problem with projector

[umr]

At home I work on a computer with a display resolution 1280/1024.When I make a
projector 800/600 pixels (centered) it is fine on my computer but when I try to
see it in my laptop which has a different resolution my projector is lopsided.
How can I make a projector that will be centered in all resolutions.

There is a Center option in the create projector Options, or inspector
(depending on version)

I do click the center option but it does not work

I have created a director application i have all the files saved in one folder
and on the root of that folder i have the projector. When i put the cd in it
comes up with an xp box asking me were i want to locate or watch my missing
files in. i fi choose slideshow it just shows me pictures of files i have in
the folder with the cast, video etc

There have been a number of postings on managing linked resources.

Throwing everything in a single folder is a brute force approach, you
could have your projector movie go to a main movie locateed in the
assets folder.

on exitFrame
go to movie the pathName &"assets\Main"
end

Managing resources is a bit of an art and many people struggle to get to grips
with linking files etc. The best way I have found is to setup a number of
directories pertaining to relevant media resources and then using lingo to
specifically define the 'searchPaths' syntax to avoid any linking errors. This
syntax is a good failsafe when dealing with external media although there is no
substitute for taking time and effort to make the file and folder structure the
most efficient and cohesive for the project.
