I found some code online which I turned into a function... This
should give you the scale whether you are scaling up or down. You
tell it the area you want your mc to fit into and it will give you a
number back...all you have to do is then use that number...example:
mc._xscale = mc._yscale = number_returned_from_function.
Maybe this helps out a bit?
function fitToDimension( sourceWidth:Number, sourceHeight:Number,
targetWidth:Number, targetHeight:Number ):Number {
if ( sourceWidth/targetWidth > sourceHeight/targetHeight ) {
//aspect ratio is determined by width
return (targetWidth*100/sourceWidth);
} else {
//aspect ratio is determined by height
return (targetHeight*100/sourceHeight);
}
}

I know how to scale an image down... what's the formula for scaling
up too?
For instance, i want my images to be in proportion and at least 500
pixels wide.
Thanks,
