Resizing chat app in browser window

[mchilson]

Hi,

Just purchased your application and had a couple of questions.

1. I have tried to resize the chat app and it works if I am using pixel values but I want to use percentages like height=80% width=100%
If I do this the sizes get all messed up. I want to fill teh brwser window with the application. What am I doin gwrong?

2. If I want to use a .jpg for the logo on the app where do I need to put it and do I need to put the full URL in the client.xml file. I can't seemt o get this to work.

Thanks!

Thanks for your purchasing.


1. if you using height=80% width=100%, I suggest you to add a parameter in the html code ,
<param name=scale value=noscale>

a sample:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/s...rsion=6,0,0,0" width="100%" height="100%">
    <param name=movie value="123flashchat.swf">
    <param name=quality value=high>
    <param name=menu value=false>
    <param name=scale value=noscale>
    <param name=bgcolor value="#FFFFFF">
    <embed src="123flashchat.swf" scale=noscale quality=high menu=false pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/...hockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" Width="100%", Height="100%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
    </embed> 
</object>

2. you should put the .jpg file to the dir :
<123flashchat.swf dir>/skin/<your_skin_name>/


hope it can help,if you have any question , don't hesitate to tell us.

Thanks Daniel,

Follow-up question for you. When I resize the chat client it just adjust the TOTAL size of the chat app it it scales it and does not just make the chat area larger. Do I need to go into the source to modify this?

BTW, here are a couple of suggestions from my users and myself. I understand you get suggestions all the time but I wanted to pass these on to hopefully help make your chat client the BEST!

1. Make the chat area scaleable so when you resize the chat app only the chat area get larger and everything else around it stays the same size.

2. In the chat area make the username and their message on the same line. While this is eisier to read it waist alot of space since you cannot make the chat area larger.

3. Ability to drop emoticons into the text like you canin this forum software.

Thanks for a GREAT piece of software!
Mike

thank you Mike for your valuable suggestions!

1) Yes it's in our schedule to make 800x600 and 1024X768 client for you guys to add more alternatives!

2) "make the username and their message on the same line." Ok, we'll add it in version 1.4!

3) This feature will be postponed until flash player 7 becomes more popular bks images in textfield is a feature flash player 6 doesn't have.
