If I understand the concept, I think this would require cross-domain
policy to be turned on for my domain. What we're trying to do here is
load in an arbitrary swf hosted on an arbitrary domain.
You're talking about creating a new sprite in the scope of the loaded
swf, right?

Just brainstorming here, not sure if this will work. Can you not put a box
or something on the stage that is the same size as the stage. If you can
access individual components on the stage then get the size of this box and
you will know the size of the stage. Just my $0.02 worth

No, this is not easy. Unfortunately the data that defines the stage size is
not directly available in AS code. I believe it is only in the swf
file's header, so you would actually have to do a lot of work to figure out
what size the swf should be masked at.

I'm using AS3. After loading in an arbitrary swf using the Loader class,
getRect and getBounds don't necessarily reveal the internally defined
boundaries of the loaded swf, rather they seem to return the boundaries of
the stuff inside the loaded swf which can be either smaller or larger than
the internally defined boundaries. Am I missing something?
I want to load in a swf, create a mask around it so that only the stuff
that is supposed to show is shown, and then scale it to fit a target area.
This should be easy, right?
Thanks!
