browserscale, at a height=300 fontsize goes 5 or 6,with heights 700+ it gets a 16+ font and bigger...can't i have a one sized font that way?) i can add a screen if that helps to understand the problem...

Could it be that i have to add code anywhere into the scrollbarscripts or the cmsOBJ scroll sys?do i have to change txtbox._height f.ex?
Or is there a trick getting this to work anyhow?


thanks for sharing your time with my problem, you may faster know what to do :)
