DisplayArea clip is scaled - make sure it is at 100%.

yup - just as suspected - your clip is scaled - select it with your Transform panel open - you'll
see it is scaled over 140%.

select the instance (not the library symbol) and the transform panel will show you 2 dialog boxes
(width and height) in percentages - just type in 100% while the clip is selected.

I have the following action in "frame.swf" on Frame 1:

loadMovie("home.swf", "DisplayArea");

My "home.swf" is exactly 730 x 400, but when it loads into frame.swf, it's
much larger. Is there anyway to set the size of the loaded .swf?

I can't see where to change the percentage of the scaling. DisplayArea is just a blank movieclip.

I actually fixed it by deleting DisplayArea and remaking it, but instead of
leaving it blank, making it one pixel.

But I still can't see how to change it's scaling. Can you please be more
specific? I tried selecting it with my transform panel open both in the library
and the instance on the stage. Neither gave me a scaling option. I'm currently
using FlashMXPro 2004 v7.0
