There is no API to set the stage size for browser/web apps via ActionScript. The stage is sized by the HTML wrapper. In theory, you could write JavaScript code in the HTML wrapper and call it via ExternalInterface.
Note that Flash has some built in pan/zoom capabilities on the right-click menu. OTOH, I don't remember if Flex turns off these options by default or not. You may also need to follow the rules explained here: http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui/2008/01/flex_and_scalemodes.html -Alex On 12/29/13 8:42 PM, "Tom Berry" <[email protected]> wrote: >I am trying to create a Web and Desktop flex application for people who >may >have less than perfect vision.
