Scalable

Hello,
I need to see if the final output of a project, html/flash can be scaled according to browser size so you do not have to scroll at all. Is Captivate 3 capable of this?

This option does not work in firefox. It only seemed to work for me in ie.

Welcome to our community, Thanatos40

You may try the following approaches:

* Edit the HTML page created by Captivate so instead of reserving specific pixel dimensions, it specifies 100%. The caveat to this is that in the past when I have tried it, it looked fine in IE but made the movie tiny in FireFox. I do suppose YMMV.

* You could link directly to the .SWF instead of the HTML. The caveat here is that sometimes the browser may not understand what to do with the SWF.

In either case, please note that the quality of your output will likely suffer. The degree to which the suffering occurs depends on how much deviation happens between the recorded size and the presented size. Some folks are fine with this while others complain. It's subjective at best.

Best of luck to you in finding a solution that works for you.

Cheers... Rick
