[Swftools-common] clipping a swf file - swfbbox/swfcombine

[Mark A. Lowe]

Hey guys,

 

I have the following swf file :
http://www.mmr.com.au/swf-size-issue/front.swf

 

The original FLA was set up with the dimensions of 900x1273. I am loading
this into a page-flip viewer but I'm having sizing issues.

I've used swfbbox -B and it says the Real Movie Size is 977.90 x 1346.35.
This must be due to the elements being animated outside the bounding box.

 

Is there any way to clip the file so when it load it into my page-flip Flash
application it comes in at 900x1273?

I've tried to clip with swfbbox -O  -c etc but I get the error messages
"Move tags not supported with -c".

I've also tried swfcombine dummy -X 900 -Y 1273 but to no avail. When I open
up the generated SWFs they just close automatically.

 

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated as it's for an important
client with a tight deadline!

 

Many thanks,

 

Mark.
