Thanks Julian, <br>After changing the mask to a MC (defined as shown in the
attached screen grab), I'm getting unexpected numbers for it's dimensions.<br><br>My swf icon is called "graphic", and my onLoad script contains the following:<br>
<br>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;">debug('graphic is ' + graphic);<br>
debug('width is ' + graphic._width);<br>
debug('height is ' + graphic._height);<br>
debug('mask width is ' + graphic.myMask._width);<br>
debug('mask height is ' + graphic.myMask._height);<br>
<br>
</div>
I can't figure out why my debug window is giving me the following:<br>
<br>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;">graphic is _level0.engine.IFC.PG_MC2.DIS_MC3<br>
width is 481.9<br>
height is 158<br>
mask width is 1900<br>
mask height is 1200<br>
</div>
<br>
Am I accessing the the swf correctly? <br>Suspect I'm either making a really stupid mistake, or basically don't understand how to access a MC contained in a swf.<br>

The mask does not have a name but I do have the source files and will give it
one to test out the theory. <br>

Thanks!<br>

<p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-left: 72pt;">Hi all,<br>
I can't figure this one out, and can't find anything in the list
archives. Anybody know if this is possible?<br>
<br>
I'm trying to get at the <u>stage</u> width and height of a swf loaded onto a
page. I'm using the Text Flash SWF page template with a swf that has
elements hanging off the sides of the stage that we don't see because of a
mask.<br>
<br>
Graphic._width returns the width of everything including the elements we don't
see, so when the template places a panel behind it, it's too wide. Not a
big deal to fix by hand but it would be great if I could somehow get at the swf
stage width & height to size the panel automatically.<br>
<br>
The stage for the swf is 440 x 158, but graphic._width returns 481.9 which
includes the stuff we don't see.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
ma<br>
<br>
