then use Stage.width and Stage.height properties to position your objects. If
you have a button that you know is 80 pixels wide, you could position it 5
pixels in from the right edge by setting the button's x property to
Stage.width-85. Then it would be 5 pixels in from the right edge no matter what
size the stage is set to. If you aren't sure what the final dimensions of
your course is going to be, you might consider using this type of relative
positioning.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

started’ manual you show the interface icon being used to set
measurements for the frame but when I go to my file I have the name, title and
visuals fields but nothing in the drop down menu to add height, width etc.
Do I have to make a new swf and import that for it to work and if so does this
have to happen in Adobe Flash rather than Xerte? I went to the help
file and could not find more information so many apologies again. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

change the frame size on some learning objects I have made to 700 pixels
wide. I am wondering how to do this without the buttons being chopped off
at the side and losing some of the content. It seems just crop item when
you use the dimension feature rather than Just reduce the size generally.
Does this need to be done with script in a web page? <o:p></o:p></span></p>

trying to modify the html template (C:\Program

added style="margin:0" to the <body> tag, and I wonder if a

match the background color of the Learning Object).</span><o:p></o:p></p>
