Screen Resolutions

[Doodles webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

I have attached the following code to CD's to adjust Screen Resolutions, but it seems to conflict with my clients computers, it either shuts down their screen or does'nt run at all. Has anyone else had this problem?



I got this from macromedia.com.
You put it in the first dir file.

on startMovie
NewRes (1024,768)
put the ticks into t
repeat while the ticks < t + the frameTempo
end repeat
play movie "MovieName.dir"
end

To revert the users computer back you type the following:

on stopMovie
restoreRes()
put the ticks into t
repeat while the ticks < t + the frameTempo
end repeat
end

ok what the hell is newres?? if it's a handler then we need to see that part
to understand what is happening. However if you're using something like
buddyapi to change the screen res, check the docs and you'll find that this
is a little dodgy to do as not all computers are setup to let you change the
resolution of the screen on the fly, they might be setup to require a
restart before it's accepted, sad but true. :-)

I've been a flabbergasted a few times recently when I've checked out
friend's and/or client's machines and seen that they're running their new,
beautiful 17" and even 19" displays at 800x600. The latter looks extremely
silly. Maybe somebody should write a resolution sniffer (if they haven't
already) that we could all put on our sites. When it detected 800x600, it
would pop up a window that said something like," If you're on a 15" monitor,
it's time to do your part to resurrect the economy - run out and buy a new
one. If you're on a larger monitor already, FOR GOD'S SAKE CHANGE YOUR
SCREEN RESOLUTION!

to look to most users who I now believe are using a 800x600 screen
resolution. If in fact most users are using 800x600 I probably would have
built my site at that resolution and switched back and forth between
resolutions to make sure the site also looked good in the higher resolution.
My site looks fine in the higher resolution but not so good in the lower
resolution. Is there any way to correct for this problem now that the site
has already been built? Thanks so much, any information on this topic would
be greatly appreciated.
