Guest

I have created a hyperlink to a swf file and it opens in a new window. I want
to find out how I can resize the swf show in a new window - the size of the
swf show is very big.

Also, can i open a hyperlink into a table?

thx.

Yes, you can make windows that are resizeable or open at a particularly-set
size Try the spawn add-in on www.jimcoaddins.com to make a popup window
which is fully customisable.

To resize the swf file, do this in edit mode, just adjust the size of the
'plug-in' object in your FP edit mode. Although the original author of the
SWF might have made it the large size, and that can't be changed unless you
get a copy of Macromedia Flash to edit the file. In anycase you'd need the
raw file (*.fla or *.dcr (Director file) or something) as swf (Shockwave
flash) is the 'executable' file and possibly not editable.

Yes, you can put a link in a table. (i don't really know what you mean by
that), links are made between files, so you can link to a file that has a
table as part of its content.

So what you should really do is link to a html file that contains the SWF
plugin/file, not link directly to the swf itself. Then you can control the
size of the window containing the html page containing the swf file.
