View Full Version : from startup movie to page 1: one centimeter off

Hi everyone,

I have a small problem: I made a flash (swf) movie, same size as my project (800x600) and am using that as an intro via menu Project > Startup Movie.
I have ticked the box Flash file, added my swf movie, and set the Window size to "Size to Media". Rest of the settings is default.

Now when I preview my project, the startup movie plays fine and when I click on it, the first page shows, but... the first page is about 1 centimeter offset, a little higher and a little to the left of the startup movie.

Any idea which settings I have to change to align the startup movie with the project?

Thanks!!

Do you have a menu bar in your project?

No, project is "flat", no borders, no menu bar.
Navigation inside the project is done with buttons and assigned actions.

Try setting your flash size to a few pixels more in width and height than your project.

Try 28 pixels, that could be just enough...

Thanks. Just changing the startup movie settings to a slightly larger size didn't help: it resulted in an empty background "border" of 28 pixels behind the intro. And to get rid of that it would mean that I have to recreate the flash intro in a different size (larger than the rest of the project).
Well, the problem is not big enough to justify recreating my intro movie.

It still is funny, as the intro flash movie is exactly the same size as the project.
Thanks anyway!
