(If anyone knows a better title -> you're welcome :lol: )

The box is drawn with drawing api and its sides curve while resizing. I had a difficulty retrieving the width and heigth, so there's a transparent box that resizes and outputs the right width and height for the drawing :)

I really like it, but is it possible to make it more springy and "live"?

Thanks

this would have been fantastic if you could also put in content and that would also bounce ....

I'm not that big an idiot! Im assuming that the fla posted was for MX2004, as i will not open with MX for me.

that's an awesome effect, but I don't know if you're aware of TokyoPlastic.com :) They've used a similiar (if not exact effect) on their site. But BIG props to you in figuring it out!

I think this effect is wicked, but how can i make so after a button is pressed to resize it a swf loads? I've been having a look at the code & can't figure it out, because i want the file to load after it has resized...ant suggestions?

Thanks

Awsome job Scotty!!~ i have a few questions in regards to this,

1) what's the purpose or function of the bg Movie Clip Instance serve? can i get ride of it? i just add a line of code bg._visible = false; at the end of the script to hide it, and it works for now, but i knew its not the perfect solution, can i get ride of it?

2) After i loaded this into another MC the bg and the top gray gradient box became seperated, please see attachment for example. how can i fix that?

3) I am not very good with AS, just started few days ago:hugegrin:, i would like to know how to load contents into box after it resized, something like scotty's Image Resize Gallery http://www.2rdesign.com/gallery/V3_thumbs_scrolled.html , can both be intergrated?

any help would be greatly appreciated.

peace :rabbit:

@sumtan:
on 1: you need the background for the right width and height, so setting it invisble is the best solution (for the moment)
on 2: refer bg's x/and to Stage as well:

var scx = bg._x = Stage.width/2;
var scy = bg._y = Stage.height/2;
on 3: that's possible, you can let the loadPic function call the resize function (i/o the resizeMe function), give the background an instancename 'border'
