Dreamweaver makes it easy to rescale a Flash movie. First, in the Property inspector, make
sure the original width and height of your file are displayed in the W and H text boxes. Then,
while holding down the Shift key, click and drag the corner resizing handle of the Flash placeholder icon to
the new size for the movie. By Shift+dragging, you retain the aspect ratio set in the Property inspector,
which enables you to quickly enlarge or reduce your movie without distortion.
Additional parameters for Flash
Flash has two additional attributes that can be entered through the Parameters dialog box (click the
Parameters button on the Property inspector): salign and swliveconnect. The salign attribute
determines how the movie aligns itself to the surrounding frame when the Scale attribute is set to Show All.
In addition, salign determines which portion of the image is cut off when the Scale attribute is set to No
Border. The alignment can be set to L (left), R (right), T (top), or B (bottom). You can also use these values
in combination. For example, if you set salign to RB, the movie aligns with the bottom-right edge or the
lower-right corner of the frame.
The swliveconnect attribute comes into play when you??™re using FSCommands or JavaScript in your
Flash movies.
