    Grin Problem with project size

    I built a project at 800 x 600 (i needed the project area to be large because of the content). The problem is, a user's screen resolution needs to be set over 800 x 600 to view the application. Is there a way to insert a scroll bar on the right hand side of the application so that if the project window is reduced in size, the user can still scroll to the bottom of the application within the window?

    Thanks.

    Is this oversize issue due to your project having a menu bar?

    Two possibilities -
    1. Use the default settings in project size ( off the top of my head 790x545 or 790x525 with menu) for 800x600 or
    2. Can you use Kiosk Mode. This would almost certainly solve your problem.

    or use a paragraph object for your scrollbar and do a lot of math to move your objects in sync with the paragraph scroll, not easy but not impossabile

    Thank you for your replies. I am curious about Rizla's scrollbar idea using a paragraph object. Could you be a little more detailed?

    the idea comes from worms button viewer example, i have used this system in a app and it worked pretty good once you get your math right (window pos/size vs screen size vs object position vs scroll position)

    its a little tricky, heres worms example to get you started
