color=#0000ff size=2>If you set the stageSize property on the Learning Object,
you can 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.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

to be a pain Julian. In the ‘getting 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>

style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">I
am so sorry to bother folks this week but I have been asked to 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?
