Hi All,
I am working on developing a design studio which is fully dynamic. The purpose of the design studio is to load the images dynamically from the server, also the user can browse the image from his local hard drive and the enlarged image should be displayed in the stage.

I am stuck up in the resizing area. I need to resize the dynamic loaded images proportionately, where the handlers should be shown.

it need to be like the design studio like. www.lupalook.com, www.scrapblog.com.

I dont want to you to sit and write a code for me. Just i need a general idea how to do that, and any examples or tutorials. That would be very very helpful for me.

Thanks in advance....

when the image is loaded into your movieclip initially the correct proportions are there for you to grab.

w = movieclipname._width;
h = movieclipname._height;

p = w / h;

then on an onenterframe just multiply the height by p as you're resizing to get the width in accordance to the height, and set the movieclips width to it.

hope that helps smile.gif

The above code will set your width based on height. If you're looking to contain the image within a given area though, then you'll need to ensure that both the width and height are within limits. Here's how:

CODE
var sizeMultiplier = MAX_WIDTH / newImage._width;
if((newImage._height * sizeMultiplier) > MAX_HEIGHT) { sizeMultiplier = TH_HEIGHT / newImage._height };
newImage._width *= sizeMultiplier;
newImage._height *= sizeMultiplier;


This is AS2. If you're building this in AS3, then you'll need to delete the underscores from the width and height properties.

Optionally, you could just use a Loader (AS2) or UILoader (AS3) component, and set the scaleContent property to true.
