Re: [Swftools-common] Problem with a script

Hi André,

> I have a problem with the following script

swfc calculates the bounding box of a SWF file from
the objects on the scene.
Since you put the button at 0,0 initially:

>   .put buttout=butt_outdraw scale=19%           

and this button also extends into the negative y direction:

> L 4.1524273,-6.02268

your final movie bounding box will be this (from swfdump):

> [HEADER]        Movie width: 160.30 (left offset: -0.30)
> [HEADER]        Movie height: 133.90 (top offset: -3.90)

As, however, your red background

> .box fond width=160 height=130 color=gray fill=red line=1

does *not* end to y=-3.90, you see a red line of the "real"
(black) SWF background on top.

Three solutions:

1.) Specify a bounding box in the .flash header:
        
    .flash filename="bug.swf" fps=50 bbox=160x130

2.) Set the SWF background to red (which also enables you to
    remove the "fond" object):
    
    .flash filename="bug.swf" fps=50 background=red

3.) (recommended) Do both 1+2
