Hi,
I would suggest putting the movie to be scaled in a "wrapper" clip,
the working out the size yourself to scale it:
Look at the tutorials for doing Fluid layouts - Romualds post on
soundstep.com may help here. When you are fullscreen, etc. you can
scale the width & height of your wrapper clip to 80% or whatever percent
you would like - you will have to calculate the width / height yourself
based on the percentage that will fit this nicely into your 80%
"rectangle" whilst maintaining the aspect ratio.
Look at stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight and perhaps base your
initial scaling ratio's on an ideal known starting size, e.g. a 1024 x
768 screen would require a 819.2 x 614.4 sized rectangle, so your ideal
rectangle size and your actual one may change depending on the screen
resolution, but with a bit of maths you can calculate a good
approximation of 80% of the stage.stageWidth, etc. each time.
This is probably hard to explain clearly, so sorry if it sounds a
bit waffly, but using StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE is the start, you just
need to scale inside it. Here is one where I scale the size and
position of a clip in the bottom right hand corner, but restrict the
scaling to a minimum size.
private function onAddedToStage(event:Event):void {
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, redraw);
}
private function redraw(event:Event):void {
var scale:Number = Math.max(.6,stage.stageWidth / 1500);
man.scaleX = scale;
man.scaleY = scale;
man.x = stage.stageWidth - (man.width * scale) - 20;
man.y = stage.stageHeight - (man.height * scale);
}

I'd like the movie to scale to about 80% of the screen size rather
than 100% - is this possible?

If the swf size is fixed and you activate fullscreen, it should work as
expected. Sorry I don't have any source code example but I think I've
done
it. But around the movie you'll get the color set for the SWF,
meaning if
you want you fixed SWF sitting on a nice gradient background, I don't
think
it is possible...
If I remember well, better trying to be sure.
Let us know.

Subject: [Flashcoders] StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN
is it possible to set a projector to show in fullscreen but reduce
the actual movie to, say, 80% of the total screen size?
Basically I have a projector that I've been working on but the client
has asked that rather than have the window not scale within the
screen (which I was using stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE
for), they'd like the movie to scale up to the screen size. The
problem with this is that it can be rather over-powering as it's not
really been designed for this kind of view.
So my thinking is that I'd like it to scale to about 80% of the
screen size with the rest being a neutral border
is this possible?
thanks
Allandt
