How to change size of a project dynamically ?

[gbe]

Hello,

I am working on a project and I want to be able to change the size of my project and all objects inside (Example: From 800x600 To 1024x768) by a clic on a button for example. Is there exist a quick solution or do I have to create a script?

I already start to write code to change pages and images size but HotSpot failed with a strange message:

On click, line 41: Attempt to index global 'HotSpot' (a nil value)

Please help me....

It's Hotspot not HotSpot

while still learning the functions in AMS i would recomend useing the action wizard to avoide silly typos like this, while learning AMS i found the action wizard a very helpful tool.

it would be nice if the AMS script editor (both internal and external) would pick up on functions and key works and automaticly correct the case just like PureBasic dose.

Hello,

Thank you for your replies. I saw my error but it do not solve my original problem. Do you have a method to re-size the project dynamically?

Heres a bit of an example, I set Auto-Resize to right.

[RizlaUK]

yes, with AMS7 its very easy to dynamicly resize the project window and objects (thanks again IR)

just check the right boxes

Thank you to provide me a quick answer. It's very good.


Could you please explain me how is it working? I load the project without understand where was the code to re-size the projet.

ok, when you double click a object you get a properties window, click the attributes tab

notice the area what says Auto-Resize, there are 4 checkboxes (left, right, top and bottom)

you use these checkboxes to tell the app what parts of the object to move when the page is resized,

you will need to *play* with these settings till you get a grip on how it all works but this is much easyer than it used to be (used to code the whole thing in script)

basicly, check the top box and only the top will move, check the top and bottom and the whole object will move up or down, same for left and right


hope that hepls
