Howdy - Working on a "design-y" site that would probably more naturally be done in the Flash Authoring tool but I want to understand more about Flex so I'm going that route. A designer I'm working with on the project delivered an Illustrator file that is the background for the main page of the site. I want it to be resizable when the browser changes. I'm going to use <mx:Text> at the top for the logo and navigation, which I don't want to resize when the browser changes - I want it to maintain its position. The overall effect should be similar to when you resize this site:
http://www.veroniquebranquinho.com/ I've exported her .ai file to SWF (so it stays as vector art) which is one of the neat features of Illustrator CS3 and I was using a SWFLoader to bring it into the Flex app and then doing some embedded fonts to render the navigation. All is well except that the SWF stays a static size when I resize, even when I set scaleContent = true. Any advice on making the swf resize? The code (minus the embedded font stuff) is below. Or is there just a better approach in general? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; backgroundColor="#0d0d0d" layout="absolute"> <mx:SWFLoader source="the_winner_with_logo.swf" width="1159" height="909" scaleContent="true"/> </mx:Application> thanks!!
