4096
4096. What does this number got to do with SWFs ? I’ve been working on a project which involved having to embed a pretty large SWF on a HTML page. How large ? Well.. Little above 6400 pixels in height actually. If you are wondering what ridiculous experiment this might be, i’ll be posting more about it very soon. Ok..Getting back to our topic of 4096, when i tried to embed that over sized swf on a page, i couldn’t see any content below a certain height. This height, with much difficulty, i found to be 4096 pixels. The contents present inside the SWF were of 6000+ px height, however just after 4096px all i could see was whiteness. Yes. Solid white. No problem with embedding, since i tried both SWFObject and also Adobe’s embed code. What is this mysterious white fill ? Can’t you embed a swf larger that 4096px, eventhough containers inside Flash/Flex can be resized to really huge sizes ? A bit of a childish limitation i think.
Dai,
I will give you one example, If you are on the ground zero level(height = 0) then u have 100% visibiltiy. If you go up a mountain, i.e as height goes on increasing visibility wil get decreased. if you go up a mountain of about 4000 feet, you will be standing in middle of a mist fall or clouds which will be WHITE in color and will obviously u wont have any visibility, all you can see is whiteness.
The same thing might have happened in your ridiculous experiment da.
DDDD
Try coming down.
Nice day…
Forgot to ask this in my previous comment da…
Seriously for what the crappy thing you are going to have such a largeeeeeeeeee swf in a page and which user who has such a big monitor screen is going to view it??
And more importantly how did u create such a large swf? i want to see it.. what is there in that swf??
I am really wondering da…
You have to be the extremes of mokkai!
And i’ll post about that project soon, the one involving large swfs…
