Tue, 28 Apr 2009 20:59:25 +0000 http://drawk.wordpress.com/2007/04/15/fluid-flash-layouts/#comment-2798 Hey Drawk, I LOVE AND APPRECIATE this tutorial, it has helped me out big time in what i need to do and has cut out a lot of work that i needed to do. However, i have the same problem as someone else that has posted here. I'm using a background image for the site, and the background image is rather big. I'd like to have it scaled so that whatever dimension of the browser window is bigger, it takes that and scales the picture to that size and crops the rest off. so if my picture is 800x800 and the browser size at the moment is 600x800, i'd like it to only display the center 600 px of the image and obviously be its full 800 px in width. does this make sense? I'm also not very good any AS3 yes, still learning, so if you can provide me with a sample code or something, i would greatly appreciate it. RUBEN Hey Drawk,

I LOVE AND APPRECIATE this tutorial, it has helped me out big time in what i need to do and has cut out a lot of work that i needed to do.

However, i have the same problem as someone else that has posted here.

Have a question: Is there a way to add easing to the screen objects which adjust when the stage is re sized ? Hey, firstly, great work!

There is also Degrafa that might be trying some of this. I think this is all good along with yours. Hey bougie,

I don't really think there is any good AS layout engine out there and that's the reason why I built mine. It is very similar to Microsoft's WPF when it comes to architecture and margins feature but it comes with added features. For example, instead of using left, right, top, bottom or center as alignments, I use a number between 0 and 1. 0 corresponds to left or top and 1 corresponds to right or bottom and everything else falls in between... In the link below, you can see a demo where I have a vertical stackPanel that has 3 children - 2 horizontal stackPanels and one UIElement( square ). Each of the 2 horizontal stackPanels have 3 UIElement children. To test it, you can click on any UIElement ( square ) or stackPanel's border and animate it by clicking on the animate button and you will see the power of the engine. http://blog.bouguerra.org/flash/layout/TestEverything.html Hey Drawk; I searched for senocular layout engine and couldn’t find anything… I don’t really think there is any good AS layout engine out there and that’s the reason why I built mine.

There is also a senocular layout engine and what I was trying to do here is get to the core of what enabled fluid layouts, and that is the stage and onResize events. I hope there are many more layout engines and more knowledge gained in making full use of the screen real estate. Thanks Bougie, it looks very interesting.
