But I need my app to be "SHOW_ALL". So everything gets scaled to the maximum width/height of the window. Here is another example: http://kolt-siewerts.com/flexTest/helloWorld/ <http://kolt-siewerts.com/flexTest/helloWorld/> (right-click for source view) The text scales just like I want it to: according to the window-scale. But if you scale the browser window to an extreme 5:1 ratio, you see a black bar at the sides. And no, setting maxWidth or minWidth does not work ;) --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> , Joseph Balderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Your Application should stretch with the inner browser width & height by > default, you don't need to monkey with the Stage object like you do in > Flash. > > If what you want is a background which covers the whole browser screen, > let the Application fill up the space.
