fieldOfView | SPi-V devgetting a linked SPi-V player in Director to expand & contract with browser window
Submitted by petergot on December 5, 2006 - 03:44.
I'm trying to get a pano displayed through a linked SPi-V player in Director to expand and contract along with the browser window, as it normally would when played as a single dcr file and not as a linked cast member.
But the stage and width parameters set in the HTML page do not seem to effect the linked SPi-V content. Any content in the main parent movie, however, does stretch and contract as expected.
Is there any special procedure for preparing SPi-V so its content also stretchs to fit the browser window?
An example of what I'm trying to accomplish can be seen in the amazing animated geyser pano on Denis Glikssman's site:

Thanks in advance for any help.
stage size/sprite size
There are two settings to check in the publishing options:
Next, you have to make sure the sprite is resized when the stage is resized. I use a frame behavior for that, but you could just as well use a moviescript, or a sprite behavior.
property pStageRect
on exitframe
go to the frame
if (the stage).rect <> pStageRect then
pStageRect = (the stage).rect
sprite(1).rect = rect(0,0, (the stage).rect.width, (the stage).rect.height)
end if
end exitframe
