Hi,

I’m trying to grab a flash file off a partners website that is quite large in width (it’s too big I think). When I put it in a module wrapper it has a scroll bar on the horizontal axis. This is fine but not the best look. What would be cool is if I could slightly reduce the size of the flash file so that it fits in the wrapper with no scroll bars, is this possible and if so how?

Link as follows:

I guess if we can’t reduce the flash file size to say 80% width we could look at reducing the wrapper padding, does anyone know which file I need to change and is it a simple fix?

Thanks for anyone’s help….

Tomo

Dear Tomo,

As I know, in wrapper module, there is a param that let you choose to display scrollbar or not. Please have a look at attached pic.

Yep, that’s great but doesn’t solve the problem. I would really like to fit the flash within the wrapper without having to use scroll bars i.e. shrink to wrapper width…..is this possible with flash and the wrapper?

cheers,

Tomo

Hi,
Do you still use this flash? I don’t see it in your site now.

I do but it now displays in a new window until I can solve the flash resizing issue, any ideas?

Hi tomo555,

Please send me page where you use this flash and if possible, pm me a private message with admin account. I’ll check this for you.

This flash animation I’m trying to fit in one article without scrolling and want to reduce to fit is found here:

http://www.spagrand.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=124:solar-hot-water-case-study&catid=98&Itemid=610

When you click on the link in the article it goes to an external site and this is what I originally tried to put in an article wrapper but it didn’t fit properly.

Sorry to be completely stupid but how do I PM you? :-[

Cheers,

Tomo

If you read my original post I was trying to fit this “now” external flash page into a wrapper that I wanted to shrink to fit WITHOUT having to use the scrolling facility. Because there is no available solution to this right now I had to move it to an external window WITH NO WRAPPER.

PLEASE ANYONE CAN YOU ANSWER THE QUESTION: IS IT POSSIBLE TO SHRINK A FLASH OBJECT SO THAT IT FITS INTO A WRAPPER PERFECTLY (WITH NO SCROLLING)????????????????????????????

thanks very much……;-)

I understand your expectation, but unfortunately we can not control external link (flash) in this case.
