RE: [flexcoders] Air NativeWindow in StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL

[Alex Harui]

I haven't tried it with AIR, but I'd assume the same principle applies.
There is a default size for the window and UI needs to map to it in
order to scale.

Subject: [flexcoders] Air NativeWindow in StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL

 

My project includes a main AIR window and another presentation window
to be displayed in a second large monitor. I have to use SHOW_ALL
scale mode to scale everything in that window but not layout for sure.

The problem is the presentation window is built with Flex
containers/components, in my short test, it scaled, but quite buggy. I
know Alex has discussed about this for Flex in browsers, but there's
somewhere else to adjust settings in html, but not Flex nativewindows
in AIR applications.

My experiments code as follow. Any help appriciated.

Thanks,
George
