[flexcoders] Can I have SWFLoader automatically scale the content swf?

[Stephen Roy J. Tang]

Hi,

I'm trying to do this thing where I have a VDividedBox, the top half
contains an SWFLoader that will load another Flex SWF. I want to
resize the SWFLoader automatically when the containing canvas is
resized by dragging the divider, and also for the content inside the
SWFLoader to scale automatically. Can this be done?

What I tried is something like:

test.mxml
=========

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
layout="absolute">
        <mx:VDividedBox width="543" height="312">
                <mx:Canvas id="myCanvas" height="300">
                <mx:SWFLoader source="test2.swf" id="ld" 
maintainAspectRatio="true"
height="{myCanvas.height-20}" scaleContent="true" />
                </mx:Canvas>
                <mx:Canvas>
                <mx:Text text="The bottom half of the vdivided box" />
                </mx:Canvas>
        </mx:VDividedBox>
</mx:Application>

test2.mxml
==========

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
layout="absolute">
        <mx:Text x="22" y="10" text="I want this content to scale"/>
        <mx:Image x="22" y="36" width="197" height="28" source="untitled.jpg"/>
</mx:Application>


Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Roy
