addChild improperly scaling?

[substance]

So I have a 'frame' that has a height of 400 and a 'picture' with a height of 400 as well.

For some reason when I add the picture as a child of frame some weird scaling happens where it looks like it's shrinking the frame yet when i trace it's height it's something like 2000 height.

Any idea what's going on?

You need to explain what you mean by 'frame'. There is no way to understand what is happening without more information.

Oh, hah, I see how 'frame' could be confusing. I didnt litterally mean a frame on the timeline.

Both 'frame' and 'picture' are moveclips. 'frame' is simply a 400x400 square with a stroke , 'picture' is a movieclip with a bitmap image (dynamically loaded) inside with the same size.

They both have a height of 400 before i do "frame.addChild(picture)" but once it's done, strange scaling occurs and messes up everything.

I'll try to make a simple test.fla
