I need help in keeping my published flash exe center-aligned (stage.Align=
In xml set
slideshowX="center"
slideshowY="center"
Sorry Alex, but that does NOT work.
Also, I don't know why my post has been cut off, I wrote more than one line of problem explanation... ?¿
Centering X and Y on XML has no effect on my project centering...
I will repeat my situation:
My stage is center-aligned, and allowing for scaling of the exe window (i need the user to scale EVERYTHING in case he does not have resolution to see everything)
I am loading your slideshow into a clip in my timeline through the loadMovie method. Everything works fine in the exported exe (scaling/centering) UNTIL your slideshow loads . After that, all my contents are ok, including the slideshow BUT i am no longer able to scale the window and EVERYTHING is aligned top left.
My project does not need embedding into html... i only need to publish an EXE file.
PLEASE help or let me know how much it will cost me to resolve this situation.

Sorry about the post being cut off, might be a a bug in the forum.
The slideshow sets Stage.align = "TL" and Stage.scaleMode="noScale"
If you want to keep your own scaleMode and align, you need to define the following to match your settings:
_level0.stageAlign
_level0.stageScaleMode
The slideshow will assign the values you set in your parent fla.
Hello Alex.
_level0.Stage.align="T" and _level0.stage.scaleMode="showall"
does NOT work.
I am introducing these values on the first frame of my timeline.
When I publish the final exe file (or its corresponding swf) I am having the same issues: The movie starts center-aligned and it is scalable, but when I arrive at the frame where your slideshow is loaded into my clip, the stage auto-aligns top-left and scales to 100% size.
I can reproduce this same behaviour in a simple file, loading your slideshow into a movie clip on my timeline through a button action: as stated before, the movie is centered and scalable, and as soon as the button loads your slideshow I lose the initial behaviour.
Please look into this, or please tell me your rates so you can implement it. I would be happy if I was just able to keep my stage centered... maybe rescaling is not very easy to do since your slideshow is scaling clips already at runtime while using kenBurns.
In my previous cut-off post, I also inquired about what you state to be a new functionality in your updated slideshow (which of course i am using). You say we can now have a per-slide kenBurns effect. By this I understand i can have one image having an in-out kenburns effect while the next can have a pan up-down effect... true? If so, where is this set on the xml? There is only one general variable for the selection of the effect, affecting ALL images.
Thanx again.
Cheers.

It should be:
_level0.stageAlign="T"
_level0.stageScaleMode="showAll"
case sensitive and no Stage
It should be:
_level0.stageAlign="T"
_level0.stageScaleMode="showAll"case sensitive and no Stage
well that does NOT work either Alex. It does exactly the same thing I have already explained... the exe or swf is aligned and centered but as soon as your slideshow loads into my loader clip on the timeline, my whole stage justifies top left and rescales to 100 size.
Also, the "s" in "Stage" MUST be capitalized otherwise actionscript does not recognize "stageScaleMode" as an action. (I am using AS2)
Are you sure an external clip with stage parameters within it loaded into a clip on the main movie (not into a level) doesnt override the initial stage set? Afterall, it is your slideshow loading with top-left and no-scale alignment AFTER my main movie has declared those values in the first place...
Please look into this. A while ago I sent you a simple fla example, that loads your clip into a mc on the main movie and even though _level0stage params are set as you say the problem resides. You never answered so I reposted this problem on this forum... do you need me to resend the fla?
And again, I am willing to pay your rates to have this basic functionality work as I (and maybe other users) need.
thank you again.

OOPS.
Actually, if you DONT capitalize that first "s" in stage it works as I expected.
I was obstinately thinking those values were actionscript commands, and re-spelling them so they showed in blue color on the AS pane... they must be internal variables that your slideshow reads or something. Following your instructions exactly (and doing any thinking) solves this issue.
My apologies for insisting.
Congrats again on your tool.
Will recommend it around here for sure.
