Try this:

on startMovie
  
  pProportion = float(1200.00/768.00) -- this has to be a float
  
  pDesktopRect = the desktopRectList[1]
  pCenter = point(pDesktopRect.width/2,pDesktopRect.height/2)
  
  pWidth = pDesktopRect.width
  pHeight = float(pDesktopRect.height/pProportion)
  
  newRect = rect(0,0,pWidth,pHeight)
  (the stage).drawrect = newRect 
  
  -- offset the rect to fit in the center of the screen 
  newRect =
rect(pCenter[1]-newRect.width/2,pCenter[2]-newRect.height/2,pCenter[1]+newRe
ct.width/2,pCenter[2]+newRect.height/2)
  
  (the stage).rect = newRect 
  
End

Hope this will help...it's quick and dirty but should do the job

Sorry I didn't include that, but I've tried the suggestion in the help file

(the stage).drawRect = the desktopRecList[]
(the stage).rect = the desktopRecList[]

In every combination, but the image ends up fitting top to bottom but
everytime the right side get cropped off. :(

Thanks,
John
