rdwatson,.... you need to add the FullscreenBackgroundImage before the other assets in your movie. of try

this.addChildAt( myFullScreenBackground, 0 )

squaredmonkey: I will resend the file. What errors are you getting?

Could this be made to also handle .swf files that I might want to play in the background?

Not currently. I plan to add that functionality in version 2.

fixed it with

var background: FullScreenBackground = new FullScreenBackground (stage,2,true); addChild(background); background.setBackground(“image”,LayoutItem.CENTER,false); setChildIndex(background,0);

this works fine when playing by itself but when I play this swf in another flash file I get:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. . . .

I’m guessing that the FullScreenBackground.as is trying to reference the wrong stage but putting “this.” into my initialization hasn’t helped.

Here it is. iHome.swf is base flash app which loads other swf’s as selected by user. It loads home.swf first. Then I click on weather btn, attempts to load weather.swf which is the file which uses the full screen background. Weather.swf runs fine when played independently…

Purchased and followed Tutorial. Very straightforward and simple and it seems to work fine when i test in flash. If i publish the corresponding html file (from flash), it seems to kill the image resize when you resize the browser window. Do i have to change anything in publish settings?

resolved the issue. You wrote: “Automatically sets up your stage scale and alignment properties for the full screen background to function properly.”

which is misleading (at least in my case). In order for it to work, i had to go into publish settings > html and set ‘dimensions’ to ‘Percent’ (100×100 percent).

after that it seems to work nicely. thank you!

hi, all works great, just 1 question. Am using this code…

var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(“animation.swf”;); var changer:Loader = new Loader(); changer.load(request); addChild(changer);

...to add a swf animation on top of the background, which works, but i need to make it move/stay centred when the browser is resized. At the moment it stays still which is not great. Any ideas?

thanks in advance
