browser problem

Hi this is a weird problem for me.  When I use the ie developer toolbar to
resize the flash all appears as it should. When I open the browser window in
the actual monitor it will stretch the swf unless the monitor is set to the
highest resloution it is capable of. I've tried publishing with noscale and
noborder as well as default an it always does this. It seems as those
parameters aren't making any difference in the way the swf reacts. What I
would assume and want is that the flash never stretches to accomodate. If
the browser is bigger than the flash just has more space on either side, If
samller than the browser window must scroll.

movie is at www.awdwest.com/indexorig.html

the movie size is 900x600. easy to see the coffee cup is stretched
horizontally.

thanks for any help.

The flash loads up the correct size without scaling (or stretching) on my
computer, FF3, IE7, IE6, IE 5.5, Safari PC Beta 3, Opera 9.  I looked at both
the html page you reference, and opening the swf directly.  None of them scale.

I am running FlashPlayer 10 Beta2.  Perhaps it is a flashplayer bug in the
version you are running?

"Thanks for the reply...the problem comes when a widescreen monitor is set
to LESS than it's max resolution. Browser window stretches. the swf file.

The only way I can reproduce what you describe is to choose a resolution that
is not the same aspect ratio as the monitors default.  My widescreen monitor's
native res, and max res is 1440x900.  The coffee cup will appear stretched if I
change the resolution to 1280x900, which is a different aspect ratio.  
Otherwise, if I select 960x600, which is the same aspect ratio, the coffee cup
is not stretched.
