Full screen program with options on top?

[techgeek]

Hi. I had a simple idea and want to create a program based on it. At the moment, I have 8 seperate SWF Files that I want to put into the program. My main focus is getting the layout fixed.




Basically, all i need is to have an options tab on top with general options like "home" or "file #1", etc. and once they click on that option the swf file will play in the middle of the page. Also, I want the program to be Full-Screen.

How might I go about doing this? I have created the top options but I do not know what size it should be to work on all resolutions. Should I make it like 1000 x 800? Also the files that are going to open in the middle are about 700 x 400 and I need them to open inside the page in the middle.

I appreciate any help.

Thanks

Dear techgeek,

Thank you for your good ideas.
I will be happy if i can help you. The following is my little suggestions:

If you want the size both main swf and middle swf to be fixed, your idea for it seems not be right in my view. You should know every user has set his monitor with different pixels size, 1024*768, 800*600 or others, and the swf with fullscreen will be matched to user setting.

To obtain the fixed size for it, i think that this is a resize problem. When your flash is scaled any time, every part in it should reset its size in program.

There is a Stage object in flash, you can use it to set the size when flash stage change its size, this can be realized by setting an event listener. Please ask to a flash programmer near you for more help about it.

Hope you will resove your problem soon!
