hi! kerry, thanx for the code. I tried it however, i keep getting the
following error:
script error : Handler definition expected
gScrHgt? = baScreenInfo("height")
What am i doing wrong? I have downloaded the budfull and budsaver xtras from
buddyAPI.I have added the budsaver.x32 xtra to the Xtras's folder in
Director.Is this the right xtra for adjusting the screen resolution?
Would you also be knowing of some code to make the movie adjust to the
desktop size regardless of the screeen resolution?
I did try the code below but it doesn't seem to work:
on prepareMovie
tRect = (the deskTopRectList)[1]
(the stage).rect = tRect
(the stage).drawRect = tRect
end
Hope you can help me solve this one :)
Thanx again.........Dimple
